Crude Oil Futures Trading 101
– How To Start Investing In OIL AND
GAS?
There are plenty of ways to get in on the oil industry. For
example, #1. you can buy stocks of oil exploration and drilling
companies, refinery companies, distributors etc.
#2. But one of the most profitable – and riskiest –
investments you can make is in Oil Futures, option contract.
#3. Another way to invest in oil and
gas is ETF AND ETN = EXCHANGE
TRADED FUNDS - EXCHANGE
TRADED NOTE.
#4. And also this way you can invest
in oil and gas. Is royalities
--------
What Are Oil Futures?
Oil futures are derivative securities that give the holder the
right to purchase oil at a specified price (similar to how stock
options work). If you exercise your future by the settlement
date, you can purchase oil (crude oil futures trade in units of
1,000 barrels) at the price stated in the futures contract
-----------
Oil Futures Price
If the price of oil looks like it is going to continue to increase,
you can also hold the future while it appreciates in value and
sell it at a later date to an investor who does intend to
exercise it.
-------------
Advantages of Investing in Oil
Futures
Oil futures can make great investments and are probably one
of the most actively traded derivatives on the market. Some
of the benefits of investing in oil futures include:
1. Ability to make substantial profits. Oil futures can be
extremely lucrative investments.
2. The price of oil can change substantially in a short period
of time, so futures investors can see a sudden appreciation
in their investment.
3. Liquidity. Oil futures are one of the
most liquid investments because of
the high volume that is traded every
day. In fact, they are the most actively traded future on the
market and hence the most liquid.
4. Leverage. You can purchase oil futures on margin (in other
words, you can borrow money to purchase them).
5. The margin requirements are set by the exchanges and for
oil they are often as low as about 5% or 10% of the value of
the investment. That means you could buy $200,000 worth of
oil futures for only $10,000, or 2o,000. This can also be very
dangerous, but it is nice to at least have options.
6. Easy trading concept. Although it is a good
idea to work with a broker or trader who can show you the
ropes of futures investing, it is relatively easy to get started.
Anyone who takes a little time to research the process can
figure it out and develop a trading strategy.

