I've rewired my brain yet again recently. This time I'm focused towards social interaction and manipulation. Which is handy when you're dealing with market brokers, station authorities, fleet mates or corporation members.
As an attempt to get used to my newly acquired powers, I've tried a small market manipulation. Nothing fancy, just artificial price increase for a certain module in a certain region. That worked but not as smooth as I expected. When I already decided to just sell everything I got, more competitors arrived. The usual 0.01-isk war began and I thought I had to make even more investment just to keep my projected profit.
Then some guy comes, buys everything off market and relists it with a huge additional price. I jump the train and throw everything I acquired just below him. Again, more competitors arrive (right now it does seem a lot more profitable then when I did the same thing, which lures lots of traders) and it's 0.01-isk war again, but this time I'm going to follow it and sell my stock of those modules.
The projected income would be a bit over 100 millions. Which is not that much considering it took over 2 weeks already. Still better then keeping my isk stale.
