What is Commodities trading?
Product Questions and Answers
Futures exchanges are markets where financial institutions and individuals can trade a variety of commodities.
The world's major commodity exchanges are mainly located in the United States:
- Chicago Board of Trade (CBOT):a commodity futures exchange based in Chicago and operated by CME.
- Intercontinental Exch (ICE):an exchange based in Atlanta, focused on energy commodities.
- New York Mercantile Exc (NYMEX):an exchange located in New York City and operated by CME.
The most common way for trading commodities is to buy or sell a futures contract. The price of a commodity futures contract is standardised, meaning the underlying instrument’s quantity (pound, ounce, barrel, etc) is predetermined and appears the same for all market providers.
A futures contract also obligates the holder to buy or sell a commodity at a predetermined price on a delivery date in the future.
In CFD trading, once a commodity futures contract expires, a trader can either close the trade and open a new trade, or alternatively, allow the contract to roll over to the next month (if possible).
