A general question, surely. I have some guesses but I'm sure I haven't covered everything: -number and activeness of competitors -isk, time, and sp cost in acquiring an item -popularity of an item -anticipation of future price of item -effect of round numbers
Anything that anyone can add or expand upon would be appreciated. I'm just trying to fine-tune what I look at when I trade.

Whatever the hell the market will bear. If you can get some sap to buy Phalanx Rockets for 50 isk/each, then sell away.

from my perspective theres 2 things i look at.
First is the minimum price i can sell an item. This is based on materials cost production cost and the time it takes me to manufacture.
Then i look at the market and see where i can sell for the most. Movement and market manipulation plays a role here. ------------------------------

The convenience/availability factors can drive prices up over 100% over standard hub prices. Never underestimate the buyer's willingness to reach for his wallet to save a few jumps.

The markets are held together by the pricing mechanism, and it can be quite complicated. Prices are essentially a reflection of all of the underlying conditions in reality and in the markets. To understand the price you have to understand the role that the price mechanism plays in making the markets work, in signalling to suppliers, in influencing buying decisions and so on.
Oh, and then add some randomness
