Yes there are tools for that (eve-marketdata has several of them)
yes that is botted but they get removed often.. so there is usually a place for humans left
inter region trading especially seeding of nullsec hubs of large player alliances is quite profitable they pay you 150% Jita price on several items, you just get them moved with a jump freighter service and set up sell orders or even better contracts for fitted ships that are in demand
an other way is moving stuff between highsec hubs as the player freight companies are super cheap, and the margins between hubs on several items can net a decent profit....
but i am bad at it and usually do not have enough liquid isk to risk getting into it...
|
yeah im just testing right now...set up a little production on items that have weird prices.
ill look into logistics later, maybe i make another account as this one is fairly combat focused to be honest
|
for some time i bought bpcs for faction ships (orthrus gila, vindicator etc) and built them in regions where those ships were in demand and i could buy the minerals cheaply ... there the only risk is transport of the bpcs and it as very low skill requirements

I've found a enjoyable way to make isk. The nature of null sec alliances is that someone will always try to make isk off abusing the alliance market(s). So I find someone whose selling meta 4 scrams at 7 million isk, buy at 2.5 or so in hi sec, import via thera or other wh chains in a interceptor or BR, and sell them at 4. The guy selling at 7 will buy me out at 4, so I make 1.5 mil per and stay very liquid. Then I just do it again till he stops buying me out and move on to the next super over priced small item ( meta 4 shield extenders for example). Rinse repeat making a million isk + per item with fast turn over. It also works very well in low sec or npc null.

I mean its basic region trading with a minor twist, not particularly innovative, but I dig the reference.

what trade tools do people use?
Im also looking for something that ranks my traded items by profit made.

evernus can do that i think

Can I buy Tungsten Carbide off of you?

There are really low profit margins currently for Tungsten Carbide so none of my towers are making it, or else sure! I ship everything to jita and sell there.

Damn man, how many Billions are constantly tied up in tower, fuel and reaction material cost for that?

ok i tried the whole regional trading thing and it worked really well in my testruns, but how do people keep track of when the hell they traded in from X to Y, any tools to use or is this the spreadsheet part?
i wouldnt even know how to make spreadsheets with up to date prices.
as a bonus with my regional trade i can really screw over those +01 sation flippers if i want to because i know they bought in for more then i need to sell for.
|
That's the spreadsheet part, I believe. I think you just... manually pull the prices and update the spreadsheet.
|
You can pull market data via API from a couple of third party sources (eve-central and evemarketdata, I believe). You can also apparently use CREST, but the documentation is terrible.

K i doubled my money in around 3 sessions, i mostly kept to ammunition for now and today added some weapons.
Missiles have crazy margins, but even a whole monthly volume is barely enough for a beginner like me, even in amarr and rens.
I made most money in the big hubs, the small ones just take so freaking long, guess ill retry them when i have more available market orders.
Big hubs have annoying 0.1 jerks, but i can avoid them some when i massively undercut all prices, it reduces my margins, but it also frees up my time.
By moving from ammo to other things i should be able to scale this pretty well and with more knowledge i maybe can look into moving stuff from and into special areas like pvp or mission hubs.
I tried it once but my stuff just sits there for now because low trade volume.

what the fuck happened to vindicators today?

What would you guys suggest for a station/region trading application? Evenrus and Mentat have been recommended to me already, but I have no idea what I'm doing.

i gave my trade alt 100m after going from 0 to 10m by itself.
I didnt play much the last week as i had other stuff to do.
trading between hubs with massive undercutting worked well with all my items, trading between hubs and lower volume regions worked somewhat but it took much longer i think if i knew the right items for the regions it would be the most isk/effort.
then i got greedy and tried trading between jita and dodicxie without massive undercutting and it just bound all my time and isk as i had to wage war with others.
So i guess to go at it seriously i would have to either identify regions where certain items are needed and not heavily supplied or id have to serously research the wares i try to flip between regions regarding their price vs what they are worth so i can confidently set my sellorder without the need to stay at the top before my margin goes to 0.
Or the lazy way and purely look at margins and flip qickly, but then i have to deal with the 0.01 shit.
My 100m is now almost 300m, last few days i didnt do much as eve wasnt really working, just trying to get rid of some oders that didnt work out.
