Trade skills can be divided into four groups:

[[Skills:Trade|Trade skills]] can be divided into four groups:

*Skills that increase maximum number of active orders orders: Trade, Retail, Wholesale, Tycoon.

*Skills that allow you to buy and sell things remotely: Marketing, Procurement, Daytrading, Visibility.

Line 44:

*Retail (L2, 100K ISK) – grants 8 additional orders per level.

*Wholesale (L4, 35M ISK) – grants 16 additional orders per level.

*Tycoon(L6, 100M ISK) – grants 32 additional orders per level.

*Tycoon (L6, 100M ISK) – grants 32 additional orders per level.

With all these skills trained to level 5 character can manage up to 305 orders.

===Remote Skills===

The info for these skills can be misleading. Sadly, these skills do not magically move goods around ~~e.g~~. Procurement will not allow you to buy goods in a distant system and have them appear in your current station's hangar. What these skills do is allow you to buy and sell goods that are not in your current station/system. If you are a station trader, for example, you hang out somewhere else from your goods; this increases safety, because trade hubs tend to attract PvP action. Similarly, you can deliver your salvage to a trade hub then go back to missioning where the missions are, while still managing the sale of your salvage.

*Daytrading (L1, 12.5M ISK) – allows to change orders remotely. Ranges are the same as for Marketing skill.

*Visibility (L3, 7.5M ISK)- increases maximum range of remote buy orders, so sellers can fill such orders from any station with this range of the remote buy order. Every buy order can have own effective range limited to this skill. Ranges are the same as for Marketing skill.

*Visibility (L3, 7.5M ISK) - increases maximum range of remote buy orders, so sellers can fill such orders from any station with this range of the remote buy order. Every buy order can have own effective range limited to this skill. Ranges are the same as for Marketing skill.

===Overhead skills===

===Overhead Reduction skills===

*Accounting (L3, 5M ISK) - reduces the transaction tax rate by 10% per level from 1.5% to 0.75% at level 5.

*Broker Relations (L2, 200K ISK) – reduces the broker fee collected on market orders by 5% per level from 1% to 0.75% at level 5. This fee can also be affected by standings between the trader and the corporation that owns the station.
