Right, so some of you may want to use the Trade Currency to make some money to buy something nice for yourself, like a hat or a gear. Unless you've got a steady income from a game or some clothing, ROBUX may be hard to come by when you need it most, so this tutorial will show you how to make lots of money from the TC.
_WHAT YOU WILL NEED_
-The Trade Currency Page
-A Calculator
(Tip: Start off with a good sum of money, like 100R$. The less money you start with, the harder and longer it will take to earn the money you need. I for example gained 18R$ in an hour starting at 14R$, so get a good amount of money to start with)
_WHAT INFO YOU NEED_
-Spread: The spread is important when making money. If you have the right spread number, you will earn a LOT of robux. Generally to make a profit, you need the spread to be a POSITIVE number. The higher that number, the more profit you will get. Avoid trading when the spread is NEGATIVE, because you will lose money and have to earn it back again.
-BUX/TIX Rate: This is also an important ingredient in making money. If the BUX rate is lower than the TIX rate, the spread should be POSITIVE and you will earn money. A little bit more about this later on.
(Tip: Have your calculator ready in an easy to click spot, since being quick may be the difference between earning a lot and earning a little)
_THE METHOD_
This is the important bit, so lets go through it step by step. You'll need your calculators for this one!
(ROBUX METHOD)
If you're using robux, this is the method you should be using. When you get the tix from using this method, look below for the TIX method to earn the robux.
1) Lets use some numbers. I have 100R$ so we'll start with that.
2) Find out the TIX rate. If we have a rate of 14.756/15.995 and the TIX rate is on the right side, we would use 15.995 as our TIX rate. If the TIX rate is higher than the BUX rate, the spread will be positive and we will earn money.
3) Get the 100R$ and times it by the TIX rate of 15.995 using your calculator. You should get a big number, we'll find out what we get. The number we get is...1599.5. We can round this up or down, but since it's .5, we round up to 1600 TICKETS.
4) Click "Trade" and go into LIMIT ORDER. Put the right amount of BUX and say that you want 1600 TIX. ALWAYS MAKE SURE SPLIT TRADES IS TICKED.
5) Wait for the money. When you've got it, look to the next step.
(TICKETS METHOD)
Once you've got your tickets, lets do the reverse.
1) Now we've got 1600 tickets. We want to get that back into ROBUX.
2) Lets find out the BUX rate using the same 14.756/15.995 rate we used earlier. The BUX rate is on the left side, so we use 14.756. See where we're going with this?
3) This time, divide the 1600 TIX by the BUX rate which is 14.756. What we get is...108.4R$! Excellent, we've made 8R$ profit! Since it's .4, we round down this time.
4) Click "Trade", go to LIMIT ORDER and put the right amount of TIX and ask for 108 BUX. ALWAYS MAKE SURE SPLIT TRADES IS TICKED.
5) Wait for the profit.
(Tip: Double check all the numbers you type or click in. One mistake can set you back thousands of robux if you're not careful. It would be good for all the other investors, and bad for you)
_CONCLUSION_
When you finally get your profit, rinse and repeat the process until you have enough robux or tickets to get what you want. It's that simple. Thank you for reading, if you want more tips, look below.
_MORE TIPS_
(Tip: The bux/tix rate on here is an actual example of a rate on the TC. The spread was VERY high -1239- so the profit was also high. Don't expect it to be like that all the time, you may have to be patient before you get big profits.)
(Tip: For those of you trading a LOT of one currency, wait until the TC has slowed down a bit. Big amounts of money put into the TC at a peak time will cause the rates to go down and possibly ruin profits for the other traders.)
(Tip: If you start at a low amount of a currency, try trading when spreads are over 200, since anything below isn't worth your time and you will get back what you put in.) |

@Your
I don't care if people tl;dr, because that shows they don't have the attention spam or patience to be able to use the TC properly, meaning this is useless for them anyway. |

Is now a good time to trade? |

@Long
The trades change so fast, by the time I post this, it could change entirely. Just look at the spread, make sure it's POSITIVE. when it's positive, it's a decent time to trade. The higher, the better. |

@Sayo
That's unfortunate, since I believe it is the easiest way to earn money on ROBLOX besides getting the daily allowance. People need to know that it's not as complicated as it seems. |

@USMC
Thank you for the feedback. If I get enough comments and replies from people, I may make a 2nd thread for the more advanced stuff, but it would still be simple. |

I think I kind of forgot how to do rounding but is it by the tenths ? Or is it the first before the . or after the . ? |

@Super
If the decimal is .5 or above, you round up. If it's anything lower, round down. |

Just a note, I'm slowly but surely starting to get more and more profit. Every trade I do now has a constant profit of 1R$, becoming 2R$. With enough time and patience, you can get a lot of ROBUX. |
|
|
I remember when it was simple : 10 tix = 1 robux. |

Well, economies change rates of currency, it happens. |
