From Alpha to Omega: A Capsuleer's Odyssey to EVE Trillionaire Status

Starting from the humble beginnings of an EVE Online alpha trader, join me on the journey towards becoming an EVE Trillionaire. Inspired by the markertsforISK blog, I'm embarking on this adventure to share every step of the way. It won't be a swift or glamorous ride, but one filled with honest toil and genuine delight as I personally am fascinated by the financial industries. So, let's dive in together and enjoy the journey of playing EVE Online! Here's the roadmap...

First and foremost, I need to spin up a new character - I'm probably going to name it very similar to the blog for continuity's sake in my brain. From there I'll finish up the NPE (New Player Experience) Missions and will have what seed capital I will for getting the journey start ahead. From there the plan is to start with some day trading some high ISK velocity items to attempt to rotate the capital through as quickly as possible for quick growth of initial funds, after achieving probably a few hundred million I'm planning on moving into more of the regional trading at trade hubs, through hauling from Jita to other locations. All the while I'll be training trading skills in the background to continue to become more and more efficient within the markets. This will take some time to get accomplished so I'll come back with another post when I've completed the character spin up, and get the first mission out of the way and the seed capital gathered. Talk to you then!

April '24 Review

April Opening Statement The time I've had in April to dedicate to sitting down and looking through and updating orders was a little more limited than what I had originally thought I was going to have, however, I still did find some time at least once or twice a week to come through and look at things to day trade and make a few ISK on top for the trouble. As I had stated, I have decided to focus on the Amarr trade hub as I don't have time with real-life - life and a job to dedicate to micromanaging the orders in a larger hub like Jita, so I've decided to focus on consumables such as charges, ammo, drones, and the like. The margins aren't huge, especially with the limited skills of an Alpha character. Still, I have managed to turn a small profit with somewhere in the neighborhood of 5 - 10 minutes of looking at items to get into and updating any open orders I have, this is probably happening in a good week at a rate of 2 or 3 times a ...

The Start Up

Character Creation Having just gone through the character creator for the first time in the last decade, I like it a lot - Instead of just seeing a basic history of the Empire your choose through very minimal lore, you can see what the ships are designed around for their bonuses for the most part. Good job CCP on this one, it really makes it feel like you're educated and prepared to make the choice rather than it feeling random. I decided to go with Amarr because I want to start my journey in Amarr space and don't really want to the take the 45 jump journey from Jita to Amarr, otherwise I would have choosen Caldari like I had for all other characters I've created, mainly because missiles and shields take so much less brain power to operate through missions. Ulimately not something that will matter as after starter missions I'm planning on just sitting in stations updating orders occasionally. Also - let me talk about the NPE.. they have an awesome video to get you...
