Market Discussions

I was going to say, 15,000 left in Jita.
But then they were gone.

These won't be 62000 ISK again, but they are at a local maximum now.

I'm expecting them to settle back around 13500:1 against PLEX. 18000:1 was an anomaly I pointed out a while ago (this was why I bought into them). Prices are against PLEX not ISK because PLEX is the more stable currency especially for items where production is tied to account subscribed hours (rather than player attentive hours like deadspace drops, or bot hours like minerals)

But there has been a huge shortterm spike in them - a CODE. event caused a gamewide shortage of T2 blasters alongside a sharp spike in prices for those guns. T2 blasters are something like 20% Robotics, 20% Particle Accelerator Units, 20% Caldari FW LP (datacores), 30% normal minerals and 10% morphite. This event has concluded now and CODE.'s supplies held up through it. (I personally still have around 10b in blaster stock remaining which I intend to sell in bulk to individual gankers and/or use mysefl).

So the shortterm prognosis is stable supply, depressed demand = GTFO this market.

Disclaimer: I personally own fewer than 15000 units of Robotics now, having sold or used most of my previously purchased ~125000 units.


Edit: My comments from October predicting the Robotics increase (albeit underestimating the last week, I said they wouldn't get near 125k):

Edit: Also a comment on my previous attempts to manipulate Robotics prices downward; which was a modest success and needs to be done again. https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&m=5615251#post5615251 . Note - I was a member of CODE. at the time which will make it a little clearer. What's funny is that everyone thought I was lying there when I was not.