==================
How to Buy Crude Oil Stocks
Crude oil, or petroleum, is the raw, naturally occurring
substance that is refined into gasoline and other oil
products. As the modern world depends on crude oil for much of its energy, crude oil
stocks are often in high demand by investors.
There are many ways to participate in crude oil stocks. However, as the price of oil fluctuates
considerably, stocks associated with this commodity tend to also be volatile. Nonetheless, it is
a straightforward process to buy crude oil stocks.
Step 1
Open a brokerage account. Any standard brokerage account can handle the
security products for buying crude oil stocks. You can use an online broker for the
convenience of direct portfolio access or engage with a full-service firm that makes
transactions for you.
Step 2
Fund the brokerage account with any desired level of capital for your crude oil investments.
There is no minimum amount of capital needed to buy crude oil stocks, but some brokers may
require account minimums.
Step 3
Buy the "USO" stock if you want to speculate on the price
of oil. This ticker, the United States Oil Fund, does not represent any sole company but
rather tracks the overall price of crude oil. This stock is a great way to gain exposure to the
crude oil market. Any changes to the price of oil are immediately reflected in your brokerage
account.
Step 4
Buy stocks of companies that engage in the exploration,
drilling or refining of crude oil. These stocks include some of the largest companies in the
world. Exxon Mobil (XOM) and ConocoPhillips (COP) are popular among crude oil investors. As
the price of oil rises, these companies profit from its sale at higher prices.
Step 5
Buy the stock "XLE" if you want broad exposure to the
entire crude oil industry without selecting individual
companies. This exchange trade fund tracks the average returns of all the energy
companies from the S&P; 500 Index. The success of those companies' stocks affects XLE. Thus
it is possible for this sector to perform well even if the overall stock market falters. However,
the reverse is also true. The energy sector is volatile as a whole. The XLE can be less volatile
than individual stocks, which makes it a popular vehicle for those who want to buy crude oil
stocks.
-----------------------
==========================
How do I invest in crude oil?
The easiest way for the non-professional investor to invest in crude oil is through the
purchase of an exchange-traded fund that tracks the price of the commodity. One share of the
U.S. Oil Fund (USO) ETF provides exposure equal to approximately one barrel of oil.
------------------
How do you trade options?
Trading in options involves acquiring the right to sell (put) or to buy (call) an underlying asset
over a set period of time. An investor has three ways of buying options, which are: waiting until
maturity, trading before the expiration date, or letting the option expire.
They may sell options using covered or uncovered calls - covered calls involve the investor
selling the right to buy a stock they own, while an uncovered call is selling the right to buy a
stock that they don't currently own, but will have to buy if the buyer's stock price .
--------------------
Common mistakes that new investors make when trading options include exclusively trading
out-of-the-money calls or using one trading strategy for all market conditions. An OTM call
refers to an option whose strike price is higher than the currently selling market value.
While they look like a quick way to make money, the actual potential value of the option can
decrease rapidly as it moves towards expiration. It is more efficient for a new option trader to
sell a covered call, as it has significant potential for profit accompanied by minimal risk.
---------------------
Trading "long spreads," in which a lower-cost option is sold and a higher-cost option is bought
simultaneously, is an effective strategy for a beginning option trader who is keen on minimizing
his risk exposure, but it also limits the maximum potential profits. A successful investor must
always have an exit plan when making a trade, as it limits the downside risk on his trades and
encourages disciplined trading
---------------------------
What is the difference between a put and a call
in trading?
A put gives investors the right to sell a security, usually a stock, at a certain price by a certain
date, while a call gives investors the right to buy a security at a certain price by a certain date.
Options trading gives investors the ability to make money whether the market goes up, down
or stays the same
--------------------
====================
A barrel is one of several units of volume applied in various contexts; there are dry barrels,
fluid barrels (such as the UK beer barrel and US beer barrel), oil barrels and so on. For
historical reasons the volumes of some barrel units are roughly double the volumes of others;
volumes in common usage range from about 100 litres (22 imp gal; 26 US gal) to 200 litres (44
imp gal; 53 US gal). In many connections the term "drum" is used almost interchangeably with
"barrel".
---------------
How to Buy Oil
Buying oil is moderately easy. As an investment, there are many ways that you can buy oil
commodities. You can also buy various securities that give an indirect exposure to oil. This
article will detail how to invest in oil, as well as how to buy actual oil by the barrel.
----------------------------
Determine whether you want to invest in oil, or to actually
buy and own real barrels of oil. Investing in oil is much more common. The
average person has no reason to buy large quantities of actual oil.
rude oil is the world's most actively traded commodity. It trades on the New York Mercantile
Exchange (NYMEX) as light sweet crude oil futures contracts, as well as other commodities
exchanges around the world.
Futures contracts are agreements to deliver a quantity of
a commodity at a fixed price on a fixed date in the future.
These futures trade in quantities of 1,000 barrels, or 42,000 gallons of oil and settle in an actual
physical delivery. So unless you actually want 42,000 gallons of oil and have some oil tankers
handy, this option probably isn't for you.
Oil options are another way to buy oil. Options are contracts which give the buyer or seller the
option to trade the oil on a future date.
Options often have cash settlement, meaning that on the exercise date of the option, the buyer
and seller just pay each other off based on the current price of oil rather than delivering the
real physical oil to each other. If you choose to buy futures or options directly in oil, you will
need to trade them on a commodities exchange.
-----------------------------------------------
The best way to invest in oil for the average buyer is to
buy an Oil Exchange Traded Fund (ETF). An Oil ETF is a fund that
trades in real time price changes on major stock exchanges.
It is designed to closely track the movements of the price of crude oil. What the fund does is
maintain various investments in the above mentioned oil futures and options markets, and
then sells shares of its fund to smaller investors.
You can buy ETFs online, and to buy an oil ETF all you need is a regular brokerage account. You
can even use an online discount broker. Some common oil ETF stock ticker symbols are OIL,
USO, UCO, and DBO.
--------------------------=============-=------------------------
How to Invest in Oil & Gas
Crude oil and natural gas are two of the primary sources of energy. After refining, they provide
fuel for cars and trucks and can also be used to produce electricity. Exchange-traded funds --
ETFs -- allow investors to invest directly in the prices of oil and natural gas or in the stocks of
companies that produce, process or transport oil and gas. A portfolio of selected energy ETFs
can provide broad investment exposure to oil and gas values
-------
Open an account with a discount online stock broker. If you
already have an account, fund the account with your oil and gas investment money. "Smart
Money" magazine provides and annual ranking of the brokers. A link to the 2010 Broker Survey
is provided in the Resources.

