X4 6.00 - Guide - Trading - Basic to Advanced Trading - Kingdom End

Hello everyone and welcome to another video about To get the benefit of knowing what you want to get out of this, you need to put the two together, but I've created them as separate videos because there are some things about one thing that are necessarily important to the other, so today. This is about

trading

, so let's jump right into it and talk about the first thing we need to do, which is the initial game stuff, so let's get into our little map. Now some of this will be on the menus. I'm afraid I love it, to be fair, because most of your operations are going to be done in a menu.

Now, most of the things you do you can do in your own personal vehicle if you have your own boat. size, you can do most of this manually, but most of you will probably do it in the automatic water phase sooner rather than later because that's how you'll mostly earn credits, so most people will start with a pretty ship. small as you can see here. I have a small Courier ship and we're not going to be able to do much in terms of automating the race. If we turn to our Behavior, you'll probably have something that looks a little like this monster.

The trade is in a sort of phase-out. You can do some local auto trade, but you can only choose one material. If we go for whole pieces, then we can go to Anchor Space and go to Argon Prime and confirm the Most likely, this ship can do something in the system and the reason is because of something I have already done before, however, it probably won't. you will be in the same situation, what do I mean by that? Well, if I zoom out, you'll notice that I can see most of this map. I have satellites currently set up on my system that allow me to view the entire system.

You'll notice that I have a nice fresh blue color. icons if we have some that do not have map coverage, you will see that they are darker blue, now you will not be able to see something like this, you will actually have it where the map is uncovered, but you will still have the blue markers are blue, the only The reason I have it like this is because I set up the custom game to know where all the stations are, but I haven't actually visited them physically, so if you have these icons here, which are all dark blue, it means that they currently don't. knows what they really offer in exchange.

If we set up our business filter, you'll notice that there are no business filters, there's nothing there, they don't know what's needed. What is not necessary we will close. I'll talk more about the trade filter in a second, so let's go back to Argon Prime and you'll notice that my ship is trying to find trades, so this is your

basic

. box dump looking for trades however there is something else we can do instead of doing local car trades because technically we don't know if what we set up is what we need so there are two things we can do with that first , so I've already mentioned trade filters, so to find out that literally goes here, you can go to your filter settings if you want or you can click on the trade filter and the trade will appear here.

Now you'll notice I haven't done that anymore. The entire pieces selected are remembered from my previous game, so if I remove that's what you would normally see, you'll notice there are three things sold in this area here, you'll see that the box is what this box here is what it's talking about . about you will see that all of our in the current screen that we have are within this box all the stations you will notice that we have also bought words in the same system, it is unlikely to find something that buys and sells the same and makes good profits because the greatest some of the AI ​​will do it for you, but if we zoom out, you'll notice that our box changes, now it's selecting other areas that we can find.

Now these are a darker blue, however, remember that things from these have been bought before and what I mean by this is that if I go here, you will notice that we know that these stations sell antimatter converters, whole parts and supplies doctors and We have purchased energy cells and food rations from Advanced Composites, however we do not have prices because, again, they are currently not visible, they have not been seen, so we do not know what they are offering if we go ahead and send a ship to one of In the seasons, you'll notice this is going to update and we'll look at it in a second, so what we can do is take a look and go well, what about refined metals?

You will see that they are selling it for 132 credits and then buy it for 118 credits again the area has it right at this door you probably won't buy it I won't be any profit for us sir useless what's up with the silicon wafers nowhere to be found? our sectors, not even buying silicone wipers? Electronics says Again, wait, we will scan your inventory. No one is going to buy, so it's very difficult to do anything in an area of ​​just one hex. You know a block, so you'll want to branch out and find other locations that you can see here if I bring. these two here here what about the power cells?

