And if you don't like the .01 game, get out of Jita. You don't "win" that game.



great read just finished it , rlly rlly liked it simple put, explained quite nice ... Really wana try it .
Also there was just 2 great tips from the start make the alt and play for free 51 days ...
Also with the 60 day voucher its another alt without any cost and maybe with some profit .

A great thread indeed , the OP is a corp mate but i might aswell try it also :) see how it goes . Seems nice for someone who likes this sort of things .

the emma hiis talking about , is it still updated ? does it still cost 100m ? where i can find latest version ?
tryed to google and found some threads on the old forum but those seem a couple of years old ....

Unfortunately I believe that EMMA is no longer updated.

I use EveHQ for some functionality that overlaps with what EMMA could do (mostly to view good summaries of assets and do weekly/monthly profit/loss reports) so you might want to try that (it is also free).

You know what i like about this section :D MD
if there is s scammer or smthing like that you can troll him into the ground i mean i saw some rlly outstanding stuff :D I mean Crime and punishment doesnt even get close to what you can do to someone who tryes to scam .

But at the same time if someone asks for help or advice you may be one of the most helpfull :D

As the other poster mentioned, I believe EMMA is dead.

Although currently more of an Industrialist, I have spent a fair amount of time as a trader. RL job has me traveling, and hotel internet connections are not so great for missioning, or PvP. Ugh

Regarding your question about an application for managing trade, I just stumbled upon one I like very much by first appearances. (Just getting back into trading a bit, as it is silly to have all those open trades available and doing nothing.)

Check out EVE Mentat

I've only just watched the YouTube videos and installed it. So far, I like what I see.

While I am a HUGE fan of EVE HQ, and use it extensively for my industial endeavors, it lacks some trade reporting options.

Feel free to contact me in game if you like. I'd be more than happy to give some advice or tips.

From the looks of your thread I'd say go to tash-murkon.

It's a popular place for pilots so the traffic is high. Most are on missions trade here is a bit on the weak side.

It is a minor trade hub. It is the closest minor trade hub to a major trade hub. ((Amarr))
This will make sure you get use of that orca.

It's not a good place for everyone but for a guy with an orca who wants to haul and wants to keep it short with minimal risk/reward aspects it's a nice location. Nice steady income while you learn the bulk of the trading game.

If you end up not liking it atleast you can trade in amarr which should be a bit easier on a guy with minimal time for the 0.1 game when compared to jita.


To your other question: Yes you can log on for a few mins a day and make large sums of isk. You will need many billions before you start to see that happen. With 10bil you can make a good 150mil a day if you deal with your orders 3 times a day for 10 mins each time roughly (( This of coruse varries based on many other factors and is only a rough idea for you )). This can also be done while missioning if you are good at multitasking.

So I finally did it! I started trading! First I invested in some small stuff I hauled out to null and I am selling sickly overpriced. I also threw 150m into different itemd on the market. I can't wait till tomorrow when I'll get to see how stuff ends up!

And feel free to troll me for throwing ~200m into the market on my first try.

It is possible, but it does not happen everyday. I can go for a month or two with a negative cash flow and then the next month or two have positive cash flow. All depends on how you approach things.

For instance, last summer I bought a lot of something for 100/unit and recently sold all of it for 900/unit, took a few months on that particular item, but it was worth the wait.
