Long Haul

Freighters can be a great way to earn ISK. Forget about hauling in low sec unless you want to get ganked and lose about 850mil. plus whatever you are hauling. Player contracts really don’t generate much income unless you are willing to risk going into lawless space and you should do this in a jump freighter. If you want to jump right in and get the most out of your freighter make sure you have about 1.5bil. ISK left after buying it. Place some huge buy orders for minerals and trade the margins. Make sure you buy enough with a large enough margin to avoid spending all of your profits on broker fees and taxes.

Topava suggest day trading Liquid Ozone in Jita. Use moderation in your buy orders as this commodity moves slowly.

Thank you for the tip re: moving minerals.

It would be great if you could post sometime on more details about this strategy. Notably, do you buy in Jita and sell elsewhere? It seems to me like buying elsewhere is the best plan, since Jita prices seem to be a bit higher for minerals usually?

This is a great blog, and a great service. Thank you!
