Heating Oil Commodity volatility depicts how high the prices fluctuate around the mean (or its average) price. In other words, it is a statistical measure of the distribution of Heating daily returns, and it is calculated using variance and standard deviation. We also use Heating's beta, its sensitivity to the market, as well as its odds of financial distress to provide a more practical estimation of Heating Oil volatility.
Downward market volatility can be a perfect environment for commodity traders who play the long game. For example, an investor can purchase Heating Oil that has halved in price over a short period. This will lower the average cost, improving your portfolio's performance when the markets normalize. Similarly, when the prices of heating oil's commodities rise, investors can sell out and invest the proceeds in other commodities with better opportunities.

Heating Oil Suggested Diversification Pairs
Pair trading is one of the very effective strategies used by professional day traders and hedge funds capitalizing on short-time and mid-term market inefficiencies. The approach is based on the fact that the ratio of prices of two correlating shares is long-term stable and oscillates around the average value. If the correlation ratio comes outside the common area, you can speculate with a high success rate that the ratio will return to the mean value and collect a profit.
The effect of pair diversification on risk is to reduce it, but we should note this doesn't apply to all risk types. When we trade pairs against Heating Oil as a counterpart, there is always some inherent risk that will never be diversified away no matter what. This volatility limits the effect of tactical diversification using pair trading. Heating Oil's systematic risk is the inherent uncertainty of the entire market, and therefore cannot be mitigated even by pair-trading it against the equity that is not highly correlated to it. On the other hand, Heating Oil's unsystematic risk describes the types of risk that we can protect against, at least to some degree, by selecting a matching pair that is not perfectly correlated to Heating Oil.
