There is so many items which is creating lot of confusions to the new comers in the stock market . In that Commodities and futures are main two things . Commodites means real and physical goods like gold , iron, crude oil.. etc. It may be soybeans or iron or Gold all this called as commodities only . But one more Important thing is here. They way of commodities business is not like our routine reseller type of business. Commodity marketer wont buy the things physically and wait for the good rate for his product . But they will do with respect to the actual rate of that particular product .

There is one more trading is called Future trading . This is nothing but the trading which will happened based the predictions of that particular Product ( Commodity)

Normally In this commodities market there are mainly three type of Investors will be there. They are Commercial Investors, Large investors and small investors . Commercial investors are normally trade on particular commodity only .

The A large investors farm operation will produce corn that will be sold fresh, canned, frozen, as corn oil or used as feedlot food for cattle and other livestock. so the single commodity has suddenly become several new products, Normally  traded as separate stock forms for different parent companies. Normally The commodity-trading expert has Very  good idea about which crop will have a good year, and which ones might falter based on climate, production and other considerations.

Large Investors pool money to enable themselves the opportunity to buy larger blocks of a certain commodity, and to reduce their individual risks. Large investors groups use a centralized money manager who actually make the trades, and in most cases, make the financial decisions for the investors as well.
Normally the targeted third group is the small speculators. These peoples are individuals who do commodity trading on their own or through a broker.
I Suggest , As with any other type of trading, commodity trading should only be undertaken after one has a thorough understanding of what is happening in the market. So please Do a little research about commodities and futures can lead you to valid, sound decisions about commodity trading.
