Trading at over 10m ISK today, bought loads going back last year. Pretty smug about now as I sell my stock :)

I love Mynnna's inputs into the previous threads. Even with the heads up he gets from CSM and other dev bias he still manages to remain terrible at market speculation unless the answer is handed to him on a plate.

These tags had no where to go but up protected by their NPC buy out of 500k it was a minimal risk investment.

Nice job holding on to your butt. May I ask what it means "to KFC?"

Not to defend Mynnna, but most people are bad at market speculation. It's a lot simpler to jump on a bandwagon and cheer than it is to drive the wagon. Until it crashes and burns, cause the driver hopped off to find a new wagon.

Seeing that a market will go up or down is not terribly difficult, when and how much are more or less impossible, one can make reasonable guesses, but they are guesses. Eve makes it much easier because CCP makes distinct and recognizable changes very suddenly, in relative terms, and tells us what they are going to do almost every time, with lots of advance notice.

Pretty much all market speculators in Eve, have had their successful market speculation handed to them on a plate.

Negatory, as confirmed by lack of tag.

The OP also seems to fail to understand that guessing and getting it right once does not make them a master speculator, and a speculator missing a margin here and there does not bake them terrible. I'd suggest the op go wallet to wallet with mynnna and see how he comes out.

Mynnna misses some opportunities but is still a self-made multi trillionaire.


I also would consider Mynnna very capable of making those posts to dissuade market rivals while investing in the tags in question.

Best ISK was, and will be for a little while yet, in the Gila and a few other ships. Double your ISK, if you were in early.
