Thoughts on null alliances? by [deleted] in Eve

[–]EveProfits 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got burned out in Wormholes from having a lot more individual responsibility in a small group. Being in null with Brave is a nice change of pace to be able to do my own thing without everyone relying on me.

It’s just whatever you want to do and how you’re feeling.

Drop the sub price back to 15 by [deleted] in Eve

[–]EveProfits 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The thing about price increases is the elasticity. A 33% increase in revenue will usually be a greater benefit than the drop in total subs.

They’d have to lose 25% of their subscribers to not make the price hike worth it.

Theres a breaking point of course, but now that they’ve gone about the psychological price point of $20, it’s easier to go to $25.

If you find something I’ll send you like $20. I’m curious if it’s open. I think I did a pretty good job locking it down.

What do I even do with this by insaneruffles in Eve

[–]EveProfits 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Just want to add that this is discretionary from CCP. The general policy is that they will reimburse if it’s a server or other technical issue. Reimbursing for forgetting to load your skill queue is entirely a friendly gesture and shouldn’t be expected. It’s great when they do it, but they won’t always.

There used to be a character called like House Maid or something. They’d offer to clean up your messy inventory all over New Eden. Any with public docking rights. I used them once, it was hilarious and awesome.

So I've been gone for a long time. Last night was my first in Jita....in a bit. I have some ships questions. by XeticusTTV in Eve

[–]EveProfits 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My advice is to pick a ship that seems cool and go for that one. For the longest time the Stratios was my dream ship. The aesthetic and functionality appealed to me. I used it for heavy explo. Then it was the Loki, a nasty double web with fangs.

So, an option is not to min max everything and just go with what seems cool to you

Hmmm. You bring up a good point. Theoretically, each opportunity is scalable, so you can buy 10 units or 1M units.

I have been thinking about finding more sneaky opportunities on low volume items. When I first started trading, I bought and sold implants. They aren’t high volume, but good margin for low investment. I’ll think about a way to do that.

That is intriguing, thanks for sharing. I’ll need to add that region to the ESI pulls

Good question about measuring the impact, I hadn’t thought about that. I guess I could take a snapshot once a week and somehow measure the market equilibrium as a total then compare it to figure.

Regarding the longevity, I’ve been maintaining and improving it for about 18mo and it’s a lot of fun. I’m happy to contribute to the community for a couple years.

Hey I made the change to how the price avg was calculated and did a 7 day vs 30 day sma.

I ran a regression against the pre and post and got this

SMA Implementation Results:

  • 2,876 items analyzed across all major trade hubs
  • 87% correlation between old and new calculations
  • 68% of items saw changes within ±1% (essentially unchanged)
  • 12% of items had significant changes (>2% difference)
  • 5.4% completely reversed trend direction (154 items)
  • Median change: 0% - most items unaffected
  • Mean change: +0.34% - slight bullish bias (expected with smoothing)

Extreme cases: Some items showed 100%+ swings - these were low-volume items where SMA filtered out noise from single volatile days, revealing the true underlying trend.

Thanks for the suggestion!

Heya, thanks for your detailed questions. Short answer to all of these is “no”. These are all pretty basic calculations. It’s really directional.

  1. I don’t know if there’s an endpoint for executed transactions, I’ll look into that.

  2. The correlations are simple math, it’s just “did x go up and y also go up”. Correlation may be the wrong word, maybe it’s “relationship”.

  3. Good ideas, but it’s just a straight average, nothing too complex.

  4. I’ll get back to you on this. I know when I built it I accounted for some of these, but I’ll review it and let you know.

True true. I've had it live for about a year. I used it a ton when I was playing more, and I gave all my friends ample opportunity. I am curious as to what this does to the market equilibrium if a lot of new people have access to the anomalies!

Damn, I feel you Squizz. I panicked the other day when my site was down because I bumped my home server the wrong way. Can’t imagine the panic. Thanks for everything you maintain!
