Energies Trading | CFD | CFD Trading | Contracts for Difference

Our Energy contracts offer exposure to changes in oil and gas prices. All our contracts expire at specified forward dates and are cash settled.

We quote you our own bid/offer spread based on the underlying oil or gas price. Based on the underlying market, spreads may vary to those specified in the Contract Details.

Note: We offer mini versions of all Standard Forward Energy contracts at 50% of the main contract size and margin requirement (25% for Natural Gas) except Carbon Emissions.

Notes to table

All the instruments described on this site are Contracts For Difference (CFDs). Our Energies give you exposure to changes in the value of oil and gas prices but they are cash settled and cannot result in the delivery of any commodity or instrument.

1. Our Energy contracts give a client exposure to changes in the value of a futures contract but cannot result in the delivery of any commodity or instrument by or to the client.
2. We will quote an 'all-in' spread that includes both dealing spread and market spread. The size of our dealing spreads are shown in the information tables. All dealing spreads are subject to variation, especially in volatile market conditions. We will not charge any additional commission unless we notify you in writing.
3. The last dealing day shown in the tables may not always coincide with the last dealing day on the relevant exchange.
4. For most positions, a client can, at any time before the position has been automatically closed, ask for the position to be rolled over to a later date. Rolling over a position involves closing the old position and opening a new one. We normally attempt to contact a client shortly before a position is due to expire and offer him the opportunity to roll the position over. However, we cannot undertake to do this in every case and it remains the client's responsibility to give instructions, if he so wishes, to roll the position over before it expires.
5. If the 25th calendar day of the previous month is a non-trading day, the last dealing day for Light Crude Oil is the third business day prior to the last business day preceding the 25th calendar day of the previous month.
6. Times quoted are local to the relevant exchange.
7. Positions not already closed by the client expire automatically with spread on the following basis:
   • Light Crude Oil, Heating Oil, Natural Gas and No Lead Gasoline basis the closing price of the relevant futures contract on NYMEX on our last dealing day
   • Gas Oil and Carbon Emissions basis the settlement price of the relevant metal on LME on the last dealing day
   • Brent Crude Oil basis the IPE Brent Index price for the day following the IG last dealing day
