Hi everyone,

Im having a bit of trouble selling ore and i can’t really search my way out of it.  
I am trying to sell my Omber, but i get these red line across the item.  
What i have found out is that this is when there are no active buy orders.  
But I am at the station where the buy order is from.  
What am i doing wrong. Its my first try at Omber, so maybe there is some rules i dont yet understand.  
Thanks in advance 🙂  
Kind regarrds

It will also redline if you are trying to set it as instant buy/sell, instead of a set period.
