In this video about Elite Dangerous I am going to talk about an "exploit" that I encountered just by accident.

The full story would be that I am in the process of creating my own eddb type of thing (you know: eddb.io, but then different). To test case the profits for trading I figured out that in its current state that the commodity Agronomic Treatment is the most profitable item for trading (non mineral / metals since those are mostly acquired by mining)

While doing this testcase I realized that the station where I bought them from are 300 credits, while the buying station bought them for 11000 credits. Profit: 10700 per item. So... doing that with lets say 300 ton of cargo. It equals to about 3 million. For a single run.

And then I realized the demand part... Which is... zero.
