I use the radio buttons to update via keyboard. Type first letters of a commodity -> tab -> up/down in the radio buttons -> shift+tab -> next commodity. If you remove the radio buttons, please add keyboard shortcuts for all the states, like maybe 1 - 7.
Awesome tool btw., keep up the good work! =)
Yes I had this, I then discovered a station or two recorded against the wrong system... but that may have benn funger trubbel originaly .
Great app
Nice work ArchV1 thats a cool tool! Looking forward to seeing how this develops.
The new data entry mode is really cool. One suggestion for a small tweak though. Any chance you could make it order as per in the game and add a filter for category?

Click on the column headings and they auto sort by that column
It's not that specific. It lets you keep track of low medium and high demand and supply, and only in stations you visit and only if you decide to record them. This allows you to make generalisations such as "take this commodity from a high supply place to a medium demand place and you'll make more profit than if you take it to a place with no demand. This is completely unlike tools like Slopey's (nothing against those tools, I just prefer to play it like this) which give you access to information you wouldn't normally have and will give you specific amounts of profit available. It's basically the same sort of thing many of us were recording with paper and pencil, without having our desks covered in scraps of paper.
Not really, the supply and demand values tells you what will likely be a profit, prices are really not needed. Typically there are only 1 or 2 commodities from High Supply to High Demand and it's trivial to determine which is the "right" one to trade. Even High Supply to Medium Demand is a profit, for example.
I use a spreadsheet, and the ONLY thing I record it price. If something is HIGH and LOW demand across two systems and the price difference it 20CR, 200CR or 2000CR, you'll look very differently at the trade surely? So price is surely the most important information? Clearly I'm missing something?

And low prices due to MED/HIGH supply and high prices due to HIGH demand are that predictable that noting prices just isn't worth it? ie: A simple proportion of the item's cost?

OK... I'll take a look... But why not allow a price to be entered if people want to?
Are you saying if two systems have HIGH demand for Gold, that they will have the same buy price? And it's not possible one is 300CR more than the other? If you'd noted this, you then know it might be worthwhile heading to that one instead!

I had, until I starting to use this a few days ago, thought the same and wanted prices and still wouldn't mind them but am I starting to see it really isn't a major problem.
You can still trade HS to MD or similar and still make a profit, how much profit seems to be more linked to the base value of the commodity so high price items seem to make the best profits generally.
.
The advantage for me is now I have all the info in one place and it takes me far less time to collect useful trade data
Because it was never intended to do that.
Excellent, I was half way to making my own but your's is exactly what I wanted and was trying to do
Very many thanks
