What are goods?
Commodities include metals and energy resources that are used to produce other goods and services.
Metals (such as gold, silver, copper) and energy resources (such as oil and natural gas) are categorized as “hard commodities,” which can be mined or extracted from nature. Because of their role in the economy and unique characteristics, commodity prices can move independently of other assets, such as stocks, providing traders and investors with an opportunity to diversify their portfolios. Metals and energy resources are essential to industry, and their price is important to the global economy.

How to trade commodities?
Commodity trading does not require physically purchasing or selling the commodity. Instead, traders speculate on price changes using derivatives.
Commodities are limited resources, and unlike many other assets, their price is primarily affected by changes in supply and demand. When supply increases, prices tend to fall, and vice versa – when supply decreases, prices may rise. The demand and supply of commodities are affected by various factors, such as climate conditions, economic activity, and the geopolitical situation.
