I've been try to change my trade strategies of my corporations so that they at least generate some profit, but it would just revert back to below the market price every game month. Its driving me nuts! I've tried turning off the auto sales in the automation settings but it keeps turning back on! Help!

It is unclear what you are doing.
are you a new player?
first two weeks?
after that you can turn off the support functions (settings).

If you try to sell above quality, that is indeed true. The market rejects very high quality as no one wants it and you cannot force them.

Really? Some of my corporations have a quality value of 140. But sales way below that. I've tried to fix it so that it sales 145 or exactly 140 but always reverts back to selling at 120.

Yup. I'm new and its my first two weeks. I've played the game before but that was a long-long time ago.

welcome back.

First two weeks it is fixed.
most players tweak before they know what they do and we get many many questions that are hard to answer.

you will be able to turn off the support functions in the settings and do what you want two weeks after registration.

I'm happy with this awnser, since I wondered why that trade strategy reverted back also. Didn't know it existed, but I'm in my first 2 weeks too.

I also ordered an effectivity upgrade for my corporations. Yesterday everyone of them was 101 effectiveness, today it went back to 100 except 2. Is that also some newby protection thing?

No, upgrades decay. I'm sure of the rate they decay at, but I think it's at a rate of 1 per somewhere around 1 game year. If you want the corporations to upgrade, you'll need to have them automatically upgrade. Manually upgrading is so time/activity-consuming as to be out of the question.
