About Oil & Gas Trading

Crude Oil is the world's most actively traded commodity. The two main benchmarks are WTI (West Texas Intermediate) and Brent Crude.

WTI is the benchmark for U.S. oil prices, traded on NYMEX. It's a light, sweet crude ideal for gasoline production.

Brent is the international benchmark, sourced from the North Sea. It prices approximately two-thirds of the world's oil supply.

Natural Gas prices are highly seasonal, driven by heating demand in winter and cooling demand in summer.

DEMAND
