flip
Buying low and selling high fast on the Grand Exchange for quick profit.
Definitions
Setting a buy order low and a sell order high on the same item, pocketing the gap. It's quick — often resolved in minutes — and it's how players make gold without leaving the GE.
The profit comes from the spread between pending buy and sell orders, not from waiting for the price to move. Pure market arbitrage.

People Also Ask
Is flipping the same as merching?
Same idea — buy low, sell high — but flipping is short-term off the immediate margin, while merching holds items longer for a bigger price swing.
