LEARN TO TRADE FOREX

At TROYMarkets We Offer CFDs On Our MT5 Platforms To
Trade Commodities. This Form Of Trading Allows You To
Speculate On The Changing Prices Of Commodities Without
Owning The Physical Commodity You're Trading. Essentially, A CFD Is A Contract Between The Trader And The Broker.

For Example, If You Opened A Long (Buy) CFD Trade On Gold
When It Was Valued At $1,505, And You Closed The Trade When
The Price Rose To $1,525, You Would Make A Profit $20. If The
Price Fell To $1,500, You Would Make A Loss Of $5. In Basic Terms,
You Are Paying Or Receiving The Difference Between The
Opening And Closing Price Of The Commodity Being Traded.

A HISTORY OF

• • • • COMMODITIES TRADING

THERE ARE TRACES OF COMMODITIES TRADING AS FAR
BACK AS ANCIENT CHINA AND 4500 BC WHERE THE
SUMERIANS (MODERN DAY IRAQ) USED JUGS FILLED WITH
CLAY TOKENS THAT WERE SHAPED TO REPRESENT THE
ANIMAL OR CROP THEY HAD IN THEIR POSSESSION. THIS
EVOLVED OVER TIME UNTIL 1611 WHEN THE AMSTERDAM
STOCK EXCHANGE WAS CREATED. IT WAS THE WORLD'S
FIRST STOCK EXCHANGE AND WAS ORIGINALLY A MARKET
FOR COMMODITY EXCHANGGE.

THE MOST SIGNIFICANT DEVELOPMENT IN COMMODITIES
TRADING OCCURRED IN 1848 WHEN THE CHICAGO BOARD
OF TRADE (CBOT) WAS SET UP ITS REGULATED
STRUCTURE PROVIDED THE EXCHANGE OF FUTURES AND
OPTIONS CONTRACTS.

COMMODITIES EXCHANGES ARE NOW LOCATED WORLDWIDE WITH SOME SPECIALISING IN MULTIPLE COMMODITIES OR A LONE MATERIAL. MAJOR COMMODITY MARKET INCLUDE THE CHICAGO MERCANTILE EXCHANGE (CME). NEW YORK MERCANTILE EXCHANGE (NYMEX), LONDON METAL EXCHANGE (LME), THE MULTI COMMODITY EXCHANGE OF INDIA LTD (MCX) AND THE AUSTRALIAN STOCK EXCHANGE (ASE).COMMODITIES TRADING WAS PREVIOUSLY LIMITED TO PROFESSIONAL TRADERS AS IT REQUIRED A SUBSTANTIAL AMOUNT OF TIME, RESOURCES
AND EXPERTISE. TECHNOLOGY AND THE INTRODUCTION OF ADDITIONAL COMMODITIES TRADING PRODUCTS HAVE CHANGED THIS. INDIVIDUALS CANS NOW TRADE COMMODITIES USING
ADVANCED ONLINE TRADING PLATFORMS SUCH AS METATRADER 4 AND 5. THE WAYS TO TRADE COMMODITIES HAVE ALSO EXPANDED TO INCLUDE DERIVATIVE PRODUCTS SUCH AS
OPTIONS, FUTURES CONTRACTS, CONTRACT FOR DIFFERENCE (CFDS) AND EXCHANGE TRADED FUNDS (ETFS).

SPECIAL CHARACTERISTICS OF
THE COMMODITIES MARKET

A Commodity Is A Tangible Good That Can Be Traded Or Exchanged For Products Of Comparable Value. They Consist Of Hard Commodities And Soft Commodities. Hard Commodities Are Natural Resources That Are Mined Or Extracted Such As Metals And Energy Resources While Soft Commodities Are Agricultural Products Or Live stock.

Metals

Precious Metals Are Rare And Remain Valuable Due To Their Infinite Lifespan And The Absence Of The Prospect Of Oversupply. The Most Traded Metals Are Gold, Silver, Platinum And Palladium. Popular Metals Such As Gold And Silver Can Be Traded Against Major Currencies In A Similar Manner To Forex Trading.

Energy Agriculture And Live stock

Includes Oil, Natural Gas And Other Petroleum Based Fuel Products. Crude Oil Can Be Refined Into Petrol, Chemicals, Lubricant And Other Products Making It The Most Traded Energy Source. Brent Crude And West Texas Intermediate (WTI) Are The Two Major Types Used To Benchmark Global Oil Prices.

Agriculture And Live stock

They Play A Pivotal Role In The Economy, Especially In Developing Countries Which Rely Heavily On Agricultural Exports For Their Economic Growth And Development.

One Of The Most Interesting Characteristics Of The Commodities Market
Are The Factors Which Impact Pricing. Directly Related To Supply And
Demand, These Include Adverse Weather Conditions Such As Natural
Disasters And Severe Climate Changes. The Ability To Access Commodities Using Online Trading Platforms Has

Allowed Individual Traders To Benefit From Them. Commodities Are Often

Utilised For Portfolio Diversification As They Are Generally Negatively
Correlated With Stock Prices. They Are Also Considered To Be An Excellent
Hedging Tool Against Inflation As Commodity Prices Rise When Inflation Is Accelerating. Similarly, Many Traders Invest In Commodities To Hedge
Against Geopolitical Uncertainties Such As Wars, Political Events And
Trade Agreements.
