How does Commodity CFD trading work?

A Contract for Difference (CFD) is an agreement between the buyer and the seller. It means that the seller will pay the buyer the difference between the commodity’s current price and its price at the point the contract specifies.

By trading CFDs on commodities, investors are speculating whether the value of the instrument will rise or fall.

What is the difference between CFD trading and investing?

The difference between CFD trading and investing is that CFDs are leveraged. Investing, on the other hand, is non-leveraged.

It is for this reason that CFDs are preferred for both day and short term trading strategies.

What are the benefits of Commodity CFD trading?

One of the main benefits of CFD trading is that you’re trading on the expectation of a price movement, so you don’t have to actually buy (or take delivery of) the underlying asset. Because you can take a short position (expecting the price to decrease) as well as a long one (expecting the price to increase), you can still make a profit when the commodity falls in value — not just when it rises.

This gives commodity CFD traders greater flexibility and more opportunities to earn from market movements. By the same token, you should be aware of the potential for losses when going long or short on a commodity’s price.

Every kind of trading carries risk, but commodities are often considered high risk. This is because many factors can affect their price, like inflation and the latest confidence in the global economy. On the other hand, the rewards can be greater if you make a profit as commodities are leveraged (which lets you trade a larger amount of a commodity).

Leverage is similar to a loan, meaning that we'll lend you a set amount of money so that you can buy more of an asset, and earn a larger profit on any successful trades although it does mean that your losses are greater too. You can trade CFDs on UK Brent oil, US cruide oil and US natural gas with a leverage up to 1:200.

The maximum possible leverage for residents of Kenya is 1:400, regardless of instrument or account type.
