Book Description
This great "how to" book covers the various mechanics of natural gas trading, including the physical (cash) market for natural gas production, transportation, distribution, and consumption. The heart of the text is the definition and demonstration of financial trading tools and techniques. It closes with discussion of more complex structures of trading and the author's philosophy on how a risk management department should function within a natural gas trading company.

wish there is more, 2008-08-12
I work in a gas trading software company and this is a good book to read to learn the business. Just wish there is more detail info on the different types of trades out there.

timeless info, 2008-02-17
provides a very good basic understanding of how gas is traded.
just enough technical detail to be useful, without getting into the "Greeks" of determining option value.

A Great Book to Learn Natural Gas Trading, 2006-08-04
Even if you do not have a solid understanding of derivatives, this book is really good explaining step by step how the different derivatives are used for hedging natural gas; regardless if you are the producer, trader, or end user. The author gives many examples of how each derivative works. I highly recommend this book if you are starting out as a junior trader, risk products trader, supply planner, etc.

educational sources for practical trading purposes, 2005-07-16
I have not seen any book that describes its domain with such generous detail and is geared for real life trading. The contents may not be enough for those who trade only financial energy instruments, but it is indeed a good course material for the market makers, and hedgers, namely end users and producers. I highly recommend this book to those who are involved in natural gas industry.
