Commodity trading is the buying and selling of raw materials or primary goods, such as gold, oil, wheat, or coffee, on global exchanges. These markets are driven by supply and demand, geopolitical events, and economic shifts, creating opportunities to profit in both rising and falling price conditions.

Commodities are broadly divided into two main categories:

• SHard Commodities: Natural resources that are mined or extracted, such as precious metals (Gold, Silver, Platinum) and energy products (Crude Oil, Natural Gas). They are non-perishable, influenced by global economic trends, and often serve as a hedge against inflation.

• Soft Commodities: Agricultural products and livestock that are grown or raised, such as Wheat, Corn, Coffee, Cocoa, Cotton, and Cattle. They are perishable and heavily influenced by weather, climate cycles, and seasonal supply changes.
