Overview
What is Commodities on MrChart?
The Commodities page shows energy, metals and agriculture in one view, with each price quoted in its own unit. A commodity board lists contracts with the last price, change, day range, 52-week range and the position against the 50-day and 200-day averages, and every contract opens its chart.
Below the board you will find financial futures listed beside the commodities, long-run benchmark series such as crude oil, natural gas, copper and wheat, and options flow on the listed companies that track each commodity group. That makes it easier to link oil, gold or metals to the stocks and sectors they affect.

Questions
Frequently asked questions
What commodities can I follow on MrChart?
The page groups energy, metals, grains, softs and livestock, plus a broad commodity price index. Each series shows the unit it is quoted in, such as dollars per barrel.
Are commodity benchmark prices live?
It depends on the series. Some benchmarks are published daily and others monthly, and the page labels each one so a monthly reading is not mistaken for a live price.
Why do commodity prices matter for stocks?
Raw material prices change costs and revenue for many companies, from producers to transport businesses. Watching them gives context for sector moves, though it does not predict them.
