Kraken Adds Six Commodities to Kraken Prop as Commissions Fall

Kraken added six commodity markets to Kraken Prop on Oct. 29, while cutting commissions on non-crypto markets for plans other than Lite. Breakout, which Kraken acquired, introduced four commodities the same day and cut fees for eligible accounts. Breakout’s new markets are gold, Brent crude oil, copper and natural gas. Gold (GOLD) allows up to 5x leverage and a $500,000 maximum position. Brent crude oil (BRENTOIL) has the same leverage ceiling and a $200,000 cap. Copper (COPPER) permits up to 10x leverage, with a $50,000 cap, while Natural gas (NATGAS) allows up to 3x leverage and a $50,000 maximum.
