As an example let's say you are running space fuel, buying from Herron's Nebula and selling to the Yaki. When it comes right down to it, resource trading is useful only when you are gaming the system. Which resources are traded in which stock markets depend on which resources see supply or demand in the represented sectors. Resources are like corporations their share prices are representative of how much supply and demand exist for a particular real-world good.

The little percentage indicators of the selling/buying desirability are all that matter.

For both of these, completely ignore the supply/demand sections of the graphs you're shown. I recommend starting to trade in company shares when you have somewhere around 10M credits.Įdit: Everything below naturals and resources. I recommend building a collection of shares across many companies, with shares purchased when each company hits rock bottom, with the amount of shares you own dependant on how much money you start with. This is also risk free, since companies never go bankrupt. Buying the shares of these fast-moving companies, whenever the share prices hit rock bottom, always provides quick profit (within the hour), sometimes with huge margins. That being said, some company share prices move very slowly. Some companies' shares also fluctuate very quickly, at times, giving you ample opportunities to repeatedly buy low and sell higher. Companies often have a very large ratio of maximum vs minimum share price. Their prices fluctuate randomly (as far as I can tell), but occasionally seem to be biassed by overall rising or falling trends. Companies have no beyond-the-stock-market representation. Again, though, I do not recommend buying corporate shares.Ĭompanies, however, are a different ballpark. If you DO buy corporate shares, buying them at their minimum price is the time to do so. This may not be true if you foresee a corporation gaining immense worth in the near future. I would contest that trading corporation shares cannot make you money than investing the same capital in factories or traders. Trading with corporations, therefore, cannot make you money very quickly the share prices move too slowly, and brokerage fees are relatively large, even compared to the highest payouts you can expect. How much the corporations own changes very slowly, and the ratio of maximum vs minimum share price is very small. The list of corporations you can trade, and the price of these corporations, is the same regardless of which market you're in. My five-minute company/corporation market tutorial:Ĭorporate share prices fluctuate according to how much the net worth of that corporation changes. Edit: I realize, now, that OP was really just looking for where the Corporate/Company Trading menu entry was.
