Financing Combat

I did a few favors for my trading buddy years ago and as a result we went into "business" together. And that my friends is how I support my habit of losing ships. He's been telling me some of the details of how he is making his trading decisions and its pretty interesting. He's tapped into a service called eve-central to download observations of the current state of the market. And from theses observations he has a program which can extract and estimate the amount of goods sold and the price's they are buying and selling for. This allows him to estimate the potential profit for each item. He's quite secretive with the inner workings but I can say for sure that it is working.
