CommodityTradeX is a secure, managed marketplace for physical commodity trading. It connects verified buyers, suppliers, trading companies, and brokers with tools for transaction management, KYC verification, and trust scoring.

What commodities can I trade on CommodityTradeX?

You can trade metals (copper, iron ore, aluminum, gold, silver), energy (crude oil, refined petroleum products, natural gas, LNG, coal), agriculture (wheat, corn, soybeans, palm oil), and soft commodities (coffee, sugar, cotton).

Is CommodityTradeX free to use?

Yes, CommodityTradeX offers a free Starter plan that lets you post unlimited listings, browse the marketplace, and place bids. Paid Pro and Premium plans unlock full transaction management, direct messaging, and team features.

How does the trust score system work?

Every trader earns a 0-100 trust score based on KYC verification, completed transactions, counterparty reviews, profile completeness, and document turnaround time. Higher scores indicate more reliable counterparties.

What is the Transaction Management System (TMS)?

The TMS is a 13-step milestone workflow that guides commodity deals from initial agreement to final delivery. Each milestone requires specific documents and dual-approval from both parties, ensuring transparency and reducing transaction risk.

Crude Oil (Brent)

Brent crude is the leading global price benchmark for Atlantic basin crude oils. Extracted from the North Sea, it serves as the reference price for approximately two-thirds of the world's internationally traded crude oil supplies. Brent is a light, sweet crude prized for its relatively low sulfur content and ease of refining.

Crude Oil (WTI)

West Texas Intermediate is the primary benchmark for North American crude oil pricing. WTI is a light sweet crude with an API gravity of around 39.6 and sulfur content below 0.24%, making it ideal for gasoline refining. It is delivered and priced at Cushing, Oklahoma.

United StatesCanadaMexico

Diesel/Gasoil

Diesel and gasoil are middle-distillate refined products used extensively in transportation, heating, and industrial power generation. European gasoil (EN 590) is a key benchmark traded on ICE, while ultra-low sulfur diesel (ULSD) dominates markets with strict emissions regulations.

RussiaSaudi ArabiaUnited States

Fuel Oil

Fuel oil is a heavy residual product of crude oil refining, used primarily in marine bunkering, power generation, and industrial heating. The IMO 2020 regulation shifted demand toward very-low-sulfur fuel oil (VLSFO), while high-sulfur fuel oil (HSFO) remains traded for scrubber-equipped vessels.

RussiaSaudi ArabiaIraq

Jet Fuel (Aviation)

Jet fuel, primarily Jet A-1, is a kerosene-type aviation turbine fuel meeting stringent international specifications for flash point, freeze point, and thermal stability. Global demand exceeds 300 million metric tons annually, driven by commercial and military aviation.

LPG

Liquefied Petroleum Gas is a versatile hydrocarbon fuel comprising propane and butane, used in residential cooking, heating, petrochemical feedstock, and automotive fuel. LPG is transported in pressurized vessels and traded on both spot and term-contract bases from major Middle Eastern and US producers.

Saudi ArabiaUnited StatesQatar

LNG

Liquefied Natural Gas is natural gas cooled to -162 degrees Celsius for efficient long-distance transport by specialized tankers. Global LNG trade has surged as nations diversify energy supplies. Major pricing hubs include the JKM (Japan-Korea Marker) and Henry Hub-linked contracts.

QatarAustraliaUnited States

Natural Gas

Natural gas is a fossil fuel used for power generation, residential heating, and as petrochemical feedstock. Traded via pipelines in regional markets (Henry Hub in the US, TTF in Europe, NBP in the UK) and increasingly as LNG for global markets. It produces roughly half the CO2 emissions of coal per unit of energy.

United StatesRussiaQatar

Petroleum Coke

Petroleum coke (petcoke) is a carbon-rich solid derived from oil refinery coker units. It is used as fuel in cement kilns and power plants (fuel-grade) or as a carbon source in aluminum smelting and steel manufacturing (calcined grade). Global production exceeds 150 million tons annually.

United StatesIndiaChina

Bitumen

Bitumen is a viscous, dark hydrocarbon binder produced from crude oil distillation, primarily used in road construction and waterproofing. Demand is driven by infrastructure development in emerging economies. Penetration-grade bitumen is the most commonly traded form, with specifications varying by regional climate requirements.

IranSingaporeSouth Korea

Naphtha

Naphtha is a light hydrocarbon fraction used as a primary feedstock for petrochemical steam crackers to produce ethylene and propylene, and as a gasoline blending component. Asian naphtha demand is driven by the region's large-scale petrochemical complexes, with pricing benchmarked to the MOPJ (Mean of Platts Japan).

Saudi ArabiaIndiaSouth Korea

Methanol

Methanol is a versatile chemical building block and clean-burning fuel, produced primarily from natural gas. It is used in formaldehyde production, fuel blending, MTBE/TAME manufacturing, and increasingly as a marine fuel alternative. Global production capacity exceeds 160 million tons per year.
