Available Commodity Markets

Precious Metals Trading

We offer trading in gold, silver, platinum, and palladium. Gold is quoted as XAUUSD with spreads starting at 0.3 pips during peak London trading hours. Silver trades as XAGUSD with typical spreads near 0.8 pips. Platinum and palladium spreads are wider due to lower liquidity. Contracts adhere to international standards: gold contracts cover 100 troy ounces per lot, silver contracts 5,000 troy ounces. Micro lots are available for smaller trades.

Energy Commodities

Crude oil options include WTI and Brent contracts. WTI features average spreads of 0.5 pips during active sessions. Brent oil presents similar volatility with slightly higher spreads. Natural gas contracts have variable spreads influenced by market conditions. Our platform integrates economic calendars highlighting inventory releases and geopolitical events impacting energy prices. Guaranteed stop losses are available to mitigate risk in these volatile markets.

Agricultural Products

Corn, wheat, soybeans, and coffee represent our agricultural commodities. These markets show seasonal price patterns due to harvest cycles. Corn contracts are measured in bushels with standard lot sizes, while coffee follows ICE exchange specifications. Weather updates and crop reports are accessible within the platform to aid analysis. Trading hours correspond to respective exchanges, including overnight session availability.

Platform Setup and Configuration

Our MT4 and MT5 trading terminals support all commodities offered. After account approval, download links appear in the client portal. Installation requires Windows 7 or above, with at least 512MB RAM and a stable internet connection. To configure the platform, open Market Watch, right-click, and select “Show All” to reveal all commodity instruments. Symbols include prefixes specifying contract types.

• Download MT4 or MT5 from your client dashboard
• Install with administrator privileges
• Log in using your account credentials
• Add commodities to Market Watch for quick access
• Set chart templates for commodity analysis

We suggest 1-hour and 4-hour charts for swing trading commodities. Scalpers should enable 1-minute and 5-minute charts with tick data to track price movements precisely. Expert Advisors function fully with commodities, though margin requirements differ from forex pairs. Position sizes should consider contract specifications and currency conversion rates.

Trading Mechanics and Execution

Order Types and Execution

Exness supports market, limit, and stop orders for commodities. Market orders execute instantly at current prices, while limit orders enter positions at specified prices. Stop orders trigger trades once a price level is reached. Partial fills can occur where liquidity is low; however, our system attempts full fills first. You can set maximum slippage limits to avoid unfavorable price executions.

Margin Requirements

Margins vary by commodity volatility. Gold requires a 1% margin for standard accounts, oil needs 2%, and agricultural commodities typically call for between 3% and 5%. Our margin call triggers occur at 50% equity, with automatic closures at 20% to protect your capital. Swap rates apply for overnight positions according to contract specs and currency interest rates.

Risk Management Strategies

Stop loss placement is critical when trading commodities due to high volatility. Wider stops than those used in forex are often necessary. We recommend risking no more than 2-3% of your account per trade. Position sizing tools help calculate appropriate lot sizes based on margin and risk levels.

• Set stop loss aligned with risk tolerance
• Use margin requirements to size positions accurately
• Establish take profit targets using technical analysis
• Monitor economic events impacting commodities
• Adjust trade sizes during volatile periods

Hedging is effective; for example, gold positions can offset currency depreciation risks. Energy commodities often protect portfolios during inflationary phases. Understanding correlations aids risk diversification: gold and silver correlate around 80%, oil and natural gas about 60%, and agricultural commodities follow seasonal patterns.

Market Analysis Tools

Technical Analysis Features

Our platforms offer more than 30 technical indicators tailored for commodities. Moving averages help identify trends, while RSI and MACD reveal momentum shifts. Bollinger Bands track volatility expansions, and Fibonacci retracement levels are effective for metals. Support and resistance zones align with psychological price points. Volume indicators confirm breakout strength.

Fundamental Analysis Resources

Real-time news feeds focus on commodity-specific reports, including inventory data, crop statistics, and central bank policies. The economic calendar highlights crucial events affecting commodity prices. Weather forecasts are integrated to support agricultural trading. Geopolitical risk assessments assist energy traders, while mining output data informs precious metals pricing.

Account Management and Funding

Namibian traders may fund accounts via Standard Bank and FNB local transfers, or international wire transfers. Credit card deposits process instantly with 3D Secure authentication. E-wallets like Skrill, Neteller, and Perfect Money are also supported. Withdrawals vary: bank transfers take 3-5 business days, while e-wallets complete within 24 hours. We enforce same-method policies for withdrawals to enhance security.

Currency conversion applies to NAD deposits, with interbank rates used to minimize spreads. Account base currency impacts swap calculations and profit conversions; USD accounts generally provide better commodity trading conditions. Multiple account types are available: Standard accounts feature competitive spreads without commissions, Raw Spread accounts offer institutional pricing with commission fees, and Islamic accounts comply with Sharia law.

Advanced Trading Features

Automated Trading Systems

Expert Advisors (EAs) function on commodities but require specific adjustments for contract rollover dates. We supply rollover calendars indicating exact transition times. Historical price data includes adjustments for rollovers, ensuring accurate backtesting. VPS hosting with 99.9% uptime and redundant internet connections supports uninterrupted EA operation. Latency optimization further reduces execution delays for high-frequency strategies.

Our social trading platform facilitates copying experienced commodity traders. Performance metrics include risk-adjusted returns and maximum drawdown levels. Copier accounts may exclude certain instruments or limit trade sizes. Signal providers undergo verification, with real trading histories and risk profiles displayed. Commissions are shared between signal providers and followers. Risk management settings, including stop losses and position sizes, transfer automatically, with manual override options available.
