Ok, I'm a new player, but I am already trying to broker on the market. The current limit is new players cannot buy or sell for +- 15% of the average price for the said resource. While this might normally be good, in cases like today where the oil can be bought for 30% less than the buy price this effectively stops new players from brokering. I honestly find it sooooo annoying when a potential for great profit comes along and I put in my order only to be told I'm to new to take part :/
I don't even know how long this 'new player' stats lasts, but please, please. If you don't want to remove the filters, at least make them change from +- 15% of the average price into +- 15% of the top buy price or the bottom selling price depending on the action the player is taking. This still stops crazy 1,000,000 for 1 food trades, but also allows new players to trade competitively.
Please fix this, I like making money from brokering and whenever this happens I just get really annoyed.
