Frequently asked questions
What are CFD commodities & how do I trade them?
Commodity (or ‘commodities’) CFD trading is possibly the oldest form of trading – especially futures. They allow you to trade on the performance of commodities instead of directly owning the assets.
This refers to buying, selling and trading on the performance of hard commodities that are mined (such as oil, gold & gas) and soft commodities that are harvested (such as coffee & sugar).
Commodities are commonly discussed in four groups: precious metals (gold, silver, palladium, copper), agriculture (coffee, cocoa), Energies (Brent Crude Oil, WTI oil, Natural Gas) and livestock (meat).
What precious metal CFDs do you offer?
We offer CFDs on gold, silver, platinum, copper and more on our Commodities page. Precious metals such as gold and silver can be considered one of the first ever traded commodities. Investors and traders generally view gold as a safe haven during economic, political or social uncertainty due to their relatively stable demand and the world’s limited supply.
How are our precious metals priced?
The unit of measure for precious metals are in troy ounces. Please refer to the market specification for precious metals to see the contract sizes for Gold, Silver, Palladium and Platinum against the US dollar.
What does ‘rolling commodities’ mean?
A ‘rolling’ option or ‘roll yield’ is type of return in commodities investing that involves the practice of exiting the current position and immediately entering a similar position in the next contract. This allows for traders to take advantage of the difference in the price of shorter-dated commodities, which are closer to maturity commodity contracts and their longer-dated counterparts.
