In this type of trading, commodities are traded on exchanges instead of stocks, in order to generate profits from the fluctuations in prices of those commodities such as gold,silver,wool,crude oil,agricultural products etc.

While trading in commodity few things are to be kept in mind like:
    • Incase of agricultural goods, their demand and supply.
    • The variations in currencies influence the prices of commodities.
    • The effect of inflation on the prices of commodities.
    • Donot invest in just one commodity only.Make a diversified portfolio.
    • Stay updated with the market trends.
    • When buying physical commodities,secure them in a safe place and also take insurance cover if possible.

Is is not possible to just trade commodities using purely technical analysis like people do with Forex trading? Won't the same strategies that work with Forex also work with commodities?

You can start trading with commodities once you have the basic knowledge about stock markets. Here, I have given some useful tips that would assist you in trading in commodities:-
1.Before you begin to trade, grab the required knowledge about the market.
2.Choose the right kind of commodity and broker depending upon your constraints like risk, budget, etc.
3.Always start investing with a low dose and gradually increase it. don’t start with a big budget.
4.Try to diversify your portfolio. Never stick to trade in only one kind of commodity.
5.Always stay up-to-date with the market trends and the current affairs.
6.Be ready to adapt to any fluctuations that occur in the market as the market is never going to be stable.

Commodities can be hard work. Very specialised it and fundamentals are a key driver. I would be very careful trying to trade more than 3 different commodities at a time

You are right; fundamental analysis is the key! But my strength is the technical analysis; this is why now I am working on only the FX pairs!

There is nobody who is able to reduce loss completely from this volatile trading place, but taking some major steps it can be reduced sometimes. If we can manage our risk when trading practically then it is possible to reduce loss form before. So, we have to emphasis on risk management policy besides acquiring good trading knowledge.

Be thorough with the basics before starting to trade. This will help you when you decide the commodities that you want to deal in. Also, don’t do the mistake of trading in a single commodity.

You really need to make something possible out of that case anyway. You need to stop focusing on gold and silver anyway for whatever possible reasons out there, I do not really make it happen on so many - I can't explain. Try with platinum.

If you want to do commodity trading, you need to have proper knowledge about the market. Most of the traders lose their money because of low knowledge about the market. So, I suggest you gather all knowledge before you start you trading.

The first thing you need to know is that it is entirely different from any other kind of trading, like say stocks. You must make use of both technical as well as fundamental analyses. And always diversify your funds into different commodities.
