Thanks to today's price action in NG, I was able to trade myself out of the Feb/Mar calendar spreads leaving me with an acceptable loss. I am grateful as the spread has been on steroids lately.

I know couple of energy day traders happy with the current moves (especially as such moves are quite technical in the very short time frame).

Why is today NG Feb14 up 6.5% and Mar14 about 5.0% "only"? What is the reason for the curve tanking that much lately?

I would expect the March contract being the most critical one.

Thanks for the info.
Bought back my Mar 6 calls for break-even. Looking to sell Mar 7 calls (for a better premium than I've sold my Mar 6).

You are not the only one -:)
There is still a lot of volatility priced in the premiums. We are down 1% and the option premiums are still ballistic. Markets expecting upside move?
