How do you all know the price of the item ? How do you earn so much if there is so much power trader ? Do you power trade kunnavang or armbrace or highend weapon like dhuum soul reaper?

Why don't you sit in Kamadan all day everyday, pay attention to everything, make notes and do your own homework? You can also use this forum's Ventari section to research as well. If you don't have the time, patience, or knowledge to do that you won't be good at power trading even if you tried.

Basically this, without the angry and very mature answer.

Just monitor the trade chat, and you'll learn the prices. Of course, they're not always right, and often people ask for more than what it's worth, or buy for less than it's worth.

Yep i pretty much agree with byte, (even with his sarcasm)

Monitor the prices of how much people want for an high end item, then see how much people are buying them for........ Sometimes you overpay for a stupid item... but then get some guy willing to pay alot more :P

Why dont you just sit in Kamadan like us nolife all day everyday, pay close attention to noobs and leets in trading chats. You can also use ebay, to help provide with golds. If you have kids and wife, I suggest you should not become like us..so called powertrader 24/7 spamming trade chat no lifes.

ready to put my flamesuit on =/ lol.

I have never power traded per say I would have thought, but make a very nice profit on a few items which I generally want. Say you collect minis like I do, know the prices on ALL your minis, (or just a few most are obvious prices so its not hard) and then whenever someone says WTB X if you have it offer it. If they offer less than 20k above what its worth say no thanks, (depends what mini and what profit you are after), sometimes theyll then offer more, sometimes not. Once sold do WTB X for 20k less than its worth until someone wants to sell it, easy 40k profit, (obviously numbers depend on value, if its worth 200e then more than 20k, if it is 30k then less etc). The ones I do are minis and EL Tonics, (although some of my minis I wont sell for any price).

Bear in mind you WILL make mistakes so dont invest all your wealth in something unless you are sure, sometimes you will have to make a loss and if that was everything you had it will hurt far more than if it is a small percentage.
