Commodities costs
- Spreads for commodities
- Margin for commodities
The spread is our charge for executing your trade. It’s the difference between the buy and sell price, which we wrap around the underlying market price.
| Market | Spread for futures | Spread for undated markets |
| OIL - US CRUDE | 6 | 2.8 |
| OIL - BRENT CRUDE | 6 | 2.8 |
| SPOT GOLD | 0.6 | 0.3 |
| SPOT SILVER (5000OZ) | 3 | 2 |
| CHICAGO WHEAT | 1 | 0.6 |
| LONDON SUGAR | 0.8 | 0.6 |
The charge will vary depending on whether you trade futures or our undated contracts. Futures have a wider spread, but no overnight funding charges – so are more cost-effective for longer-term trades. Learn more about our spreads
CFDs are leveraged, which means you can gain full exposure for the fraction of the cost. The deposit you pay to open a position is called margin. Although it’s not an additional cost to you, it can make a big difference to the affordability of your trade.
Remember, leverage can magnify your losses, as well as magnify any profits.
| Market | CFDs |
| OIL - US CRUDE | 1.5% |
| OIL - BRENT CRUDE | 1.5% |
| SPOT GOLD | 0.5% |
| SPOT SILVER (5000OZ) | 2% |
| CHICAGO WHEAT | 1.5% |
| LONDON SUGAR | 3% |
