Natural gas futures traders were able to focus on more menial tasks Wednesday, such as sock drawer rearranging, as activity in the September contract was deemed to be “more than a little bit on the light side” by at least one participant. While putting in a respectable 15-cent range on the day, the prompt month lacked any real motivation on its way to a regular session close of $6.220, up 1.9 cents from Tuesday’s close.
