Commodities are very basic products for us all- we use corn, sugar, cacao, coffee, oil even gold in daily basic. Commodities are very active yet considered as the safest assets of the market. There are many factors which influence commodity prices like weather, demand and supply, political events, government restrictions.

Commodities include many subcategories, metals, energies, agriculture, livestock and meat. Under each subcategory stand many assets offering traders great trading opportunities. First commodities were traded between themselves and nowadays they are traded against money. Recently, commodity trading is very popular because they tend to stay stable and they have negative correlation with other assets like currencies or stocks. So if the US dollar is going up, the oil price tends to go down.
