Question 3

How much profit can I make per 4-hour buy limit of Pike?

Question 4

What is the estimated GP/hour flipping Pike?

Accepted Answer

Based on a live volume of 24 trades per hour and the current net margin, an unbottlenecked flipper can expect roughly +120 gp/hour (capped by the 6,000 / 4h buy limit). Real GP/h depends on competition and how patient your orders are.
