In order to keep markets trade properly, by that I mean to work best for miners, manufacturers, inventors, traders, each group have to do his job on keeping the market flowing correctly.
It can be done but all groups have to get used to the process
1. Manufacturers place their material buy orders, and
2. Miners fill the buy orders placed by Manufacturers,
3. Manufacturers fill the Traders buy orders and dont trade in sell orders
4. Traders have to be realistic with their buy orders and arrange a margin to correct the market
anyone have other sugestions?

Nah, I don't think any serious is really going to bother with thread. Mostly because such words sound great in theory but fall to pieces in practice. The truth is that this thread is a Utopian thread: Full of naive wishing but light on reality.
Such threads are only useful to people who can't succeed at the market or would rather attempt wind ups (the well intentioned can still be trolls you know). The kind of people who actually control markets probably won't post on this thread (with their mains at least) as it is ... a waste of time.

I think you could make it work, but it'd probably be very time-consuming for you to run every market-using pilot in the game.

The problem Clergo, is your basic assumption that all of these individuals have the same value of "properly".

Well, first, it's not a properly trading market. How do you know what a manufacturer, miner, etc is? Especially from the market point of view? These are all categories of convenience. The only participant in a market is a trader. There is no other beast. Mining, manufacture, pvp, etc occur outside the scope of the market and isn't relevant to the discussion of the market's operation. That's all you need to know to see why the above doesn't work. Here's the corrected process:
1. Traders buy or sell market goods as desired.

I guess we could all start a union and set up bylaws
But seriously, I just don't see how this "perfect" set-up could possibly work within EvE. There are too many factors that influence buy/sell orders (price volatility being the prime one) for this to be viable 100% of the time.

I can see it now. Union cards that allow you to place market orders at stations, but only if you have nothing but trade skills. =)
People will perform 'jobs' which are either the most convenient or appear to yield the best return for effort/isk/brainpower investment. I can't see why anyone would voluntarily restrict themselves as you outlined. Any game mechanics restrictions can be easily circumvented with alts.
Executive summary: Epic fail.

There doesn't need to be centralized planning of anything for it to just work.
