What is Oil Trading & Energy CFD?

What is Oil Trading?

Crude oil is one of the world's most important commodities, widely used in transportation, industrial production, and power generation.

Its price is influenced by multiple factors including supply and demand changes, OPEC production decisions, macroeconomic data, and geopolitical events.

The oil market is highly liquid and volatile, making it a key focus for many day traders and trend followers.

What is Energy CFD?

Energy Contracts for Difference (CFDs) are derivative instruments that allow you to trade on price movements without owning physical oil.

  • You can control a larger contract value with relatively small capital (leveraged trading)
  • Opportunities can be found whether the market rises or falls through long or short positions
  • Suitable for incorporating energy products into a multi-asset portfolio including forex, indices, and precious metals to diversify strategies

Please note: Leverage amplifies both profits and losses - proper position sizing and risk management strategies are crucial.
