Frequently Asked Questions
Why is natural gas so volatile?
Natural gas pricing is driven by highly variable factors like weather, seasonal demand, and storage levels. Unlike forex, there is no central bank to stabilize prices, leading to extreme price swings.
Do all prop firms offer natural gas?
No, not all firms include natural gas in their symbol list. It is considered a higher-risk instrument, and some firms exclude it to limit their exposure.
What lot size should I use for natural gas on a prop account?
Start with the minimum lot size (0.01) until you understand the volatility. Natural gas can move the equivalent of a full day's forex range in minutes.
