Topic: fleet disband and market play

I'm currently leaving my gc at 0 and letting my fleet disband.

But I'm also playing the market.  Now if someone  buys my endo while I'm sleeping, then the gc will get eaten up by upkeep.

Anyway around this.

Re: fleet disband and market play

if u play the market without upkeeping it's very hard.

-play on resources having lot of transactions:iron and maybe food (but could be a double problem on food since u must have no food and no cash at tick :s ) so stay on iron, maybe endo for very small amounts, forget oct.

-the problem isnt only going to bed, u have lot of players buying during tick count down. So u must refresh very often HQ during the count down. if u sudenly get cash in the 10 last seconds u dont have time to calculate the bid u can put with the gc u have. so just put it in science instead of losing the cash.

-go for small profits with lot of transactions: for exemple if iron is at 10gc buy ant 19gc sell, dont put 18.99 sells, u can be sure that at the end of the day you will have lot of bids to withdraw. Just sell it at 13 or 14 it will be sold faster and do it many times
