Cellerdoor Posted June 30, 2008 Author Share Posted June 30, 2008 that this formula would require that we know the amount transacted and the value it occurred at. Both 2 unknown variables. We can gain insight into them however by using the 1x method. The best scenarios would be at extrema values (the peaks). The amount transacted would factor out in both the numerator and denominator and left only with the value it transacted at, and as it is near extrema, the value is approaching the extrema, but not quite meeting it.

Ermy Posted July 1, 2008 Share Posted July 1, 2008 You shouldn't bump so much, your thread can get locked. It's best to bump when it's on the second page. Ot:Good guide, shame i've merched for over a month now :D Those with a little bit of knowledge are more dangerous than those with none. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What980 Posted July 5, 2008 Share Posted July 5, 2008 What a nice read. I don't really have enough cash or time at the moment to mess with this, but I love that there are people in this world who believe in gaining all the knowledge you can and putting it to use in whatever you do. +1 to you. :thumbsup: When my goals are concluded I will see just how much I can push myself to be different in my ways of making money on Runescape and understand this vital necessity to living large in the real world.

dutchphoenix Posted July 7, 2008 Share Posted July 7, 2008 Very very good guide. =D> I'm just wondering where to invest in when you've got about 3-4 mill to spend? I'll try the chat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xcowx Posted July 8, 2008 Share Posted July 8, 2008 This is an excellent guide. I can tell you went to great lengths to provide us with this information. At first I thought this was a spur of the moment kind of guide where someone buys 'x' amount of item at 'x' amount and logs in a few days later and sees that it went up a ton so he decides to write a guide about how to be successfully lucky (Which we all know is not possible :lol: ). But, as I read further, I realised that this was the real deal. :shock: The formula is brilliant! I knew about a few of the methods you were mentioning, but it never was guaranteed to materialize into a profitable acquisition. Now, it appears all of this is possible. \ This is one of the most unique guides I have ever seen. Congratulations and I hope to see more! =D> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coenvg Posted July 8, 2008 Share Posted July 8, 2008 Very nice guide and very well written, perfect grammar (well your a Canadian, so you grew up with English I guess:) ) You pointed it all out excellently, and placed it all in categories, I did (and do) kind of the same since the GE release and it works out very well I can tell. (My only problem is: I die allot :roll:) The only bad think is that the clan chat seems a bit ehh... empty at the moment.

wioneo Posted July 11, 2008 Share Posted July 11, 2008 Do you happen to know the time that the GE prices update? I've noticed that the actual GE updates a while before the database, which really makes checking it a hassle...Also, I've heard that the prices of different categories update at different times, is that true?

Our_Moon Posted July 12, 2008 Share Posted July 12, 2008 So you've decided not to join my Clan? I PM'ed you about it a few weeks ago, and i'm still waiting on an answer... I do agree with your guide.

saberbladetwo Posted July 12, 2008 Share Posted July 12, 2008 This is a great guide. One thing though, I dont understand how to predict the price of something the next day.

Melkolmr Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 I am also still confused. In the example, 90k runes are sold. Now, am I selling the 90k runes? It seems as though I'm trying to estimate it, but I absolutely cannot see how this can be done using the 1x method, which gives me only the price at which a given, specific transaction takes place. In short, I'm not sure where the number of runes sold is coming from. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
