I made a spreadsheet for marginal traders to use to find their profits easier. Just follow the instructions and figure your profits. I welcome any feedback and suggestions. Just make a copy of it for yourself to edit it.

I know anyone can draw up a simple spreadsheet but at least now there is one readily available for people to take advantage of.

Keep in mind that this is only for buying directly from market and selling to open buy orders. This is not meant for station trading as there are other taxes incurred when setting up buy and sell orders yourself.

Please bump if you like this!

v1.0
-Has an area to input your ships cargo m3 as well as the item's m3 to tell you how many trips you'll have to do as well as profit per trip.
-Has a wallet tracker that allows you to input wallet data to track your profits/losses for 100 days.
v1.001
-Made changes where all the inputs are now located in cells A-F, for easier input. Just fill that information out and let the spreadsheet do the rest of the work.
-Changed the colors around a bit to highlight costs, losses, taxes, and profits.

A new version will be out later today where all the input on the actual sheet will be on the left and all the calculated totals will be on the right, so no more having to search for where the input values are.

Great little tool. Especially as a mac user I have been hard pressed to find things like this. Much appreciated.

These may as well be farts in the wind but I have had a few beers since the start of this thread.

Also if anyone has any ideas for any other little tools I can add, such as the Wallet Tracker, just reply here and I'll see what I can do.

I have a few spreadsheets in the making right now that I will be posting to the forums as soon as they are done in one new forum thread, so if you enjoyed this one keep an eye out for the new thread. Hopefully if everything goes well they will all be complete by the end of the week.

A few small defects.

  1. Column E Row 1 on the "Example01" and "Actual" pages should be "Unit Volume"
  2. Column E Row 2 on the "Example01" page should be something like "How much room 1 unit takes"
  3. Column F Row 1 on the "Example01" and "Actual" pages should be "Ship's Cargo Capacity"
  4. Column F Row 2 on the "Example01" page should be something like "Your Ship's Cargo Capacity in m3"
  5. Column G Row 1 on the "Example01" and "Actual" pages should be "Total Volume"
