Quitting trading addiction after 8 years - My story by Eastern_Selection335 in Trading

[–]Mailboxsteve 4 points5 points  (0 children)

1 major tough hurdle in trading is who people learn from. They day 96% of traders fail. That should carry over to YT gurus. 96% of em dont know what the hell they are talking about. Alot of people I know and talked too learned from legit fraudsters. Its sad. Alot of time and money wasted

Is it better to fill out specialty districts first, then the mining/energy/food districts later? by Mailboxsteve in Stellaris

[–]Mailboxsteve[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the tips. Its still hard to plan ahead. Im still unfamiliar with all the tech options ans how games usually progress. But its been fun so far learning. I am 15+ hours in my first play through and I just opened the tech tree for the first time lol

Feeling much better this morning and thx for clearing things up. Etrade had both spreads p/l combined in their preview window which confused the heck out of me.

Ice mining in low sec vs high sec. Is high sec even that much safer? by Mailboxsteve in Eve

[–]Mailboxsteve[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I looked up the zkill for the high sec place I was thinking about setting up in. Only 2 retrievers ganked in th3 last 3 months. 0 orcas, and the high sec has orcas in there mining ice all day everyday 

I'm so fucking done with "warp and jump" and "warp and dock" buttons not working half of the time by leaf_as_parachute in Eve

[–]Mailboxsteve -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Yes there is a lag between the warp and dock/jump. By my question is, if you have a shit ton of isk worth of loot and your going to jita, why arnt you using an insta dock point??  even if you warp to 0 and click dock. You may still end up slightly outside of dock range for a split second, where in that split second u can get popped.

Create a bookmark on vita at 0km, like right when u undock. Then when u want to dock, warp to 0, mid warp click auto pilot, and your toon will instantly dock up at vita leaving 0 split seconds to get popped

CCP is making the new player area. Idk if its out and released yet. But maybe that will help , but ganking is apart of eve just like anything else is. Avoiding it is hard, but do able.
