In order to prove that alphas can make significant ISK station trading even after the broker relations changes, I recently created a Twitch stream where I showed how to take an alpha account from absolute scratch to PLEXing the account by station trading only in less than a month and also to 5B net worth in less than two months. All with far less than an hour played per day on average.
This guide outlines step-by-step how I did this, and how anyone can replicate it. Many parts are not only valuable for alphas, but also for omegas trying to get into trading.
Come hang out in my stream to discuss the Eve markets!

Great guide and very professionally done. If you keep building on this i can see this channel becoming quite successful. And best of luck with the CSM, you'll get my vote.

Very kind. Thank you!

You are most welcome!

This guide is excellent. Thanks a ton!

Thank you!

[@snowboard424]

Truly amazing video. Clear and concise. It’s almost Impossible to find eve guides outside the 30-45 minute range filled with stuttering and putting opinions over facts.

[@OZeve]

Thank you so much for the kind words. That's what I was aiming for. I will dive down deeper in future guides.

[@snowboard424]

OZ_eve if you don’t mind a follow up question: i binged your videos available on twitch (the ones covering your net worth from 4.7-6.0 billion) and was wondering if any of your time under 1 billion was going to be uploaded or otherwise made available. I want to see the first few billion made. Thanks again

[@sptony2718]

In my home region I would sometimes buy out my competition and relist to my price. One time I went in with 54 million and bought up one of my competitor's orders, just to return with 90 mil within the next 12 hours. Rival: "Haha, got your ISK!" Me: "Haha, got more of someone else's ISK!"

[@MichaelPohoreski]

12:32 What were the POS 1 jump away? Buy Jita sell Perimeter (Tranquility Trading Tower) Amarr ??? Dodixie ???

[@journeymanic9605]

So let me see if I have point 2 of the golden rules right. I go to perimeter and set up my buy orders. I make sure that I have the range set to one jump. And my buy orders will most likely be fulfilled at Jita and I travel there to sell them?

[@OZeve]

Yes. Actually you don't have to travel there. Even Alphas can sell remotely.

Would love to see that first Twitch feed again.......

@oz_eve its really awesome information but please use some chill or relaxing music background.

[@OZeve]

Yeah all newer videos have it. 😉 Feedback implemented.

[@jeremymorris112]

Go to perimeter to "a player owned station to place buy orders?" Like POS anchored next to a moon? Sorry if that is a daft question, I have been away from the game for a while...doubtful alphas would be able to access someone's POS so I am sure I misunderstood that bit instruction.

[@OZeve]

No worries. It‘s a publicly accessible station called Tranquility Trading Tower. Anyone can see it under the list of structures when you right click in space.

[@15TDewald]

curious with the template. Is there an algorithm I'm supposed to input in order to get the prices for selected items to populate for specific trade hubs? Not sure where to begin with the spreadsheet.

[@OZeve]

The prices from the other hubs should be loaded automatically, but you need to copy and paste your transactions from JEveAssets into the sheet. After that, copy the item names to the master sheet. I explain it on my Twitch stream regularly, but will also make a youtube guide in the near future.

[@15TDewald]

@@OZeve ill give that a try tomorrow, work becons. Great video btw. It's been a long time since I've found a up to date and well layer out explanation of basic trading.

[@jonathanjonsson3143]

Hello, Beginner at trading here - Can alphas modify sell orders remotely? I seem to have trouble finding an alpha skill which allows from that, one system away.. Awesome video, thanks!

[@OZeve]

Unfortunately not, no.

[@jonathanjonsson3143]

@@OZeve I see.. I guess i could jump 1 system to update them but would that basically destroy my margin with relist fees? Since i guess that would be more costly than what it would be if I did it remotely...? Thank you so much for the help!

[@OZeve]

@@jonathanjonsson3143 You can just have your alpha trader sit in Perimeter and post local buy orders. You can create sell orders in Jita remotely as an alpha. I strongly advise against modifying sell orders anyway because it destroys your margin. Just post realistic sell prices.

[@jonathanjonsson3143]

@@OZeve Thank you for taking the time to answer! The way you describe is how I do it now (but in Ashab) except I did not really know how to handle sell orders which were sort of pushed down in the list. I will definitely check out your other content and sub! Big thank you again.

[@luc7964]

Hello, when I buy items, I have them scattered in all the different station where the buy orders have occured. Is it better to sell them in place or go get them all and sell them in a major trade place?

[@OZeve]

I gather them occasionally or pay for others to ship larger stocks via contracts

[@luc7964]

@@OZeve ok thank you very much. And thank you also for the content, it really helps 🙂

[@Timithos]

Also try to avoid common loot drop items when trading. These items will scatter across too many stations for inefficient pick ups.

[@lukenorth2014]

Hello one question. Did you leave the npc corporation and join a player run corporation during your experiment?

[@OZeve]

Yes we have an open stream corp for that. Name is: Pecunia Infinita. 0% tax. Anyone can join.

@@OZeve Thanks I was just wondering, and this looks like something I want to do.

[@Systematic10]

Hey. Is it possible for you to make your Alpha videos in to a KZbin series (if you still have access)?

[@OZeve]

I wish I had kept them all, but I actually didn't. I will try to make more guide videos to convey the content though. Thanks for the feedback.

[@caephius6064]

Thank you for the guide, one thing I missed is if one still needs standing when trading out of a player owned station. Also the music is really distracting, it makes it more difficult to listen to what you're saying.

[@OZeve]

No standing required, no

[@jau1976]

You should really skip that background "music" It is not good for anything, and just really annoying to hear while you talk :)

[@brian_serafin]

agree. it was hard to focus with the bg music. good video but skip it in future vids!

[@OZeve]

Yep, not using it anymore

[@LastZeel]

I'd like the same guide for ethereum

[@Ndasuunye]

Loo how is the investment strategies entirely backwards in difficulty level compared to real life

[@lisov4575]

This really doesn't help a new player trade... How would someone find these high profit items? Should I sit there with my computer looking at items for an hour? 5 hours? Weeks? Months? There are thousands of items on the market. Do you suggest I literally go through them one by one to see which ones are good? This can take a lifetime!

[@camarad777]

This guide, is still works up to date?

[@OZeve]

Some of the taxes and fees are outdated, but the approach works. You can ignore Perimeter and just use Jita in many cases. Just compare broker fees.

[@MichaelTrouw]

Music is really too loud, damn. quite ashame :(

[@antonyluker2590]

Really useful vid ty. My only nitpick is the music that just detracts from what you are saying and is only an annoyance. There's just no reason to have it imo. I love music but don't want to hear it when I am trying to concentrate on what you are saying, just lose it.

[@solitude9875]

[@uwoahhhhhhh2652]

Is this up to date?

Not all parts. Mainly tax structure and broker fees. Perimeter is really not necessary anymore if your skills are at V.

I like the talk but the loud, what I call 'stupid-techno', music in the background drives me mad. I can barely hear some of your words.
