With OANDA, you can access commodity trading as financial derivatives (CFDs). This allows you to take a position on price movements without owning the underlying asset. You can 'buy' (go long) if you expect prices to rise, or 'sell' (go short) if you expect them to fall. Before trading, it is vital to research the external factors—such as geopolitical events or supply chain shifts—that influence commodity volatility.
Take a position on our full range of commodities CFDs instruments using our intuitive OANDA platform and apps for mobile and tablet devices.
Our pricing engine aggregates live prices, in real time, from our liquidity providers and calculates a mid-point. A custom-built pricing algorithm automatically calculates the spread symmetrically around the mid-point (the average between the buy and sell price), for each tradable instrument on our trading platform. This mid-point fluctuates throughout the day as market prices change.

A commodity is any physical good that can be bought or sold on the commodities market. Commodities work in a similar way to other financial markets. The exchange value of commodities is often affected by changes in supply and demand of the goods being traded. Commodities can be traded in the physical market or as a derivative.
