Energies

Crude oil — the market that reacts first when supply, politics or demand shift.

What you are trading

Energies

Oil CFDs track the price of a barrel of crude. You never take delivery: the position is cash settled against the price, which is what makes a barrel tradable from a trading account.

Traded as a CFD: you take a position on the price, you never own the underlying asset.

  • Quoted per barrel in US dollars.

  • Inventory reports, production decisions and shipping disruptions move this market quickly.

  • Energy prices can move sharply in a short window, so position size matters more than usual here.
