Using money to make money.
The Monetary Market is easy to get into with very little starting cash required. If you lack the funds for a company this is a good way to go instead.
The primary method is to sell both times. Gold for Currency, Currency for Gold.
Your profit derives from the difference or spread, between the two rates.
An example would be posting:
10
sold at a rate of 30 
then the currency received at:
300
sold at a rate of 0.035
Your profit would be: 0.5
A couple other methods are the Buy and Wait, or the Sell and Wait.
For the first, you buy hoping that the value later increases. For the latter, you sell hoping that the value later falls.
Either of these can be profitable, but entirely possible the market will move against you.
Arbitrage
Basically Arbitrage is Free Money. Typically it is a result of someone posting an offer lower than what I like to call the Equilibrium Rate.
Equilibrium Rate = (1/Lowest Opposite Exchange Rate)Example:0.04
and 25
You purchase the Undervalued Asset and then immediately offload it. Obviously you can also sell it like normal for more profit, but the crucial point of Arbitrage is that you can make an immediate profit if you so desire.
I really do encourage everyone to at least take a look at playing the markets. Your bank account will appreciate it and the country benefits by having a low spread between the exchange rates.

May the rates be ever in your favor,

About the game:
USA as a world power? In E-Sim it is possible!
In E-Sim we have a huge, living world, which is a mirror copy of the Earth. Well, maybe not completely mirrored, because the balance of power in this virtual world looks a bit different than in real life. In E-Sim, USA does not have to be a world superpower, It can be efficiently managed as a much smaller country that has entrepreneurial citizens that support it's foundation. Everything depends on the players themselves and how they decide to shape the political map of the game.
Work for the good of your country and see it rise to an empire.
Activities in this game are divided into several modules. First is the economy as a citizen in a country of your choice you must work to earn money, which you will get to spend for example, on food or purchase of weapons which are critical for your progress as a fighter. You will work in either private companies which are owned by players or government companies which are owned by the state. After progressing in the game you will finally get the opportunity to set up your own business and hire other players. If it prospers, we can even change it into a joint-stock company and enter the stock market and get even more money in this way.
In E-Sim, international wars are nothing out of the ordinary.
Become an influential politician.
The second module is a politics. Just like in real life politics in E-Sim are an extremely powerful tool that can be used for your own purposes. From time to time there are elections in the game in which you will not only vote, but also have the ability to run for the head of the party you're in. You can also apply for congress, where once elected you will be given the right to vote on laws proposed by your fellow congress members or your president and propose laws yourself. Voting on laws is important for your country as it can shape the lives of those around you. You can also try to become the head of a given party, and even take part in presidential elections and decide on the shape of the foreign policy of a given state (for example, who to declare war on). Career in politics is obviously not easy and in order to succeed in it, you have to have a good plan and compete for the votes of voters.
You can go bankrupt or become a rich man while playing the stock market.
The international war.
The last and probably the most important module is military. In E-Sim, countries are constantly fighting each other for control over territories which in return grant them access to more valuable raw materials. For this purpose, they form alliances, they fight international wars, but they also have to deal with, for example, uprisings in conquered countries or civil wars, which may explode on their territory. You can also take part in these clashes, although you are also given the opportunity to lead a life as a pacifist who focuses on other activities in the game (for example, running a successful newspaper or selling products).
At the auction you can sell or buy your dream inventory.
E-Sim is a unique browser game. It's creators ensured realistic representation of the mechanisms present in the real world and gave all power to the players who shape the image of the virtual Earth according to their own. So come and join them and help your country achieve its full potential.
