on your island
The point of the trade calculator isn't so much to determine what you should sell for, but to see at a glance what the current (average) price of a resource is. Since the ratios are recalculated several times per day, this helps people to decide what they want to pay, and if someone is overcharging. The decision is up to them. As far as my trying to benefit from the calculator in any way, I've actually designed it to exclude my own trades so that I won't be influencing the numbers in any way.
As for selling, it ALSO can be useful to see if you care charging too little for an item. I will soon be adding a "stock ticker" to the system that will show the current ratios compared with the ratios from the previous day so we can see if values are going up or down. --Draxxon (creator of the trade calculator)
