How to set up Auto-trade in Path of Exile 2

Auto-trade is live in Path of Exile 2, which is part of the third major update of the game’s early access, and it allows you to mediate the purchase and sale of different items.

The latest addition, already announced in advance, is perfect for those approaching the endgame (of what’s available in the current build). It saves you from micromanaging your purchases and sales, but you’ll have to clear a fair bit of early-game content to use the system.

How to enable Auto-trade in Path of Exile 2?

You must appoint Ange as a Merchant NPC to enable this unique system. You’ll have to complete the Hostile Takeover quest to do that task. Completing this quest allows you to get Ange as the Merchant NPC, who then acts as your mediator for establishing and completing all automatic trades.

How to use Auto-trade in Path of Exile 2?

Before the update arrived, we had to trade using the Premium tabs. The Premium tabs have now been converted to Merchant tabs (if you owned them before the update and acquired them via microtransactions). You can also purchase more Merchant tabs from the shop via microtransactions.

First, select an item or items that you want to sell. Go to Ange, which will allow you to trade items or exchange currency. Choose the items you wish to trade, and then place the goods in her inventory. Next, set the price you expect to receive from your items, and Ange will automatically list them on the servers.

Now wait for the sale to complete, and you’ll get a notification when it does. Return to Ange, and you’ll get your currency from her. You’ll need at least one Merchant tab to use the system (this includes any Premium tabs that have been converted).

Purchasing the items remains similar, as you scout them on the website. Instead of Whisper, you’ll get a Secure Item option. Click on it, and you’ll be taken to the seller’s hideout. Pay the correct amount, and complete the trade to add the item to your tab.
