So You Think It's Time to Buy UNG? Let's go to The Chart!

In all of my years of trading I have never seen so much attention given to natural gas by the retail investor. Nat gas has been trading at historic low prices recently so it must be ready to skyrocket, right? Well for you traders out there that like me are old enough to remember the sugar market of many years ago, you have to admit natural gas and especially UNG is starting to show some similarities.

So where is UNG headed? Let's see what our MarketClub tools tell us....
