Just looking for some quick advice.
I'm still new to EVE, but trading has won my heart. So far I've done all my trading on my main character but of course she does plenty of other things too.
I'm wondering if, in the future when I'm potentially looking for investors and being audited and whatnot, this will pose a problem. Obviously I have no real idea how the auditing process works but for example will buying up a ton of stuff for missioning or even as gifts for corplits and therefore making no profit reflect badly on me if I were ever to be audited?
I've managed to keep track of things just fine so far from my end. It will no doubt get more difficult as time goes on but I'm not too bothered about that side of things, more just whether this will affect my ability to secure investment.
Since trading isn't particularly skill-heavy I'm not sure if I should just start a trading alt now and keep the records clean that way. Is this even a concern? Am I being a mentalist?
Thanks in advance for any helpfulness.

General protocol is to have an alt trader on another account. That doesn't mean it cannot be your main, but that you want someone who can always sit in Jita and manage your orders and get the best price while you send your other characters out roaming space. -------------------------------------------

I have a Jita alt and other specific alts to do with trading because they allow you to do specific things, but honestly more of my money is made on my main. You can manage orders in key markets while doing other things which you simply cannot do with a Jita alt.

As an aside, if your business isn't entirely station based - ie. involves any hauling - trading through an alt avoids having to suspend operations if your corp gets war decced.

I say use alts. Just realize if you ever want to be audited (which very few players ever bother with), your alts may have to be audited too. So don't do anything with them you wouldn't want investors knowing about, like scamming.
