Well chadz said that it works based on distance. So I'm guessing a good's worth grows exponentially the farther away you are from the place they were bought. Ideally a really profitable caravan would make a constant complete round trip around the map in a circle buying/selling goods at opposite points on the diameter of that circle. This would have to be modified according to geography, trade deals, enemy territory, etc.. but the basic idea would be the same.

Yeah and even buying for a high price would gain you profit when u sell at a massive distance bonus.

So...could anybody tell me what the orange dots and green dots signify? I'm assuming it's some special activity.

I love how most EU players insert an imaginary "f" into my name: Winterfly.

Orange and green dots? Are you talking about players in their faction colours or something on the map? Take a screen.
This game isn't about being skillful as much as its about saying things in general chat that enrage people who then go to murder you but in their rage they make dumb mistakes which gets them killed.

What do you want us to say? "Do this, do that!". Here's a hint. Do what you want to do. Go to a fief, trade shit, attack people for their moneyz, sell soldiers, go on a long walk at the beach. This is strat. Do what you want. Just remember there are others that do what they want too.
