iainshepherd19 | Friday, February 1, 2013 - 04:11 pm I recently got the idea that in order to ensure a steady profit for my corps and thus increasing their value I could buy all their stock and then sell it from the enterprise directly to the world market. However the automation does not seem to be working, the contracts are listed but the goods are simply not transferring, any ideas/solutions? Many thanks, Iain |
iainshepherd19 | Friday, February 1, 2013 - 04:14 pm Please ignore this, seems to be kicking in now perhaps just took a few months to get in effect. |
Crafty | Friday, February 1, 2013 - 04:51 pm Yeah, it takes one month for the contract to be recognised. The corp then will keep a month worth in stock to sell, so nothing gets traded that month, and then the next month it can complete its contract to you, and so the cycle will continue, with the corp always having a months worth of production on hand, until you cancel it. |
iainshepherd19 | Friday, February 1, 2013 - 05:44 pm Excellent thanks for the info, as a tip would you recommend this profit strategy? |
Borg Queen | Friday, February 1, 2013 - 05:47 pm sheperd, one thing you should be aware of: no matter what quality the products you sell from your enterprise stock is, you can only sell it at 2xMarket Price. Means that if you sell 250Q from Enterprise Stock you can only sell it at the equal price of an 200Q Product |
iainshepherd19 | Friday, February 1, 2013 - 05:55 pm I did notice this as well when I traded directly form corporations, however the profit of the corporations seemed to soar and I could easily see I was making more cash than by using the automatic follow quality trade function. Is it certain that the auto systems function correctly? |
