Figures are indicative. Live values depend on your tier, the instrument and prevailing market depth.

Cash, Forward, and the Roll

Metals mostly trade as spot with a daily financing charge. Energy trades as dated contracts that expire, and the price of next month is rarely the same as this one.

That difference is the roll. When a contract nears expiry we publish the replacement instrument and the adjustment applied, so you can decide whether to carry the exposure forward or close it.

Spot price
Spot: the price for immediate settlement, financed daily if held.
Contract size
Contract size: how much metal, oil or gas one lot actually represents.

Margined products can lose more than the amount you put in. Read the Risk Disclosure before you trade.

Common Questions

Short answers on how commodities with AVEXA Markets.

Which contracts expire?

Energy contracts are dated and expire. Spot metals do not, but they carry a daily financing charge instead.

What is a roll adjustment?

When a dated contract is replaced by the next month, the price difference is adjusted on your position so your economic exposure is unchanged.

Will I ever take delivery?

No. These are cash-settled contracts for difference; no barrel, bar or cubic metre changes hands.

Why did my tick value change?

Contract sizes differ by instrument. A one-cent move in crude is not worth the same as a one-dollar move in gold; both are stated in the specification.
