Ok I know the term. What I need to know is what items to trade. I've always been confused. Averaging 1 trade a minute seems really high. Most I've made is finding a r10 Celestial Sword for 15k and selling it perfect for 100k+2e. Do you trade high end/rare gold skins or just mass trade black/white dyes and lockpicks?

Thanks ahead of time.

You can do it either way. I think finding good deals and selling them at or slightly above market value is probably best, but it's up to you. If you want to buy black dyes at 7.5k and sell them at 7.7, you're profiting in the long run, but that'd be a very long run. If I wanted to creep up that slowly I'd just let someone HFFF me, and I'd get a title in the process.

High-end minis are pretty commonly powertraded.

If you can buy a Gwen for 100K+25 and sell it for 100K+35, you just profited 10 ectos. You'll need to become an expert on what is worth what, and you'll need some startup capital.

You can also gamble a bit, and invest heavily in Zaishen Keys, for example. Maybe next month the tonic will be much better? Buy 200 @ 4.7k, and sell them all at 5.5k a month later. There is risk, obviously.

In presearing I gathered the hunters ale (450) and then sold them for 100 gold each and then power traded the black dye to 100K. Took me 2 weeks
