    Are you talking about Natural Gas? How on earth can Natural gas be priced at zero? Perhaps you are talking about spark spreads? or oil crack spreads?
     
  3. how can a commodity go to zero? We do not have an infinite supply of natural gas, we have about 10 years worth(in the US) from what I've heard...the bottom I believe would be when something disrupts that massive supply that we have or demand rises.

    i bought some NGV0 at 4.00, 3.90, 3.80, 3.70
    anybody else buying it for a short term bounce at least? or everyone is short?
    i think its too oversold
    maybe this will become a long term investment but we'll see :)

  7. A commodity price can get very close to zero.

    In 1956 onion prices for a 50 lb bag went from $2.75 to $0.10. People were only willing to pay the $0.10 because the burlap bags the 50 lb of onions came in were worth at least $0.10.

    Note that onions are the only commodity in which futures trading is illegal.
     
  8. Nenner says, "Natural Gas will fall to $1.70/MCF"

    I've got an illiquid investment that's basically "piggybacking" with the major players (chesapeake, devon, st. mary's, etc.,)

    The income checks are so thin they only have one side at the moment.:eek: :D :(
