Commodities data comparison

Hi all

I'm quite new to it but I've just started to research commodities.
I've been adding data to excel of several commodities (average price per month) and playing around with it, comparing commodities against each other and producing charts.
I was wondering if theres a source where I can download multiple commodity data (preferably into excel) going back for several years? FTSE and DJI would be a bonus??
One source I've used indexmundi.com but its only possible to download one commodity at a time and the latest is often 1-3 months old.

Is there a web base resource on the internet that allows you to select the commodities and create graphs?

Thanks

  • For graphs the best free source is ProRealTime.com IMO. Contains most commodity futures and spot prices and a very sophisticated charting facility, and its free in end of day format. Barchart.com is also pretty good. I don't think either allow you to download raw price data however, and I don't know of any free sources for that.

    Your best bet would be the price data provided by the exchange where the particular commodity is traded.
