Alpha Market Trading - 2.1 billion of wealth

21 March 2026

The background to this series: i aiming to use Regional Trading between Jita and Dodixie to take an alpha account to Omega status.

My wealth is 2.1 billion, the weekend is always good

This is day 42 of this project.



Range of Items sold

I am now happy to go to a maximum of 300 million purchase price in Jita.  But also happy to be as low as 100k.

Right now, the most valuable item i have for sale is a Torrent for 342 million and the lowest is a missile blueprint for 2.98 million.

The Ships are doing well.  But so are the 3 million missile Blueprints.

The biggest battle is keeping a list of ideas of items to sell.


Sell Orders now in Dodixie

Each character has a maximum of 17 order slots = 17 x 5 = 85 slots in total.

Right now i am using 54 slots, so 31 spare slots.








Comes to a total of 2.1 billion isk as Sell Orders.


Current Wealth.

If i only look at ISK + Market Orders + Items in Inventory that are to be sold (so ignore my catalyst, ammo etc), then my worth is 2.1 billion which is made up from

ISK 56m
Inventory 0m
Courier Contract incoming 336m
Sell Orders 2109m
Provision 422m

I have always taken a 20% provision against my Sell Orders which reflects the Transaction Tax that will be paid when the items sell + the cost of reducing the price to keep it competitive if required + the eventual reduced price when sold.  In reality, i rarely end up needing this provision.  But lets keep things conservative and understand that the only ISK is ISK.  Everything else is an approximation until sold.
