Capture opportunities in global commodities

Commodities are standardized natural materials used in energy, food and industrial production. Trading them lets you speculate on price movements of assets like metals, oil, wheat or sugar. With Premier Markets, you trade these prices digitally without owning the physical asset.

Commodities add diversification and can help hedge inflation, as assets like gold and oil often retain value during uncertainty. Their prices move with global supply and demand, creating liquid, transparent markets. Traders can find opportunities across sectors influenced by geopolitics, weather, economic trends and consumption shifts.

A commodity CFD lets you trade price movements without owning the underlying asset. Profit or loss is based on the difference between opening and closing prices.

Futures CFDs expire according to the contract month and close automatically. Cash CFDs do not expire and roll over with a price adjustment.

Margin depends on the commodity and market conditions. Traders should check live margin rates on the platform and use Premier Markets calculators for planning.

Oil prices react strongly to supply levels, OPEC decisions, geopolitical events, inventory data, energy demand and major economic announcements.

Commonly traded markets include: Oil & Natural Gas: driven by supply, demand and geopolitics Gold & Silver: safe-haven and inflation-hedge metals Corn, Wheat, Coffee, Sugar: affected by weather and harvest cycles Copper & Platinum: tied to manufacturing and economic growth These markets are favored for their liquidity, clear pricing and sensitivity to global trends.