investing. Here are some of the major energy ETFs and their type of energy investing:
Direct crude oil or natural gas prices: United States Oil ETF, symbol USO and United States
Natural Gas ETF, symbol UNG.
Major oil and gas companies in the S&P 500: Energy
Select Sector SPDR, symbol XLE.
Energy exploration and production companies: iShares Dow Jones U.S. Oil & Gas Exploration &
Production, symbol IEO.
High dividend energy stocks including natural gas transport: J.P. Morgan Alerian MLP ETN,
symbol
Purchase shares of your selected energy ETFs using the stock purchase screen of your online
brokerage account. ETF shares are purchased the same way as individual stock shares. Enter

==========How to Buy Oil and
Gas Royalties — The 6 Step
Process
Oil and gas royalties are a
wonderful investment for
small investors
Partly because the 12% – 30% returns that can be made,
and partly because small one man investment shops can
get into the business if they have the know-how and the
financial backing.
You already have consulted royalty specific legal advice,
such as the oil and gas law firm...
You have established a legal entity to buy them with,
either a company, partnership, or under your own name..
NOTE: Anyone who owns oil and gas royalties means they
probably own the mineral rights. There are rare instances
where that is not true, but you will often see ‘oil royalties’
and ‘mineral rights’ as interchangeable phrases.
Buying minerals occurs in clear phases:
Phase 1 — Find potential royalty owner
sellers
Phase 2 — Solicit sellers with an offer to
purchase their royalty
Phase 3 — Receive incoming calls from
sellers with questions.
Phase 4 — Quickly perform due diligence
on sellers who think they wish to sell
Phase 5 — Send out mineral deeds and
paperwork to owners who think they want
to sell their royalties. Follow up on these
people immediately.
Phase 6 — After receiving deeds and
paying the royalty seller, file the deed with
the correct county courthouse.

Know what affects the prices of oil and when the best time to purchase is. Even the
professionals get this wrong, so be realistic with yourself before you commit to investing.
---------------
==================
How To Start Investing In OIL AND
GAS?
Using Oil Futures in Your Portfolio
If you decide to take the leap into oil futures, you will first
need to open an online futures account (approval isn’t
guaranteed). Once you’re all set up, you will need to be
ready to think on your feet. Since futures expire and lose
much of their value near their date of expiration, you are
going to have to move quickly.
-----------
Due Dilligence - Research And
Knowledge - Having The Correct
Information On Time.
To help you make quick and intelligent decisions, it is
imperative that you do your research. Analyze supply and
demand charts, and consider other factors including
weather patterns, political turmoil, and current events on a
daily basis. All of your research should revolve around one
thing: the future price of oil.
------
One other important note to keep in mind is that purchasing
an oil contract gives you ownership of 1,000 barrels of
crude oil. This means that for every one dollar change in the
price of oil, you will have a profit or loss of $1,000. This
aspect of futures even further adds to the risk and volatility
of investing in oil futures.
If you forecast the trend correctly, you will find yourself in a
lucrative position. But the opposite is true as well. Make
sure you know what you are doing before you start
investing in oil futures.

What is the Crude Oil ETF list?
The Crude Oil ETF List is a list of all the exchange traded
funds of oil companies that are traded in the United States
and tagged by the ETF Database, the website notes. The
list tracks the Top 14 largest crude oil .
--------------------
The largest crude oil ETF on the list in terms of assets is
the United States Oil Fund. The second largest is the
Standard and Poor's GSCI Crude Oil Tot Rex Idx ETN, worth
$1.1 billion. The Crude Oil ETFs List monitors the price
fluctuations of crude oil, giving investors the opportunity
to invest in this market even without a futures account,
notes the list's website

What is the Rule of 85, and how
does it affect retirement?
The Local Government Pension Scheme of many years
reports that the Rule of 85 determines how someone's
retirement benefits are decreased if the person decides
to retire before the age of 65. Under the Rule of 85, a
person's age at the time benefits are drawn plus the
number of years of membership in a pension plan should
equal 85 or more to avoid a reduction in benefits.

