Your thoughts on the best way to utilize the psychic probe. Has it become obsolete with the haggle macro in most helpers? Does anyone even use this anymore?

Good for determining the best price a port will buy/sell for before ptrading. Pick the ports that sell for the lowest and buy for the highest, making each turn as profitable as possible.

Other than that, I personally don't have any use for them.

Though some people "feel" they help alot, I think its more work then they are worth. If you really want to try, pay attention and find your self a few good ports (ones in good locationa nd offer the highest profit), to trade at, upgrade them and just stay there, safe effective way of making money and staying outta trouble.... of course untill the ports run outta product, then again that depends on settings.

I will respect you in the morning but I won't wake up till noon.

Basically they can be used to tune a _good_ (I'm not aware of a helper with a haggle I'd consider good) haggle routine more quickly. That being said, you're talking about earning like 1-2% more cash (and a similar amount of extra xp) in a day by using this plus a very complicated haggle script. [so basically its a waste of time]