Ah, now the energy cells are selling energy for 19 credits and buying them here for 22 credits, that's three credits per energy sale profit, not much profit, but it's a profit anyway, so now we can go. Back on our race boat, we haven't changed anything with our cruise. Its current default behavior is to sell entire pieces on argon prime or buy and sell on Oregon Prime at a very low level, so it won't do anything else, we'll set it up. we can do more than that so what we can do is go to everything we can buy energy sales now you can do one or two things you can set it manually and just do it with one operation or what we can do is We can delete by complete the local car trade and we can continue repeat orders once it reaches a star.

It currently does not have a star. It's completely

basic

, so we can't do it, so we'll be fine. I want to buy energy cells. Hover over it and you'll see that it's telling us that the solar power plant here will buy them, so we'll negotiate and buy the maximum amount of what we have now. You'll notice that technically this is actually still low supply, so now we're paying a 24 higher price, so let's go ahead and buy it now. You will see these orange markers. Don't worry about the orange markers. The reason these are orange is because we. you have a current failing behavior, if you want to get rid of it all you have to do is just right click and you will see that now they all have the normal color everything will be purple, sorry everything is orange but all you have to do is delete it. and it will reset it to none, of course, we don't remember that there are words bought here 22 credits, so if we get closer we can find it there, it sells worse, then we can exchange with Cell Wave, we earn 3709 credits. there's not much demand so it's actually a 37 increase in price so it's not a bad trade off to confirm that right now that ship is probably going to fail on that job because it's very unlikely to have land swapping without the connection from the other sectors, so that ship won't be able to trade because it doesn't know how to get there, so if you ever do a custom mission and set it to HQ and start an argon prime, just worry about that.

You'll have to find your way to the Grand Exchange, so keep in mind that's just a little added bonus. Now what we need to do is increase the stars on our ships and increase their size if you want. To learn more about pilot stars and why I mention it, watch my Palestar video and it will explain what the effects of power stars are. We have a basic merchant here again, he has the same star level as the larger The Courier zero Stars. The ship can only do so much blockade or trade again, but let's see the difference between what we had, so again we are going to zoom in, we are going to go to our solar power plant, we trade nine thousand two hundred cubic meters. prices before, but now we are going to go here, look for where we buy them, we buy them here, in fact, the price just dropped slightly, trade with 1872 credits, it is not a large amount, you will notice it so bad. with a credit gap it's already reduced us, but there you have it, you can see the size of the boat doesn't make any difference, it won't make any difference to us in terms of what we can do, it just means we can carry more.

So what is the advantage of a mediumship compared to the bonuses of a small ship? The general thing with traders is that they don't have the disadvantages that manners have and what I mean by that is that when a miner is going to mine something, he will do it. break up an asteroid and usually a small ship and a medium ship will break down an asteroid and if the asteroid is a decent asteroid you could fill both ships with that asteroid, not always not often but it does and it's an idea approximate. What you can do with it now you figure that a medium mana might take a little longer to extract minerals in an area, so your little ship sets off and drops what it has, which is going to fight back and forth constantly, while your medium miner is Currently mining is then sent with a larger amount to its storage area or cells, whatever sells it and then returns again.

The flight time is a little bit slower because it's obviously a little bit bulkier, however it sends you more so you have less travel time per Product, same for merchants, it's pretty self explanatory, it's pretty easy to understand When you think about it in terms of logistics, that is its main advantage. The second advantage is having better shields, better weaponry, more

advanced

weaponry and, in most cases, the price of them. to do weighs more because the little ones just can't handle the capacity now, once you've done a couple of these jobs where you keep sending them back and forth, so you may have to do it a few times.