What is a call and put option?
A call option entitles the holder to purchase an asset at a
specified "strike" price prior to a certain date, explains
Investopedia. A put option gives the owner the option of
selling the stock at the stated price on or before its
expiration

A Guide To Investing In Oil Markets
The oil market can be very confusing to
both the professional and individual
investor, with large price fluctuations
sometimes occurring on a daily basis
Price-Driving Influences
Demand
The Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) and the
International Energy Agency estimate the current world demand for
oil at between....
Quality
One of the major problems the oil market faces is the lack of
high-quality "sweet" crude, the type of oil that many refineries
need to meet stringent environmental requirements, particularly in
the United States. Much of the high-quality oil imported into the
United States comes from Nigeria and surrounding African nations;
according to the U.S. Department of Energy.
----------------------
Speculation
Aside from supply and demand factors, another force driving oil
prices has been investors and speculators bidding on oil futures
contracts. Many major institutional investors now involved in the
oil markets,
Investment Options
Regardless of the underlying reasons for changes in oil prices,
investors who want to capitalize on energy price fluctuations have
a number of options. One simple way for the average person to
invest in oil is through stocks of oil drilling and service companies.
----------------------
Investors can gain more direct exposure
to the price of oil through an
exchange-traded fund (ETF) or exchange-traded
note (ETN), which typically invest in oil futures contracts rather
than energy stocks. Because oil prices are largely uncorrelated to
stock market returns or the direction of the U.S. dollar, these
products follow the price of oil more closely than energy stocks
and can serve as a hedge and a portfolio diversifier.
--------------------------------
Investors have a number of ETF and ETN options to choose from,
such as a single-commodity ETF (e.g., oil only) or a multi-commodity
ETF that will cover a variety of energy commodities (oil, natural
gas, gasoline and heating oil

==============
Difference Between Light Sweet Crude
& Brent Crude Oil
Crude oils vary in price because they vary in quality. But the
two crude oils which are either traded themselves or whose
prices are reflected in other types of crude oil are West Texas
Intermediate (light sweet crude) and Brent.
Differences
The “quality” of crude oil depends
primarily on its sulfur content and API
gravity. The American Petroleum Institute created the API
gravity measurement--the weight of oil compared to water. The
“lighter” the crude, the higher its market value because it can
be used for more processes.
Light Sweet Crude
West Texas Intermediate (WTI) is considered a light sweet
crude oil of very high quality and is excellent for refining a
larger portion of gasoline. Its API gravity is 39.6 degrees
(making it a “light” crude oil), and it contains only about 0.24
percent sulfur (making it a “sweet” crude oil). Early oil
prospectors coined the term “sweet” because the low sulfur
allowed the oil to pass their taste test.
Brent Crude
Brent is actually a blend of crude oils from 15 different oil fields
in the Brent and Ninian systems located in the North Sea. Its API
gravity is 38.3 degrees (making it a “light” crude oil, but not
quite as “light” as WTI), while it contains about 0.37 percent
sulfur (making it a “sweet” crude oil, but again slightly less
“sweet” than WTI). The Brent blend is ideal for making gasoline
and middle distillates, both of which are consumed in large
quantities in Northwest Europe, where Brent crude is typically
refined.
Crude Pricing
Generally, differences in the prices of these crude oils are
directly related to the quality differences--the lighter the crude,
the higher the price. But other factors can also influence the
price relationships between crudes. Crude oil prices behave
much as prices do with other commodities, with wide price
swings in times of shortage or oversupply, war or peace and
with fluctuations in supply and demand among

How To Buy Oil Options ?
Crude oil options are the most widely traded energy derivative in
the New York Mercantile Exchange (NYMEX), one of the largest
derivative product markets in the world.
The underlying of these options is not actually crude oil itself, but
crude oil futures contracts. Thus, despite their names, crude oil
options are, in fact, options on futures.
Both American and European types of options are available on
NYMEX. American options, which allow the holder to exercise the
option at any time over its maturity, are exercised into underlying
futures contracts.
Thus, a trader who is, for instance, long on the American call/put
crude oil options takes long/short position on the underlying crude
oil futures contract.
The European type of oil options are settled in cash. Note that in
contrary to American options, European options may only be
exercised at the expiration date. On expiration of a call (put) option,
the value will be the difference between the settlement price of the
underlying Crude Oil Futures (strike price) and the strike price
(settlement price of the underlying Crude Oil Futures

Opportunities...
Oil makes the world go round, and there’s no sign of that changing any
time soon.
Petroleum also has a multitude of uses in industry, as it can be used as a
lubricant and is a key component in the creation of plastics.
Natural gas, for its part, is a popular source of heating and cooking energy.
It can also be converted into diesel fuel and electricity, and is essential in
the creation of chemical fertilizers.
While crude oil prices and gasoline prices are relatively high compared to
historic norms, when adjusted for inflation.

