TYPES OF ENERGY
-
Oil
Oil trading, which involves the purchase and sale of various oil types and related assets, is undertaken with the objective of accruing returns. Given that oil is a limited resource, its price is subject to substantial swings in response to shifts in supply and demand. This inherent volatility renders oil an attractive commodity for traders.
-
Gasoline
Gasoline, a derivative of crude oil, is a vital fuel source used primarily in internal combustion engines of automobiles. As a non-renewable resource, gasoline's availability is finite, and changes in supply and demand heavily impact its market value. Vantage gives traders exposure to both Gasoline CFDs via the widely popular MT4 and MT5 platform.
-
Low sulphur GasOil
Low Sulphur GasOil, or ultra-low-sulphur diesel, is a critical diesel fuel with significantly reduced sulphur content. Widely used in Europe and North America since 2006, it meets environmental regulations for cleaner fuels, making it essential in the global energy market.
-
Cash oil
Cash Oil involves the direct purchase or sale of physical barrels of oil without the use of futures contracts or derivatives. Transactions are settled immediately, reflecting current market prices influenced by geopolitical events, supply and demand, and global economic conditions. Vantage offers cash oil contracts for trading on MT4 and MT5 platforms using our USOUSD and UKOUSD instruments.
-
Natural Gas
Natural gas is primarily utilised as a fossil fuel for cooking and electricity generation. Its widespread usage, especially in developing nations like China and Indonesia, has contributed to its sustained popularity over the past decade. At Vantage, you can trade natural gas through contracts for difference (CFDs).
