Main born 2013. This Jita trading alt 2018, if I recall. running like 5.05% broker/trans overhead. Returned one month ago after 5 years and POE2 burnout. Happy to report, despite everything I’ve read about the decline of Eve trading, daily income running around 200 million, without too much refreshing. My main runs low sec data/relic and would like to pay for as many blown-up, well-fitted Stratios as needed. Working just a half dozen markets. Like others, cant tell you what they are. But they are out there. ---

The secret is to mess with other .01 strategies. Change it by 1,000s to shake it up. ALWAYS check out price history to check high/low boundaries. Jita needs weekly options. Then we can play chicken. ---

Avoid, avoid, avoid high volume (salvaged materials). Controlled by oligarchs. Hit the small caps. Don’t play narrow spreads for teenies. You’re welcome. ---

I spend dozens of hours decoding relic/data in low and null with my level 5 modules. An alt that makes a billion isk in 4 to 5 days in Jita pays the entrance fees. And it just takes three or four log offs and refreshes/per day, between scanning down signatures. ---

Sarcasm. Just one more service I offer for free. I’ve been playing EVE for 19 years. There’s bittervets and then there’s…me. But to answer your question about the Stratios, just watch a YouTube video. EVE is a 22 year old game. There are literally 137 million in-depth, instructional videos for any question you could ever have… ---

… ‘old game’ is the issue. it’s a Shakespearean-level classic. ‘Playing cards’ have been in existence since the 13th century. No reason this online pioneer wont last another 8 centuries. the math is insane. “Playing cards were found in the Middle East by the 13th century, and in Southern Europe by 1350.” ---

> [@Tushe\_en\_Daire](#): > > how do I fit Stratios to deal with Forgotten, Unsecured AEGIS and SOC escalations? In general, Stratios is a too-expensive and too-juicy target for those sorts of activities. For some suggestions, you can check this thread: [https://www.reddit.com/r/Eve/comments/18gmzlz/stratios\_fit/](https://www.reddit.com/r/Eve/comments/18gmzlz/stratios_fit/) That thread and some others will sometimes link to blogs at Ashyin.space which had some excellent tips and articles, but unfortunately has been taken down due to excessive EVE drama. You can still find some of that content using archives from the Wayback Machine: [https://archive.org/](https://archive.org/) Such as: > **[How 2 Krab Part 3: Low-Class Sites » Ashy in Space](https://web.archive.org/web/20231207093032/https://ashyin.space/how-2-krab-3-low-class-sites/)** > > Part 3 of How 2 Krab.
