STOP SELLING FOR SO LOW...MAKE THESE DIRTY LAND TRADERS PAY FOR THEIR ATROCITIES!!!

I love these posts. With the exception of a few idiots who either sell ridiculously low or ridiculously high, the ingame rates are set by market demands. It's easy to say that no one should sell for under $200 (or whatever, I don't have countries right now), but if I have oilers that need to run turns and have no cash, I'd rather sell for $190 than have oil sit on market at $200.

its been steady around 250, and selling. idk why someone would sell for < 240

$298 oil! WOO HOO!!!

It's at $214 now :p

215 atm, lowest 180 and highest 275 past 24 hrs. ~130m barrels bought.

I stocked up on that $215 .. I'm good for the set. Unless I've gotta throw down on somebody

I fluffed up and bought up to 298...im selling for 197

I have 16 oilers...prepare for an overload of cheap oil if some retard keeps undercutting me

200 atm.

SELL LOWER!!!!!!!

If you're getting low balled by 10 bucks a barrel and can't sell, you obviously don't understand or fail to observe some fairly simple economic principles.

Here's your sign.

oh, you mean supply/demand, i understand it, but why sell consistently lower when it is selling for 250?

Gimme mo cheap oil!

i am...for $140

will drop to ~130 soon.

Fair question. The simplest answer is that countries fighting wars want cheaper oil, so they get their Oiler buddies to flood the market with as much cheaper oil as possible

I never liked running oilers because the damn market is so weird. Unless you have enough countries to keep daily stocks bought up under the prices you want to charge, it's not that great a strategy and honestly, the market is only gonna support oil to a certain price.

It's tempting to start selling oil "high" when a war breaks out, but a Casher or Techer for example has to buy food, oil, AND weapons. To me, that's why I'd run me some teched up rainbows to fight a war with.
