How can I buy sugar commodities using an online brokerage?
You have to open a commodities account. That’s what I did. If you have never invested in commodities before, it would be better if you had a broker for awhile. That way, he can help you place trades. I did that for a few years, before going to an online discount platform. It is especially important that you learn how to use stops, limit orders, options, and ways to hedge. There are several websites that I like a lot. One is future source www.futuresource.com. Another is www.futures.tradingcharts.com. There is a long list of brokers on the tradingcharts.com website. Start there–but learn about it before you commit funds. If you want a good book to read, look up the author ( and trader and tv commentator) Kevin Kerr. He wrote a book called the Maniac Trader. It has a lot of information that will help you. Good luck.
