How to Chart Commodity Trading

Posted by at 7:31 AM Read our previous post

1. Use the CME Group Website to look up the chart for the commodity you are interested in. See Resources for a link.
2. Determine the type of commodity you are interested in. Select the commodity from the Products menu on the left pane on the home page. Let's select corn as an example. The symbol for corn is "C."
3. Select Corn from the product menu. On the quotes page in the second column you will see an option to select a chart for each month. The first option will allow you to graph the price of the commodity over a certain time period. The second graph will allow you to graph the volume of the commodity over a certain time period.
4. Select the price graph for the most recent option month. The chart is fully interactive. You can customize the time period as well as the style.
5. Toggle between different commodities within the chart by selecting a new commodity from the first drop down menu.
