Gas- Sinclair Gas's Daily Market Evaluation

Post by Guest » 21.10.2008, 19:01

Sinclair gas will provide a daily update of the current market gas prices and the volume of gas being sold on the market. Sinclair Gas buys gas from the wholesale market when cheap enought, and produces its own gas to sell in our Gas Stations in France.

Daily update- 10/21/2008

Supply(France)- 90.550.682
Demand-(France)- 538.966.340
Average price-59,82

Demand has little (or maybe no) effect on prices unless the supply goes over demand. The true major components to the prices are Supply, Average Price, and Average Quality.

Supply - This will tell how much Gas is being sold. If amount increases, then Gas Stations have been expanded or built. Also, lower this number, the easier you can effect the average price and average quality.

Average Price - The average price of Gas the previous day. This price will sell a full store of Gas (that is same as average Quality) in exactly 24 hours. This is also used as the main baseline so the higher this is, the higher the prices will be.

Average Quality - The average quality of Gas sold the previous day. This serves as the main baseline along with average Quality and the 24 hr selling price for a full shop will be increased in a linear rate based on quality. The difference between the average quality and your quality is multiplied by a multiplier (I am unsure if the multiplier stays the same between countries and other days) which is then added (or subtracted) from the average price. If the average Quality decreases, then Gas prices will increase.

Not necessarily, if I sold gas in Germany and I was the only one and I sold half stores for 40 the average price would be 40, but you wouldn't be able to sell a full store for 40...

now you're thinking wrong ain't you?

canadian could sell a full store for 40 at approx 24h
you would set a higher price tomorrow to maintain half rack 24h cycle

Actually, I did some testing on the relationship between the stats, selling price, and time. Setting everything by the stats (average price, average quality, full employees, full stores, no ads) for that day will end in 24 hrs but ads do take an effect (I forgot the time reduction percentage with full ads) so I tested it on another realm without ads. I had several spreadsheets filled with stats and research from difference between qualities, percent of shop filled, and there is the price is proportional to everything else. Soon I created a few formulas to predict the selling price for X amount of X quality in X time but it wasn't prefect and often off by mere minutes, seconds, and sometimes hours because the stats are rounded and the price increase per quality increase is never exact for each area or even day.

But during a clean-up for my hard drive a few months ago, all that research was lost. I am willing to start up the research again for the formulas to save time in the future so there is minimal guessing for setting the price to get a certain time for selling cycles but I am busy with school so I won't be able to get much done anytime soon. I hoped to have used this to predict the selling price of Q0 products in Germany, France, and Turkey so all three will be at price for Q0 so it is much easier to monitor the change in price over time and between areas.

Hmmm... I keep dumping 25 Mil Gas in total every week on the market at 30+1Q. And Most of them are bought about 5 minutes after i posted them on market.
