Identify unmet needs: What's lacking? What new, essential thing do buyers have trouble with? Are there unmet needs or demands, not being currently met (like specific tools for mining or resource-related processes that other traders might have no easy access to yet)? Check player communities, feedback. Use your observation; make yourself visible (for example, announce that you are an expert on how to solve this resource deficit; offering yourself as a specialized seller and helping provide solutions)
-
Refine and Resell: Turn raw materials into refined products for better returns! Selling the "pre-processed materials/product will most likely offer higher prices).

A mining station owner finds lots of demand, in bulk quantities from various traders, at good pricing in terms of efficiency!
-
A lone player is unable to trade efficiently by selling solo; therefore, they join an organized alliance, resulting in bulk deals and much higher selling potential than by selling alone!
Important Note: Market conditions shift continuously; always remain flexible. Remember – adaptability equals success! Be the type who readily accepts change! Be prepared to respond promptly (be responsive, adaptable and quick!) Be a trendsetter/setter and be ready to pivot with the ever-changing environment.
