# Trading

![Buy low, sell high](/files/Qs5mMofz35W5z4jMGRxY)

Observing the changes in the pricing and availability of goods, you will find that the prices of all goods fluctuate due to changing supply and demand, whether they are rare metals or spacecraft, and everything in between.

Even in these troubled times, lucrative opportunities are everywhere. Try to be the first in transporting medications to a planet with a pandemic erupting, you will surely see handsome profits.

In the EFAS universe, it is more than possible to accumulate great wealth through peaceful means. But of course, watch out for pirates and hostile faction fleets on your cargo runs.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://efas.gitbook.io/whitepaper/the-journey/trading.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
