COPPER (HG / MHG)
Copper provides direct exposure to industrial output, manufacturing data, and global infrastructure development. Its strong correlation with macroeconomic activity makes it a core market for trading macro trends and commodity supply-demand cycles
PLATINUM & PALLADIUM (PL / PA)
Platinum Group Metals (PGMs) are heavily influenced by auto-catalyst manufacturing, global emissions policies, and concentrated physical mining supply. These focused markets allow experienced traders to react to structural supply-chain changes and industrial demand shifts

Metal Futures FAQs
1. What are Metal Futures?
Metals futures are exchange-listed contracts to trade the future price of precious and industrial metals such as gold, silver and copper. They're traded on regulated exchanges including COMEX, part of CME Group, with contract size, tick value and expiry set in advance. Some contracts are physically deliverable, others settle in cash
2. What's the difference between precious metals and industrial metals futures?
Precious metals, such as gold and silver, are often traded as a store of value and tend to respond to interest rates, inflation and currency moves. Industrial metals, such as copper, are tied more directly to manufacturing and construction demand, so they respond more to global economic growth and infrastructure activity
3. What moves Metals Futures prices?
Precious metals futures respond mainly to real interest rates, the strength of the US dollar, and demand for safe-haven assets during periods of uncertainty. Industrial metals respond more to global manufacturing data, construction activity and supply from major producing regions. Central bank buying also affects gold in particular
4. What are the margin requirements to trade Metals Futures?
Margin on metals futures is set by the exchange and varies by contract, moving with volatility, particularly around major economic data and periods of market stress. Brokers can require additional margin above the exchange minimum. KGI Crusoe has no account minimum; capital required depends on the contract and quantity traded. Current figures are listed in the contract specifications
5. What are the risks of trading Metals Futures?
Metals futures are leveraged, so a small price move can produce a large move against your margin, and losses can exceed the amount deposited. Some contracts are physically deliverable, so positions held into the delivery period carry different obligations than cash-settled contracts. Prices can also move sharply around unexpected geopolitical or economic events
