It is a very good market for young traders who might not have the raw ISK to move a lot of volume or the character skills to tolerate razor thin margins, but who do have the time to sniff out profits from the surrounding area and don't mind doing a little hauling and research. i must agree. Even thou i had a big capital, about 1,5bil, but i act as a new player so that i wont lose it :D Thou when trading in Rens, u absolutely MUST buy stuff within atleast 1 jump, cuz a lot of stuff is being sold in Farn.
sry was taht 1.5 or 15 billion in capital. |

Amarr / Rens / Dodixie are all about equal in sell order total ISK value. Nobody has published daily ISK transferred numbers, although I've been asking various market price sites to calculate it.
Amarr is a lot quieter then it was last year. Much of the Amarr trade has moved to Jita because it's not that far away.
Rens/Dodixie haven't changed much over the past year.

That should be an exponential line, not a linear one. Linear makes Deb a sad marketeer. |

You could find an active trader and simply sell your goods to him directly under market price. This saves you on transaction taxes and gets him items he can turn around quickly. He will want it under market price, but the loss in pure profit is made up for by the quickness of the sale. With industry, sale speed is as important as profits, especially when you're dealing with limited ISK, you need to be able to reinvest that money as quickly as possible to keep up cash flow. From what you said before, cash flow is your biggest problem, so this would be the best approach. Bulk Trade list also works, though a large percentage of its users are Jita-based, and not in the other hubs quite so much.
Also, I'd advise against always going to Jita to sell. It goes faster, but the time spent shipping will cancel that out, as will the reduced profits. Selling in Dod/Rens and sometimes Amarr can yield much better profits per unit.
Thx for the tips, i could solve my cash-flow problem by simply liquidating any dead assets i could find :) I also ofc ship things from Jita->Amarr, if the price is right. I still wish some materials would be available at more reasonable prices and volumes in dod/rens/hek. I often see low volume materials priced at 500% over jita and my buy orders only work on like 1 out of 10 materials, in those areas. So i'm still dependent on this once a week big shopping trip to jita.

Dodi has been decent for me so far... started out with 3m capital mwd and drones move well as well as rifters for some reason... I set up a buy order within 5 jumps on all the skill 3 frigates for 250k move them to rens and resell for near 400k.. managed over a few days to get a mammoth, all t2 cargo extenders and a cargo rig for it while still maintaining 1m account balance with 3 mill in buy orders and 3 mill in sell orders... and I have no clue what I am doing lol.
I like it because with my 5 range I am picking up all the merchandise people are too lazy to bring to dodi without the constant .01 isk that I was getting right in the station... I dont have much volume so not like picking the stuff up is detracting from keeping my orders current.
I might go to rens or amarr but right now dodi works... eventually i will figure out what I am doing. |

You've got a Mammoth and do a bunch of shipping, I might have work for you. How much are you making each day, approximately? |

good day again... about out of stock again though so had to post lots of buy orders tonight so wallet balance after work tonight 1mill, buy orders 12.5 mill, current inventory 1.9mill making the foray into T2 drones tonight again with a 5 jump range about 100k under dodixie prices sold 10 rifts today, 5 tristans and a lot of mwds about 200k profit per frigate and about 200% profit on the mwd.
I just cant wait to get more capital to go bigger see what I can expand too... might set up an alt in jita see if I can start running an import business for more profits.
This char is Minny, rens stuff moves faster but you have a lot more .01 bidding wars whereas dodixie you list something and 3 hours later it might get undercut. |

What about trading in null sec? For example where NPC station is and are a lot of mission runners/ pvpers there.
Would the profit be better than trading in high sec tradehub?
It is just a thought. |

I'm not really a trader, i'm mainly "forced" into this stupid 0.01isk game as a producer/seller. I really think they should review real world market trading, compared to this stupid 0.01isk grind "minigame".
I've done level 2 stock trading. It's quite similar to station trading and +.01'ing. What doesn't happen is real life trading all that often is the market manipulation through whaling you see in EVE.
I guess once you have a signature, you cannot have a blank one. |

I have a question for you, traders :
after how many item buy (with buy orders) do you re sell the items ?
do that depend on how many items your buy order is ? |

Well, if i have 45 orders for example, so i biu like 30 items, at 15 sell.
In order to avoid a big loss, i buy 10-15 items. Once i have atleast one, i sell it. Always trying to keep my orders at max. |

I usually sell the high value things (ships, implants) as soon as I can instead of waiting. But for normal cheap items I usually wait for the order to complete so I don't have 100s of sell orders to manage. |
