Introduction To Trading Energy Commodities
Economists believe money makes the world go round. Most other business people would argue that oil and gas are what powers the global economy.
Oil is the foundation of consumerism; whether it’s making plastics, powering manufacturing plants or fueling ships and planes, energy is what powers progress. The price of energy products is considered a global benchmark for economic prosperity. Because of how essential oil and gas are to the worldwide economy, they are among the most liquid trading assets in the world and traded in all major financial hubs and timezones. The price of oil can experience volatility not just because of fluctuations in demand, but also due to logistical or geopolitical factors affecting supply. Oil is produced in only a few regions of the world and is incredibly complex to extract and refine.
The Benefits Of Trading Energy Products CFDs
No physical ownership necessary
With CFDs, you can get exposure to 1,000s of barrels of oil and hundreds of cubic feet of natural gas with a click of a button. There is no need to take physical delivery or pay storage fees.
Go long or short
When using CFDs, you’re able to open short positions, which allow you to hedge against a contracting global economy and speculate on energy prices falling.
Use leverage to decrease capital requirements
You’re able to leverage your positions by as much as 1:0 on commodities. Using leverage reduces how much of your account balance is reserved to open a CFD position.
Trade energy products at any time of the day

Easily open and close positions
Energy products are the most liquid financial assets in the world. By trading CFDs online, you can open and close your trades in a moments notice. There is no need to negotiate a deal with buyers and sellers.
