Commodity trading
Commodity Trading
Commodity Trading is the buying and selling of commodities. It's possible to create quite a bit of money when you buy low and sell high. You can currently buy and sell in the Crossing guild, Arthe Trading Pit, and Leth Trading Pit.
The maximum units of commodities you can hold on your caravan is: (CIRCLE * 4) + (2 * TRADING)
Here's a table to help with Commodity Trading. I know there's a list of each commodity's highest and lowest values, but currently I can't find it. I'll try to do the research myself for a while, but if anyone has the numbers please feel free to add.
The Table will (in time) provide information to determine if and when to buy a commodity, how many of each commodity is available to buy or sell at a given time, and how much the price can go up or down.
