I don't know how brokerages work in Europe but I imagine you'd have access to ETFs traded on American exchanges such as USO and UCO? Your minimum buy in would be like 20 dollars, not thousands.

It is plain gambling, but you are also gambling every time you fill your gas tank hoping you paid a good price, with 70 dollars.
