What are the prospects for LNG trading going forward? Would now be a good time to move into this area?

So in currently interviewing for an LNG trading role but from all of the info I can find, it seems to be a fairly underdeveloped market.

I am fairly junior in my career so I'm not looking so much at the short term but I would like to know if now is a good time to move into the area?

The role is with a big player in the national wholesale energy markets.
