Energies

The most simple way to gain exposure to the energy market is through a CFD on the underlying commodity, such as crude oil, heating oil or gas oil. One of the easiest ways to trade on oil prices is by using contracts for difference (CFDs). Like gold CFDs, oil is one of the most commonly traded markets which means that you should be able to get in or out whenever you want irrespective of the size of the trade.

Crude oil CFDs are available on two main products, either the US WTI/Light Crude as traded on the New York Exchange (NYMEX), or the Brent crude which is traded on the Intercontinental Exchange (ICE).
