The commodity market is a global marketplace for trading various types of commodities, including precious metals and energies. Trading allows investors to speculate on the price of highly volatile instruments like gold and oil without purchasing the underlying asset, regardless of whether the commodity price is rising or falling.

The spread in financial trading is the difference between the bid price (what buyers are willing to pay) and the ask price (what sellers are asking) for a financial instrument, typically measured in pips or points. It represents the transaction cost. Spreads may widen when the markets experience lower liquidity. This may persist until liquidity levels are restored.
Swap is a type of commission applied to trading positions held overnight. Usually on Wednesdays, a triple swap rate applies for positions to account for the market close over the weekend where no swaps are charged.
Margin requirements are tied to the rate of leverage you use. Changing your leverage will cause margin requirements on your position to change. Just as spreads change depending on conditions, the leverage available to you can also vary.
