I'm trying to find a trading spreadsheet for Jita-4 that will allow me to see the profit margins on items so I can determine what items to trade. I'm still very new to trading and I am looking for new items to invest in to trade.

If anyone knows how I can obtain one, or is looking to sell one, I would be very interested.

As I am still looking for items to trade; the more items the spreadsheet has the better.

Thanks - Crom

My advice is make your own. Couldn't be simpler; around 10 minutes with a basic Excel spreadsheet inputting your basic item and region data (assuming you've already done your research, that is). Plus side of the DIY approach is that not only you'll save yourself money doing it yourself, but you'll also begin to see patterns and potential moves by doing the legwork and inputting your variables.

You're unlikely to find people giving up their hard-earned information.

I'd really like to be able to make my own but I don't know how to use Excel beyond very very basic functions, let alone importing api info on market prices. I'd love to be able to learn how, but I don't know where I can get this knowledge.

Sorry but if you want everything "done" this is not for you . Contrary of what may look like there is some effort involved in trading . Not investing time in research wont get you far . You may find such a spreadsheet , but this is only the first problem , if you already have troubles now you should reconsider .

make you own. you will spend more time adjusting someone else's spreadsheet to your needs anyway.

I ran into some computer problems recently, but Im working on fixing mine and I should be able to remake it pretty soon. I should have it up and running in the next week with some additional features as well.

I'll see about getting a squad running about market stuff. I think antitrust is probably a solid choice, but may be more industry focused.

I can pull out the following data for ALL items at once, so you really won't miss out on a good deal (from Jita or anywhere else)

- Item volume (ISK and units)
- Profit margin
- How much concurrence there is on the item
- Price movements (How far the item is currently off the 5-30 day average).
- ... anything else you desire!

I can give you a one-time datasheet with all of that in it, or continuous access to that data... of course that depends on how much you were expecting to pay. I'd be happy to give you a limited list with a good amount of items for a discount price, and hopefully work with you again in the future.

If you trust someone else's spreadsheet, I've got news for you...

The more I read the forums over the years, the more I swear. To god. That the typos are intentional mistakes. Part o f the encryption.

Yeah, cause you set up orders blind and don't double check the items right?
