Hi, i am looking to start investing in brent crude oil but have no idea how I can start doing so. Can someone advise me?

I wonder if investing in commodity is the same as trading in US market via vickers whereby I need to fill up an application form and mail it back to DBS before i can activate the US market trading system.