Ways to Invest... How to Invest in Oil?
You can approach oil and gas investing in a number of different ways. For
example, you can consider the industry a collection of companies
providing products or services to consumers, as well as to other players in
the oil and gas industry itself.
You can also approach the industry as a commodity, and seek to profit
from changes in the prices of crude oil, gasoline, diesel, and other
products.
1. Mutual Funds or ETFs
Alternatively, you can buy shares in a number of oil and gas-focused
mutual funds or ETFs through a brokerage like You Invest by. These help
you gain substantial exposure to the commodity without taking direct risk
in commodity spot prices and without tying too much of your fortune to
the prospects of any one company.
2. Large Cap Stock or ADRs
These are two methods to gain exposure to the oil and gas markets, both
via publicly traded companies –

Futures Contracts
You can purchase derivatives such as oil and gasoline futures contracts;
these, however, can be risky, since futures contracts can and do
frequently expire without any worth.
Small or Micro-cap Stock and Limited Partnerships...
If you want to take a more direct equity position in a smaller company or
project, you may consider making a play further down the oil and gas
industry “food chain” into a small or micro-cap stock, or even a limited
partnership that focuses on oil and gas.

Oil and Gas Investment Advantages...
Diversification. Oil and gas investments have historically
provided a useful diversifier against the overall economy. When
gas prices rise, economies tend to slow. This could cause the
rest of your stocks and funds to stumble.
But when oil and gas prices rise, oil and gas stocks tend to rise
with them. An exposure to oil and gas stocks can help insulate
your portfolio against economic slowdowns caused by oil
shocks.
Profit Potential. Investments in the smaller companies and
limited partnerships can occasionally pay off big. A single well
can generate many times its costs if drillers strike oil, and the well
can pay dividends for many years.
Tax Advantages. There are some tax advantages to oil and gas
investing. For instance, the IRS allows companies to deduct for
depletion – an allowance similar to that for depreciation in rental
real estate, which is a way of accounting for the gradual
exhaustion of mineral supplies in a given plot of hand.
If you buy shares in a publicly traded stock, this benefit will be
largely invisible to you, since publicly traded stocks are C-
corporations and don’t pass their gains and losses to
shareholder tax returns. However, if you buy a membership in a
limited partnership, this could be a very important consideration.

Choosing Energy Stocks Wisely
Although there’s no sector that guarantees risk-free investing,
the energy sector is riddled with high-risk stocks, making
deciding which stocks to invest in a bit more difficult.
General Rule for Newcomers
If you’re new to investing, or even an intermediate investor new
to the energy sector, it’s wise to only invest in names you know.
Chevron, ExxonMobil, Shell, and other popular gas stations are
publicly traded.
Household names in any sector tend to make the most stable
investments. So, if you’re looking to get involved in energy-
related investments, start with company names you recognize
as you learn more about the unique nature of these types of
stocks.
It’s also a good idea to consider energy-focused exchange-
traded funds (ETFs). These ETFs are composed of energy
stocks chosen strategically by professionals, taking the
guesswork out of investing for newcomers.
You can find ETFs geared specifically to crude oil, renewable
energy sources, or a mix of the two. As a result, when investing
in energy ETFs, you have the ability to decide which area of the
energy sector you’d like exposure to.

The Complexities of the Oil Market
The oil market is one of the least straightforward commodities,
because a tremendous amount of global politics are involved.
Oil has a variety of prices, which depend on the location and
the type of oil. Brent is produced in the North Sea and serves
as a global benchmark. You can always look up the price of
Brent crude oil today.
OPEC provides about 40% of the global oil supply, and politics
among that group have a tremendous impact on oil prices.
They often work together to control the availability of their oil
to maximize their profit, which can impact oil prices in every
market.