Go find where you can sell things and make the best profits and again it may not be the best so leave it again, go well, how about you buy it worse? Tell Handinium Spices well 10 Endemium is a Delilah thing, no, I can. I can't find anywhere that will sell it again, no, spices, no, I'm not getting anywhere. I can do it now, at the moment, we're only looking at three. If you want to see more, what you can do is add and remove cables. here and you can go through and go okay, I want to see five different ones, um, let's take a look, yeah, we'll do these five here, press ok, what that does is it selects the first one of the five that you have. selected, but it's going to take it in order of um, basically, this is the capacity that you have and how much you're selling, so you'll see here that this has more purchases because it only has one of the smaller ones. hex blocks, it means you effectively have two free hex blocks, these will only need smaller quantities compared to storage, so your

advanced

compounds will have the ability to sell more before the price drops, that's how it works you see here. although we're not actually looking at both, there are both that are not in this area, but you have it selected, so when you go to an area that does have bofu, you will notice that it just brought it there, go a little bit there and it will. then go up to your top three, you could also do some other things, you can have the minimum volume, that's what is reduced as volume, that's the word I'm thinking of, so you can show trade offers with minimum volume per above a minimum. volume and you can see here it's a small media volume and a large volume, there you have it and then as we know we're only selecting five and the other two aren't even on although it's not going to change anything so that it's useless, you can also change factions, you can attract enemy trade offers or eliminate them if you want, but you can also increase the number of offers you have so you can set them up to five, so now we're seeing more, we're seeing antimatter sounds.

When it appears there, I tend to keep it free because it's a little easier on the screen. Well, that's the way you add more. I would remove words. If you double click on that button, you can delete everything. The jobs are good. You can also set it up for storage only, so if you want a container only solid only liquid because obviously these merchants only do certain things and obviously my basic merchants currently can't accept containers, if you want solids or liquids, then If you want a gas miner or If you want a mineral commodity, they probably won't appear too much just when you start doing it, but it's not often that they sell raw resources.

You can buy raw resources, but they don't often sell. them um or at least not enough for you toshow on your screen so that our Advanced Trader what can we do with this? Let's remove our filter. Let's go to our Advanced Trader. Let's open it. Now you'll notice we have some. Advanced Auto Trade options cover shortages and revisit familiar stations. Revisiting familiar stations is really good because it will refresh the trade offers, so if you do a ship that's free, a scout and a ship or something like that, you won't do much with it. revisit the non-stations, what that will do is update all of their trades, so obviously they will all be available, so where is this? nothing, then you will start to see the trades that we mentioned before about sending this ship here.

Now you'll notice that I now have a resource update of these two stations here and then I'm going to change the color that they have now. They gave me an update, whereas on a satellite it would do that for me. You see, we are now selling 198 credits for whole parts. If I click back here, I click on whole parts. I still won't make profits like this. you get more resources and start producing more whole parts, that price can go down as demand increases, that price can also go up. Look, it has um, yeah, it has a pretty big volume there, so it's not going to lower the price. to increase impression in the short term, so keep that in mind, well, you don't want to waste your merchant by rivers at those stations unless you have a messenger that you really don't want to use anymore, which leaves us with two other options.

In addition to the repeat orders I mentioned above, as it says at the small level, there are multiple exchanges found and made for a maximum load amount from one seller and sold to multiple buyers. They sell the current load first, which can sometimes have problems if you imagine that I set it up in whole parts and it's going to buy a full load or whole parts, then I'm going to try to sell everything, it will only sell what makes a profit, so that as profits fall, we're saying everything will be fine. I have these whole pieces in my cargo container.

I think I'll sit back and wait until sales come back and that's all it will do. It will stay there and take it. is good at making a profit, not only will it sell resources, for a loss, but it can also tie up your merchant ships for a period of time. Advanced Auto Trade provides and performs search and performs a trade execution with one of the specified words buy a quantity of cargo that can be sold immediately to a single buyer sell the current cargo first this is where you are going to get the most out of your ships.

What it does is that instead of selling to several merchants it will only sell to one, three goals instead of going well, I want to buy a full pass and then sell it to anyone so that he concentrates on where he buys it, who buys it will go whole parts, right? You are buying whole parts, who sells whole parts? TRUE? I'm going to buy 200 whole pieces from him at this price and then he goes out and buys them and then comes back and sells them. The trade has established itself as solid and has done its job, so it can add and remove worse things.

