My first market tool, open for suggestions

Went live with my first shot at a new market tool, hope this will help all new/experienced players. You can read more on the website but the TLDR is a site that calculates the best items to trade per region every day.

Tool: evemarkettool.com

Again, open to any suggestions or improvements as this will really help shape the tool.

Parse the buy order returns into a humanly logical format, not just the raw return, and for the love of god use digit group separators! 11111111111111111111111111 is a lot harder to read than 11,111,111,111,111,111,111,111,111.

As Krysenth said, make it human readable.

  1. Hide technical IDs
  2. Digit grouping
  3. Consider sales taxes and broker fees, 4% are gone rather fast

The TypeIDs can be useful for some people. Using a 5-8 digit number vs what could be a 40-50 character long name is easier for a few things. Additionally, sales taxes and broker fees are highly variable character to character. Having a margin value instead would be able to show people whether it falls below their minimum spread levels. For example, I dont bother with anything less than 7%, or I stall out my price changes on things I have listed, and wait for the market to bounce back in my favor. Mind, that 7% does also cover both sides of the transaction.
