Why trade commodities?

CFD markets, especially Forex, can be quite volatile with charts full of twists, turns and zigzags. On the other hand, commodity prices tend to keep trends for longer periods. With careful analysis and practice, traders can start profiting with commodities regularly. Forex traders will find commodities as an effective means to diversify their portfolio. Also, you don’t purchase commodities physically, you simply speculate on their prices. As a result, you are shielded from unforeseen complications in the market such as logistics of commodities.