It can do everything. If you want the downside of doing everything to be that it can send your traders into all kinds of crazy patterns, you'll have a hard time finding some resources at times, sometimes you'll slow down trying to find a specific resource to sell. I would do it. I generally suggest going for the basics um claytronics is good power sales are fantastic power sales are always needed all the parts even graphene sometimes um silicon wafers obviously if you are working for Terence and you will need silicon carbide um or competition computronic substrates, water is sometimes good, but remember that water can cause problems if you have waves of greed and other good also are things like medicinal foods, any of them, but for me I make them five, so I put them up there. you have your anchor slot and now this goes, instead of just making an anchor slot, it goes well, you can go up to five doors away to get the resources and then five doors away to sell it again, same as mining, which It's five gate jumps. from argon prime so if you do five jumps in one direction you will return to argon prime we can go five times in the silver direction so technically that's ten and it's set as the anchor slot so be careful with that if you want to keep your ships from entering any territory, one you can set Global Order to stop that or two you can simply reduce the distance of your jump gate so it only reaches you, so if you know that at three jump distances there are an enemy territory, can block it. off, then you say only two, two or less, confirm that it will fire and search for them through resources again.

We don't have much as far as what we can see, but you can see that there is somewhere selling it. for 198 and buy it for 250. So there is profit to be made so the ship will now take a one minute trip and then when we get back to it we will probably have a trade order in our order queue so Check it out in a minute. The last thing you can do for traders is to set up a minor to trade for you. What this does is it will allow you to buy resources from one station and give them to another station so it doesn't care. anything you can set it to Advanced Auto Trade and you can also set it to do any of the resources you want and it will do the same thing which is actually really useful when you get two

trading

resources like that you can make a lot of money and you can also keep your stations running much better.

The last thing you can do, which I consider a metaphor for both mining and trading, is to build stations. You will notice that I have a basic trade and an advanced trade. station here the basic training station is what will probably come to the docking platform and one or all three warehouses this looks like this nothing I want to exchange certain things I want to go whole parts for now and that means my station is going to buy all the pieces or from anyone right now, it won't stop you if I create a purchase offer, everything will be fine, I will buy from anyone, I will automatically price it and then I have to sell it, I will automatically price it. sell that means you will buy and sell anyone on anything or is it the same thing again create buy offer create sell offer this means the station here will start doing things for you and you will start getting some money Sometimes you make sales that They are not that good in price.

You see that you are buying at 271, while you saw that some of the stations were not offering that price for that, so sometimes you can have a small loss, but in saying that. it goes outside the general rule of economics, so if there are resources available, you will get the highest price, you will get whole pieces and then you can sell it at a higher price, sometimes, sometimes, what it also means is that sometimes As your station gets the next resources, the price goes down because you don't need it, it's not in much demand and then you can go ahead and then sell it for a smaller amount, so it has its own balance sheet and usually makes a profit, which also means is that you go out of your stations, um star rating, so you see here, if we go with our team, we have a zero star rating because it's a basic station, you'll also notice that now the icon has changed.

It is now a trading station because all it does is trade now. If I go to my basic Trader, I right click and then switch to Commander, which I'm not going to do because I already have a few of them, one, two, three. four five Trade four Commander Alpha what that's going to do now is they're going to look at the exchanges for buying and selling, ignore what their style levels are and we're going to get out of the station star level, since it's a low star level, it's probably going to go to fight, you will probably only see yourself in this sector and you may have a hard time doing it, but as time goes on you will get better and you will get better and you do, you don't just do this sector, you can, you will probably get better at the sector as well, so it will take a moment that we must also take into account, it will also ask others that you already know, from other ships that I fly on, they will see that you have requirements for what you want to buy, then you will know to buy from the merchants who pass by and then your merchants will be able to sell to other stations.

