TryHarx Posted July 29, 2018 Share Posted July 29, 2018 After getting a small loan of 3 keys, finally traded up to 17 keys (1 more when Friend accepts the trade). Was wondering if I should go up to 20 and what to do next. Unusual trading seems really difficult and I’m clueless on what to do Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HAWkEdx Posted July 29, 2018 Share Posted July 29, 2018 yes it is. However make good choices. In low tier trading it's very easy to end up with a very bad unusual. The more you wait the better but 17-18 keys is a good start. Good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I will recommend do not buy effects like Bubbling, Dead Presidents, Massed Flies, Nuts n Bolts, Overclocked, Memory Leak, Confetti, Codex (I would also include power surge and Electrostatic here but that depends on the hats) and I would also recommend against Unusual Taunts as all of the taunts started dropping in price like rocks Why? Because These effects that have a tiny visual impact in the game, Meaning from a distance you can barely see those effects and they can almost look like regular hats in-game - From my personal experience, these effects are disliked the most and hardest to sell. But if you do happen to find good deals on this effect feel free to go for it. Quote from the guide Read it fully Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keks Posted July 29, 2018 Share Posted July 29, 2018 well, for me i buy discounted unusuals and resell for full price, whether it's quicksell or not. It isn't so efficient, but it does make profit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cave Posted July 29, 2018 Share Posted July 29, 2018 One of my tactics is to set-up an automatic on your main and use that to automatically accept buy orders/sell orders. For that low of an amount, you should restrict yourself to low-tier unusuals. For example: I have made quite the profit from selling A Head Full of Hat Air's, they are quite good to start out with.
