trading commodities

With the run up and then precipitous fall of oil in 2008 commodities have gotten a large amount of coverage in the news. A commodity is simply any natural resource like oil, gold, soybeans, or wheat that is widely used throughout the world. Before the Internet trading these commodity futures was reserved couple of for the elite, but now the average person can trade these speculative financial tools.

Use|

Use} the intermediate weekly trade triangles to determine the trend. You’ll want to commence with the intermediate chart to ascertain the trend. So if there’s a “Green Trade Triangle” then this is suggesting the intermediate direction of the market is higher. If there’s a “Red Trade Triangle” it is lower. The way it works is that when the markets break above the highest high of the last 4 weeks you will get a buy signal or a “Green Triangle.” When it drops below the lowest low of the last 4 weeks you’ll get a sell signal or a “Red Triangle.”

Use the daily triangles for timing the markets. You will need to use the daily triangles to time your entries so if you may need to buy when you have a green triangles on both the once a week signals and the daily signals. You will sell when they are red on both.

Set a stop loss. Your stop loss will be set at the highest high of the last 4 days if you’re selling the market and the lowest low if you are buying the market.

Use seasonal signals. You’ll be able to find a seasonal guide to commodity trading in the “Commodity Traders Almanac” or at Moore Research (MRCI.com). Both of these will tell you the yearly seasonal patterns that commodities undergo. As an instance gold has an inclination to rise during Sep till December. In this period seventy percent of gold is sold during the Xmas season. Whereas oil has an inclination to rise preceding the summer months.

Trading commodities isn’t for the masses. So make sure to begin in a simulator and not with real cash. Do this for at minimum 3-6 months before you begin. Always make certain to use a stop loss and don’t risk more than 2% per trade.
