There are two ways to get uber rich on Roblox. One is create a game that gets on the front
page.... but that's sooo much work! The other, much simpler way is to manipulate the roblEX
currency exchange. In this guide, I'm going to tell you how to use the exchange to make profit, as
well as show you a few tricks to maximize your trading efficiency, so you can be the proud owner
of every collectible item you've ever wanted without having to spend a dime on robux or BC.
Getting started: This section is for users who have never used the exchange. Skip to Tips and
Tricks if you already know how the exchange basically works.
To get to the currency exchange, in case you didn't know, click on either your tickets or robux at
the top of the screen, or the Catalog button, then click "Trade Currency!" This is going to take
you to a page with so many numbers it scares most people out of their seats. So what does it all
mean? Let's start at the top middle of the screen in the little box right below the refresh
button. There are several terms here: pair, rate, Spread, and High/Low. Pair shows you the order
all ratios on the exchange appear. Don't think about it too much, it'll just confuse you. Under
rate, you will see two decimal numbers with a "/" between. The first number (the one to the right
of the "/") is the current tickets to robux rate, or BUX rate. The other (the one to the left of
the "/") is the current robux to tickets rate, or TIX rate. In order for a trade to execute, you
want YOUR rate(s) to be here. Spread is a complicated way roblox has derived for telling you the
current % of profit being made. It's derived from subtracting the TIX rate (bux to tix) from the
BUX rate (tix to bux) and then multiplying the difference by 100. Once you start trading, you will
notice the spread bounces all over the place. Don't worry if it falls to negative numbers. On
other guides, you might be told you will lose money if the spread goes negative. Quite simply,
that is not true. The last item at the top is the High/Low. This tells you what the highest rate
on the Robux side is, as well as the lowest rate on the tickets side is. Quite simply, these are
the worst trades on the market. With that said, let's start looking at the rest of the numbers,
shall we? You've probably noticed the two huge, ominous columns on either side of the screen.
These boxes are called "the books". Basically, "the books" is a waiting line for currency trades
on the roblEX exchange. In the books, you will see a huge listing of trades that look like 1000 @
7.8904, or something like that. The number before the @ is the ammount of currency being traded,
and the number after the @ is the rate. Now that you know what all the numbers mean, let's start
trading! Before you begin trading, you will need some sort of calculator. I like to use my windows
virtual calc because I can call it up from my keyboard and type faster on the number pad than I
can on a conventional calculator. But that's just me. Use whatever you want. Also, in order to
make profit on the roblEX exchange, you will need either 1000 tickets or 100 robux. SO to trade, here's the procedure I use:
- 1: Choose a rate. You want your robux rate to be as high as possible, and your tickets rate as
low as possible so that you get the best profit. However, bux - tix trades with the LOWEST rates
go through first, and tix-bux trades with the HIGHEST rates go through first. This means you
should find the trade that is second to the top on the books, and use that rate. - 2: Calculate the ammount of currency you want. For trading robux to tickets, you will multiply
the ammount of robux you wish to put in to the exchange by the rate you chose in step 1. For
trading tickets to robux, you will do the OPPOSITE of what you would do for robux, and divide your
tickets by the rate you chose in step 1. - 3: Submit your trade. When profiting from the exchange, you always use limit order, and leave
split trades enabled. Put what you'll give in the top box, and what the calculator gave you in
step 2 (rounded, of course) in the bottom box. Make sure you're asking for the right kind of
currency, and double-check the calculator to make sure you have the correct numbers. IMPORTANT! Do
you calculations carefuly! One typo can cause you to lose thousands of robux and tickets. - 4: Wait for your trade to go through. Patience is key on the exchange. Wait until ALL of your
money goes through before submitting a new trade on the first couple of times you try this.
Profit on the exchange is normaly 1% (spread 100), meaning if you trade 100 robux in, you will get
about 101 out. Also, the more money you put into the exchange, the bigger the profit will be that
you get out.
That's how to use the exchange. Read on to learn a couple of techniques I've developed that will
maximize your profits. (master the basics first before reading on. These techniques are pretty
complicated)
Tips and Tricks: Ok, so you know how to make money on the exchange, and now you're ready to start raking in the big
bux. Most of these techniques work best when you have 1000+ robux. First, let's learn how to break
all of that wealth up into more manageable chunks, so your trades go through faster. People
trading on the roblEX CE don't like waiting for massive amounts of money to go through before
their trade does. If you DUMP more than 10,000 robux onto the exchange as one trade, everyone else
is going to lower their rate under yours so they don't have to wait for all 10,000 of your robux
to go through. So, what do you do? Submit several, smaller trades so that people don't see 10,000
and skip around you. Let's say, for instance I have 1mil robux. If I put all of them on the
exchange at once, no one would want to wait for my trade to get done, and everyone would lower
their rates. This reduces the spread, which is detrimental to eveyone, so I'm not going to put all
1mil robux in as one trade. I'm going to submit a bunch of 5,000 robux trades at DIFFERENT rates
(not the same, because it still makes people want to skip me). I don't realy care if all of them
go through over the next several hours, because I can still make 50 robux off of each of these
trades if the spread is at its normal level (100). Once one of the trades goes through, I take the
tix I got and trade them back into robux. Right after that, I put another 5000 robux trade on the
books to replace the one that just went through. This means I'll be making money hand over fist,
instead of waiting like I would have to do alot of if I had put all 1mil of my robux in at once.
But what if some noob who hasn't read this guide DOES decide to dump all 1mil of his robux on the
exchange at an uber low rate that no one can beat? Watch the tix rate. Since the rich noob just
destroyed all of the spread by lowering the robux rate, everyone else is going to get off of the
exchange, and the tix rate is going to fall like a brick (which, mind you, is something you
definitely want). Eventually, the tix rate will fall low enough for everyon on the robux books to
cut in front of the abominable 1mil robux trade, and the spread will be higher, so you can make
more profit. Don't cut in front of people on the exchange just because they cut in front of you.
This is called a "bid war" and you will most likely reduce the spread to about 10. If some one
wants to cut in front of you, fine. Let their trade go through. I don't care if they just dumped
50,000 robux in front of you. If you cut in front of the guy, you won't get as much profit. An
interesting phenomena that works to discourage people from cutting in front of a trade that's
already started going through the exchange is rate decay. If you have a trade at the top of the
books, you might notice that the rate gets worse the longer it stays up there. What's happening is
some other users are making bad trades on the opposite type of trade than the one you're working
on. (i.e: your robux rate goes down because the tix rate goes up) That's about all I've got to
share with you about the roblEX currency exchange. Please feel free to post any tricks you might
have here, so that everyone will be able to make money faster. |
