Learning resources for tech transitioning into trading

I'm about to start working for a natgas trading desk as a "strat" who will be working on carrying out fundamental analysis and building the fundamental analysis platform (for commodity trading). I've been working in tech for the last 6 years and this is my chance to get closer to the trading desk. I want to learn more about trading and eventually may transitioning into trading. Which books/resources is good to get started on this? Had a background in EE, so I don't mind going full-on math. TIA
