Trading has different aspects in EVE as you can see in the content of this page. What you basically do is buying at low prices and selling it at high prices. Or the easiest trading interaction in EVE: buying ships, weapons and ammo for your own use and selling stuff you collected on your missions. Many points are already mentioned in [http://wiki.eveonline.com/wiki/Trading, wiki of eveonline]. So not everything will be mentioned in here if it exists on the indicated Page. | Trading has different aspects in EVE as you can see in the content of this page.

Well, station trading is basically the same as you do when you buy thins at one location at low and at another at high prices. The difference is - you do it in the same station. To be able to do so you certainly need a trading hub to place yourself. Obviously it's useless to be in a station where nothing - or only very few items are traded. Once you have chosen a station where you want to do station trading go to the market window and check the different items. Sort the market data for prices. In the upper window (seller) check that you have the lowest price at the top of the list and in the lower window (buyer) you want to see the highest price at the top. Now the difference between the highest buying price and the lowest selling price can be your profit. | Well, station trading is basically the same as you do when you buy thins at one location at low and at another at high prices.

You can place orders which are just above the current highest price and everyone who want to sell things (ex. Mission runners) will sell it to you. Once you have the items in your stock you can sell them again at a price which is just below the currently lowest price (in the sellers window) and everyone who wants to buy that item will buy it from you. For more detailed information listen to Dr | You can place orders which are just above the current highest price and everyone who want to sell things (ex. Mission runners) will sell it to you.
