Recently I realized that many people don’t know how to utilize their carrier to its full potential. Shoot, I may be missing some things as well. Some people may be holding off on purchasing one due to worries about upkeep or because they don’t see these massive hunks of metal profitable. Well today I will share the tricks of the trade and help you make 100+ million per day without doing anything other than clicking around a commodity market twice.
Passive Income –
First things first. Get yourself a customer base. I use my squadron. My carrier acts as the head of our trade operations. Our record so far is 800 million made for a couple of our members in 3 days. My profit was my from this endeavor was 500-600 million from doing nothing.

Look over their posts and then create your own when you’re ready.
The main commodity I use is Agronomic Treatment. A typical order looks like this:
“LOADING PHASE:
The October Sunshine will be loading – 20,000 units of Agronomic Treatments
Buy Station #1 – Quick Vision
Sell To Carrier – October Sunshine
Credits Allocated For Loading Phase – 260,000,000cr
Import price – 13k
Credits Allocated For Unloading Phase – 100,000,000cr
Export price – 25k
Problems may arise, so if they do, drop a message here and we’ll get it sorted”
Making sure the pilots working for you are well informed is key. Drop the carrier outside the needed location, set up your commodity market, then post an order.
Now you can get off for a few hours, go grind robigo, or do some combat for fun. Whatever you want!
Non-Passive Income –
If you’d rather do the leg work your self, simply load your carrier with a cheap commodity, then unload where you can sell it high.
For both methods, buy low sell high still applies. It’s simple trade, but with you as the middle man making good money!
I hope this helps! o7 and out CMDR.
