it cant be spot oil i dont think.. that would involve the storage of barrels of oil. Maybe its the future?

I don't know about the storage of barrels, but cmc only do forward contracts not spot/cash price.

Yup it's futures for pretty much everything oil based I believe.

If you want to trade spot oil - then maybe a trip to your local esso?

Are you sure it is spot?

Most 'front months' are forward contracts.