Great for leveling up Stars for your managers too. The next one I want to talk about is the advanced one I have here. Now this one has a high build rating so the same thing happens again if we go to our logical overview and we have mild trading words and we go to all the parts or we don't need the Dr but we'll go buy and sell whole parts now that has a higher star rating, you are likely to make more profit from your resources, so the price will fluctuate a little better, not only that, but all your subordinates will go further to look for your trading sales, so if we do zoom here you will notice that it was sold for 213 worth so I could buy them so go yeah I will buy the cheapest chips and then I will put them in for you to buy then they will be sold to anyone who passes by and I will also tell anyone in the distance.

Hello hello. I got resources but again the same thing that applies to you also applies to the AI ​​and if the AI ​​doesn't have ships flying towards it then it won't update trades so also keep in mind where you are putting your stations, you'll notice that my stations aren't far from the jump gates, they're probably too far from where they are here and they're not between other jump gates, so your Prime here right now is on this line here. so you want to send me anywhere here anywhere here or anywhere here you know anywhere along these anything that's traveling in this location here we'll pick it up we'll update your business offer and then you'll have another potential sale so Keep that in mind but there our own merchants will be able to do the job so the only other thing I want to comment on is placing a global order and the reason I mention this is if you want to restrict your purchase to something else e.g. , I say: I have a whole parts factory that makes whole parts.

I've set it up to also do the same thing I'm about to do now, but then I want to offer it to you. I want to offer my surplus to the general population. from the Galaxy we can do this by creating a trade rule, so we'll call the trade rule um just my faction, this doesn't need to be a default, but we'll trigger all the factions to allow only my saved trade rule, my faction only so go Well, I have a station that is building entire pieces, so my Advanced station is going to work fine. I just want to shop at my own stations.

Here we have a small cross trade restriction. What this means now is that you will only buy. from my faction which also includes my merchants, so if my merchant has leftover resources he will sometimes pick them up and place them at the station because technically it is his merchant's because he is not responsible for anyone else, they are my resources, so what will buy them. my Trader and it will deposit it into my training station where we will then provide it to everyone because we have not put a restriction on the sell order, only the buy order, so sometimes we can release your Traders.

What it also means is that if we set up our commercial station to do this and then we have our entire partial station where it works fine, I have a certain amount of storage. I've set it up for just my faction and then this station only has a couple of merchants. The station will only take what it can from the entire power plant to accommodate everything it can carry. If you're working well, you can have it where the station produces more than you know your merchant ships can carry, which gives you a nice little delay and also gives you something to be able to sell to other merchants, so I hope this works out. has clarified.

How to trade, there's not much to do with trading until you really start looking at it, the only other thing we want. What you really have to cover to do trading is the actual logistical side of things in general and the economics itself, um, off the top of my head, the only thing you're going to have a problem with is trading orders. failed and the reason why that is usually because there are no trades available um but once you start getting into advanced trading you will find that there are less and less or if it happens you will quickly acclimate to something else and continue with your work so I hope that helps if you have If you have any questions about training specifically, leave them below this video here and I'll try to answer you on any of the issues and if it's enough issues I'll do another video following this one um.

It's really just a basic idea of ​​the trade, hopefully it will help people who may be struggling with it and why it is alsoimportant to get involved in it. Training is one of those things where, as you grow, you will make money. that's going to flow casually now it's not about economics it's about trading but what I will say is that selling energy is one of the most important things that will help you especially when you want to try to level up your traders look for energy cells. Every station uses power cells in one form or another, unless it's a solar plant, so keep in mind that you'll need power cells, so that's one of the things you'll consider for swapping out entire parts.

Secondly, as I say, I hope this has helped you understand a little more about trading. If you have any questions, comments or anything like that, please leave it in the comments section below if you liked the video with a thumbs up. Subscribe for more content, but until next time, everyone take care for now, unless I see you all next time, bye for now.
