At its core, trading is a painfully simple concept we are all used to in our lives through some medium or another. Going out to buy a bag of candy? Congratulations, you’re involved in the trading process. Elite: Dangerous doesn’t put you into the feet of a kid in a candy store though – well, unless you’re buying weapons and ship upgrades. Instead, you will be that delivery guy who no-one ever sees transporting the good to be sold.

Anyway, that’s enough warbling about what trading actually is. Time now to delve into the dark, cash-filled recesses of Elite: Dangerous.
