📈 Profit Guide
Profit is the extra Trochus you earn from a trade. It’s the reward for making smart trading decisions. Here’s how to maximize your profits:
-
Buy Low, Sell High:
- Look for undervalued items and buy them at a low price. For example, if you buy a melee for 10,000 Trochus and sell it for 15,000 Trochus, your profit is 5,000 Trochus.
- This strategy works best when you know the market trends and can predict when an item’s price will rise.
-
Negotiate for Lower Prices:
- Always try to negotiate when buying items. Even a small discount can increase your profit margin. For example, if you negotiate a melee down from 12,000 Trochus to 10,000 Trochus, you save 2,000 Trochus upfront.
- This extra savings can be reinvested into more trades, increasing your overall profits.
-
Set Higher Selling Prices:
- When selling an item, set the price slightly higher than your target. This gives you room to negotiate without losing your desired profit. For example, if you want to sell a melee for 15,000 Trochus, list it for 17,000 Trochus. If the buyer negotiates down to 16,000 Trochus, you still earn more than your target.
- This strategy ensures you don’t undersell your items.
-
Invest in High-Demand Items:
- Items like ultras (1m Trochus+) are always in demand for basing/war. Investing in these items can lead to consistent profits. For example, if you buy an ultra for 1.2M Trochus and sell it for 1.5M Trochus, your profit is 300,000 Trochus.
- These items are less volatile and tend to hold their value, making them a safer investment.
