I read somewhere that commodity prices rise to about 2 gold later in server life, and on server 79 prices have ranged from 0.05 for food and stone to 0.35 for iron and lumber.
I've also noticed that the largest demand-supply gaps tend to be for wood and food, I'm guessing since people tend to buy in a hurry when needed in battle so creating opportunities for traders.
Last but not least, daily trends such as wars creating price hikes in food and iron, and end-of-day wall building leading to evening rises in the price of stone.
But these are just from personal observations rather than methodical compilations - and only at the beginning of one server's lifetime. I tried searching but didn't come up with anything at all - I was wondering if there are any threads I've missed and/or if anyone can bring to light some more insightful price trend observations which would help with short/medium/long term strategy.
Regards
