2. History of Commodity Trading in India In India, Commodity trading is relatively new vis-à-vis stock trading. However, investing in commodities provides a lucrative avenue to earn good returns over periods of time or even hedge yourself against shocks, especially in assets such as gold. • Commodity trading in India is done on the MCX (Multi Commodity Exchange of India). With trading allowed only in Commodity Futures, SAMCO clients can trade Commodities like Gold & Crude Oil. • Different Commodities have different cycles & many commodities are independent of Equity market sentiments. Unlike equity markets, commodity markets are not prone to manipulation! •

3. Who are the Participants in Commodity Trading? There are two major types of participants who participate in Commodity Trading in India: • Hedgers: These are users of the commodity in question & are trying to lock in a profit at a specified price. Let us explain with an example: Say a factory purchases 1000 Tons of Aluminium for its own use. The managers are afraid of a sharp fall as it would affect the value of their inventory; hence they short sell aluminium futures on MCX. In case aluminium prices fall, the short sale would turn protect the value, and in case aluminium prices rise, the short position would be unprofitable, but the value of the aluminium would increase. – Speculators: These are people who take positions opposite the Hedgers, unlike hedgers, their aim is to make money from market movements. They buy or sell commodity futures without owning the underlying (asset) & aim to magnify gains using leverage or margins. For example, you feel that Gold will rise in the near future, you can buy physical gold & store it but you would have to pay 100% to the shopkeeper & incur a storage charge. Whereas on MCX, you could take a Gold future contract by paying only 5% to 7% of the contract value of Gold. This way you amplify your gains! –

4. What Commodities Can I trade in India? You can trade a wide variety of Commodities in India, including Agricultural Commodities, Metals & Energy products.
