Oil is one of the most commonly traded commodities in the world, and is available for trade in most of the top Forex trading platforms, as well as in many leading binary options platforms.
Oil is often known as petroleum, though in reality, petroleum is the result of the processing of crude oil, a natural liquid that is found underground. Crude oil prices fluctuate based on a variety of factors including natural disasters, political factors and fluctuations in the currency markets.
Likewise, oil prices also affect the Forex market, and therefore, it’s hardly surprising that many Forex traders also keep an eye on crude oil prices, and many even trade crude oil as a way to diversify their trading. To help you expand your trading horizons, the DailyForex trading room is happy to provide you with regular crude oil price technical analysis – we hope that it helps you trade profitably!
