| Trade Ratios: | |||
| Resources | Min Ratio | Max Ratio | (Merchant Ratio) |
| Ore » Hydrogen | 2 : 1 | 3 : 1 | 2.5:1 |
| Ore » Crystal | 1.5 : 1 | 2 : 1 | 1.667:1 |
| Crystal » Hydrogen | 1 : 1 | 2 : 1 | 1.5:1 |
You can trade resources with any player, regardless of rank. To trade, locate the traders planet in the galaxy screen, and click the 
button on their planet row (in the same group as Attack, Espionage, Transport, etc). When you select the amount you want to trade, you will notice the number is red. In order to initiate a trade, you must select an appropriate amount of cargo ships, and also the appropriate amount of resources you want to receive in the transaction (see Trade Ratios chart at right).
Once you have confirmed the trade, a request will be sent to the other player, who will then need to select enough cargo ships to send their resources.
Can someone please sate if the time shown for a trade is the usual "time to get there" for fleet do a thing (like a harvest, that will show 1 hour, but take 2 to get home) meaning a trade that shows 1 hour will take two to actually complete?
