Should I be looking at doing Caldari missions to get my standings up, and how high will my standings need to be ? Do I need to be in my own corp, does this help ?
Many thanks for any help in advance. I have a good wallet balance to go into this with, have no idea where to begin so thought i'd start at the beginning and get the basics done.
Please feel free to leave help here or to mail me direct, again many thanks. |

Before you play the market as a source of income you want the Accounting and Broker relation skills trained to level 5. This will reduce your trading frictions to 1% transaction fee and 2.5% brokerage. You can reduce the brokerage to 2% with standings. If you intend to trade in Jita, you'll want to boost your standing with Caldari State and Caldari Navy.
As a manufacturer, my margins are pretty good and I'm less concerned with the fees than a trader will be. With 5.68 faction and 5.14 corporate, my broker fee is 2.28%. Since standing increase is a percentage of the difference between your current standing and 10.0, you will experience diminishing returns. I run the SOE Epic Arc every 90 days for an 8% boost but otherwise I don't worry about it.
Edit: This assumes you're trading in an NPC station. Things work a bit differently in Citadel markets because the Broker fee is controlled by the Citadel owner and is not affected by skill or standing with any NPC entity (it may be affected by standing with the Citadel owner). |

You will be at least buying at a citadel at 0% fee, so standings are less important now.

What if I don't want to buy and sell from acitafel? What if the owner goes afk. What if I don't want to build one because I don't want the hassle of fuel and vultimers |

Then you have to pay the standard ~2-2.5% to NPCs .

If the owner goes AFK, so what? If the market goes offline, move to another one, you dont have any items in the citadel.
If you get 10/10 standing, you pay 5% total taxes + fees (10/10 is....not trivial to get).
A guy with 0 standing, but sitting in a citadel, pays 3.5% taxes + fees.
A guy with 10/10 standing sitting in a citadel pays 3% taxes.

Then have at it... You'll lose a competitive edge to those who are willing to, but this is Eve, so do what you want. |

So I don't need to grind standings, just sit in a Citadel doing all my buying and selling from there ? |

Atm many professional traders are putting up their buy orders in citadels while collecting in Jita and selling from there.
