Zerosiini Posted November 14, 2019 Share Posted November 14, 2019 Hey all! I've just gotten back to trading after a break of about 3 years. I never really got deep into it, but anyway... I often have trouble determining the price of an unusual, especially after the crate depression. Many unusuals priced even 15 keys apart have their highest buy orders at the same price, which always makes me feel like I'm just wasting my time doing 1 for 1's. All I'm basically asking is: Generally, how strongly correlated are the highest buy orders for an unusual and it's actual value? Are they just unreliable lowballs from bots and cheapskates or should I be paying a lot of attention to them when trading? Thank you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparkii Posted November 14, 2019 Share Posted November 14, 2019 There are a ton of factors at work. The only time you should observe buy orders in a 1f1 is if you have higher buy orders, you can use it as a bargaining chip. It does not reflect the actual demand of the hat as it's by, well, bots.

dtn Posted November 14, 2019 Share Posted November 14, 2019 the crate depression messed up with buy orders/item liquidity. the buyers are now afraid and don't want to take the risks they used to take before the bug (like paying properly) buy orders are now a joke after the crate depression Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wsdea Posted November 14, 2019 Share Posted November 14, 2019 Buy orders are strongly correlated with the "actual value" of the hat, unlike many bp.tf suggested prices. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
