Commodity 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.

ACCESS THE WORLD'S MOST LIQUID COMMODITY MARKETS

Up to 20 CFD Commodities are available online to trade. Each CFD is derived from an underlying futures contract but does not carry the same name or symbol as the future.

Commodity CFDs – a new investment choice

For Forex or Equity traders looking for a simple way to diversify their portfolio or seeking new ways to hedge their investments, Commodity CFDs offer a new investment opportunity. Commodity CFDs allow powerful, leveraged trading on the Futures market, with lower levels of collateral needed. This reduced entry level, combined with lower trade unit sizes, means flexible trading across the global commodities markets.

Commodity CFDs are available through all of Saxo Bank’s integrated trading platforms; the web-based SaxoWebTrader, the downloadable SaxoTrader and the SaxoMobileTrader, which allows trading on BlackBerry® smartphones, iPhones and other suitable mobile devices.
