Commodities CFDs

Trade Commodity CFDs online

Commodity CFDs are the new and easy way to trade commodities markets. Now investing in oil, grains, softs, energies, gold and other precious metals is as simple as trading any other CFD products. CFD Commodities give traders and investors direct exposure to the underlying commodity with the trading features of a CFD.

A simple alternative to Futures trading

Instead of trading on the Futures exchanges – with sometimes prohibitive lot sizes and high collateral requirements – investors can now access leveraged commodity trading with reduced collateral through Commodity CFDs. For instance, the lot size of a US Crude Oil CFD is 25 barrels, compared to the Futures contract size of 1,000 barrels, which means easier and more flexible trading.
