IG Markets CFDs — Commodities

All the instruments described on this site are Contracts For Difference (CFDs). Our contracts give you exposure to changes in the value of the underlying instrument prices but they are cash settled and cannot result in the delivery of any underlying instrument.

When you trade in a currency other than your base currency, margin requirements and any profit or loss will be booked to your account in that currency. As a default, we will automatically convert any profit or loss you realise on closing a position to your base currency, including a charge of no more than 0.5% of the current spot rate. For daily conversions, our system will convert the currency automatically. However, you may experience currency fluctuations on your account prior to the conversion.

Spreads are subject to variation, especially in volatile market conditions. Our dealing spreads may change to reflect the available liquidity during different times of day. Our normal spread is shown in the table.

For limited-risk trades a limited-risk premium is charged if your guaranteed stop is triggered.

Spot metals position remain open until you choose to close it. Separate daily funding adjustments are made for Spot Metals.

Our quotations reflect our own view of the prospects for each market. This could include taking a reference price from the last closing price of the market, analysing specific market or geographic news that may affect the equity index market we are pricing and movements in related or relevant underlying markets. Furthermore, orders placed by other clients may affect our quotations. There may also be nothing against which to measure our quotations at these times.
