I’ve heard trade-ups can be profitable if you know what you’re doing, but I don’t understand how to calculate the odds. Any tips?

Let me try to find something for you that actually makes the odds easier to understand. I remember struggling with this myself when I first got into trade-ups. It’s not as straightforward as it looks, but once you get the logic behind it, it starts making more sense. Give me a bit of time — I’ll look around and see if I can dig up something useful that breaks it down clearly.

Yeah, trade-ups can actually make a profit, but only if you calculate everything carefully. The key is understanding how the odds work for getting a specific skin. For example, if your trade-up includes 5 skins from one collection and 5 from another, then you’ve got a 50% chance for each collection. I usually list all possible outcomes first and figure out which ones are worth it. That’s really the only way to make it work without losing value.

I went into trade-ups thinking it was just about luck, but I lost more than I gained at first. I didn’t want to give up, so I started looking into how the process really works. While researching float averages and why some outcomes felt off, I stumbled on https://dmarket.com/cs2-wiki/. It broke down the numbers behind trade-ups, especially how float values are averaged across inputs. Since reading it, I’ve stopped guessing and started planning—way better results, and I’m not just wasting cheap skins anymore.
