RT — Tue, 22 Jun 2010 16:59:27 +0000

Question about commodity trading, specifically light sweet crude?

RT — Fri, 18 Jun 2010 20:25:22 +0000

I’m thinking about making a play on oil. I’d like to buy some sort of contract betting that the price of oil will be higher by next fall, say Nov or Dec 2007. I’m not sure what would be the best and easiest way for me to make this play. I would like to make an investment like a call option where I only risk the premium. Are there call options on oil? I’ve found futures contracts on oil but it seems to me that you have an unlimited downside risk with a futures contract? I like the fact that downside is limited with a call option. Any advice or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
So if I were to buy Dec 07 56 for . I would basically need the spot price to be 62 in the market come Dec 07 to break even, am I calculating that correctly?

Thanks for the help, really hepfully and definitely appreciated. I may call your broker to find out about opening an account.
