Hikk's guide to successful investments V2
Please track + leave a comment!

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

First of all, I am going to teach you the must-knows of investing, here they are:

A snag is an item that is 25% off, of more, than the next lowest price, so if there was a pink penguin hat up for 75 R$, and the next price was 100 R$, that would be a snag. Just the same as if it was 74 R$ and the next was 100, all the way down to 51 R$ to 100 R$. After that is a different situation.

A snipe is an item that is 50% off, or more, than the next lowest price, so if there was a pink penguin hat up for 50 R$, and the next price was 100 R$, that would be a snipe. And that is the same for any price all the way down to the next common phrase.

An LPP is an item that is priced at it's lowest price possible (LPP), the way wich you work this out is you take the recent average price, as shown on the graph that is place above the prices, and divide this by 10, then, you add on 1 R$ and that is the LPP.

So, the formula to working out LPPs would be this:
(RAP/10) + 1
RAP being the "Recent average price".

And the formula to working out Snipes would be this.
LP/2
LP being the lowest price currently available.

AND the formula to working out LPP's would be this.
(LP/4 + (LP/4)*3)
LP being the lowest price currently available.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Now, I am going to teach you how to haggle. This is a good way to profit from items.

Haggling is all about getting the seller to sell their item lower than they would like.

Say if someone had their pink penguin up at 100 R$, and you wanted it for 70, a snag, you would offer them 40, if they decline, you then say "How about 50?"
Then you just keep raising the price every time they decline by a few ROBUX, until they accept or make an offer around the price you want.

This method can save you a good sum of ROBUX.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Now, for a more advanced method of investing, this is called "TCing", which stands for "Trade Currency"...ing, this method is a good way to make ROBUX, but can be rather hard to learn.
But here's a decent guide, if you really want to learn how.

You divide the ticket side.
And multiply the robux side.

Take this lets say these are the rates.

Tickets Robux
7.4563 8.3067
7.4000 8.3205
7.3456 8.4000

Lets say all your money is in tickets.
And lets say you have 1,000 tickets take that 1,000 tickets and divide it by 7.4563 and that is 134 robux. Put in that trade 1,000 tickets for 134 robux. Now when the trade is done. Use that 134 robux and multiply 134x8.3067 = 1,113 tickets. See? You made 113 tickets. And you just keep doing that.

Note: The rates are just an example. You will divide/multiply off the real rates on the TC.

Also, the SPREAD is the diffrence in the rates so a 1.0000 spread would be 7.0000 tickets and 8.0000 robux higher the spread the better

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Tips, tricks and warnings.

WARNING. DO NOT TRADE. YOU WILL MOST LIKELY GET SCAMMED.

Try checking an item every day for good deals, you never know you could make a quick ROBUX or two!
Also, a nice little trick is to place your item 1 R$ below the other persons item, as this gives your item more of a chance of selling that theirs.


Now this is a really good trick, say if someone had a number 10,124 double rainbow, and you had a number 9,123. If theirs was priced at 100 R$, you could just price yours at 100 R$ and it would still have abetter chance of selling, as ROBLOX displays the lower numbers first!

@iVeyron

How many snipes/LPP's do I give out a week?
Loads more than you, that's how many.

And I've given away most of my items, not taken them from people.

"Also, a nice little trick is to place your item 1 R$ below the other persons item, as this gives your item more of a chance of selling that theirs." Price waring more like. I'd buy the one for a extra 1 ROBUX more, atleast they won't be price waring.
