From my research and experience in reviewing brokers, I always begin by examining the available instruments and verifying whether a platform is suitable for my own trading priorities. Looking at Patria Finance, I see that it offers exposure to a range of market instruments, including stocks, funds, ETFs, commodities, derivatives, and bonds. The commodities category often includes assets like gold and crude oil, but the broker does not provide a very detailed breakdown. Importantly, I could not find any explicit mention of leveraged trading in spot gold (such as XAU/USD) or direct crude oil contracts, which are standard offerings in more globally recognized forex or multi-asset brokers. Additionally, Patria Finance does not offer forex trading accounts, and it is quite clear from their disclosures that specific forex pairs, including XAU/USD, are not available. This is a significant point for me, as XAU/USD (gold quoted in US dollars) is typically a forex instrument and requires a broker to be explicitly set up for that market. If your goal is to trade gold or oil in the classic sense—such as XAU/USD or oil CFDs—you’re likely to be disappointed. Given the lack of valid regulation and the very limited transparency about their account types and precise instrument list, I personally would be very cautious. In my view, the broker may offer some indirect access to commodities via ETFs or derivatives, but not the specialized instruments that active traders usually seek, like XAU/USD or spot crude oil. For my own trading, this absence would be a deal-breaker. I recommend anyone considering Patria Finance clarify directly with them before funding an account, especially if gold or oil trading in the traditional CFD or forex forms is a priority.
