Mineral trade stock market

[Trollcrates]

like we have an option to buy and sell minerals when needet but i was thinking to bring this to a new level to have some sort of rises and falldows in prices according to sales and buyouts of certain mineral (iam thinking globaly like all players by their sells and buys influence the price for everyone), by proper investment you could make some extra buck and you could need some mineral and it would be currently for lower price it could be very happy moment, there could be even stock crash and certain mineral could be very cheap

basicaly just bring some life in mineral trading

You think this is a good idea until someone decides to cheat in billions of minerals to flood the market. They probably don't even need to cheat for it, a lot of long time players have huge stockpiles of minerals and credits.

Gambling! That's what's been missing!

I think people don't trade minerals often enough for this to function. implementing this is too much work for no gameplay improvement if you ask me.

Market events could be better. Filled with funny story about it like the devs use to it. Community goals are way less risky than a player controled market in my opinion (eve online come to my mind)
