Eoin Treacy's view In the absence of an upward dynamic to confirm the return of demand in the region of $4.25, I placed a tight stop on my long natural gas position to minimise my downside risk. This was triggered today at $4.196 against my purchase on the 11th at $4.318.

I have been trailing a stop up behind my rough rice long and tightened it this afternoon as wheat began to pull back. The stop was triggered at $10.955 against purchases at $10.53 and $10.09 on August 9th and July 22nd respectively. All prices quoted include spread-bet dealing costs.
