Physical Commodity Trading Strategies

Any of the established traders out there care to share non-specific commodity trading strategies. I understand that it goes against personal interest to share specific strategies but I thought it would be fun to discuss them on a general level. I assume that more sophisticated strategies include going long physical and short paper and vis-versa. Can anyone shed light on some general strategies or where I can find information to develop my own?
