Other than its nature of being a kind of energy, its industrial features are widely applied on national economic and in a number of different sectors. It is a critical foundation for the promotion of national economies and industrial modernisation. Any line of business today cannot survive without petroleum just like how human body cannot survive without blood, hence crude oil also being called the “industrial blood”.

The control over oil after WWII promoted and consolidated the leading position of the United States as a major power, acting as the critical booster of the United States becoming the dominant power. With similar rapid industrial development, now the entire world faces the same pressure from economic development and energy dependency. As crude oil is an uncommon commodity its price may be greatly affected (volatile) by geopolitical, economic positioning and military situations.

Due to global economic development and increasing demand for energy, crude oil has long been considered the king of commodity trading, recognized as the world’s largest trading volume of goods.
- Crude Oil History. A look at the history of oil pricing, such as WTI crude shows the commodity has been subject to regular and substantial price movements. There may be significant opportunity for investors who understand the fundamental factors that affecting the market.
