>I have a few questions about the Courier bot, First can it be done with only an alpha if my goal is just to get +9 for trading?
Yes, but alfas may run 1-3 agents only after eve update. I would recommend to reach max 8 standing then switch to trader.
>Second is there a guide that directly tells me which missions to do before I can just let it go by itself. Basically a setup guide. Thanks!
Copy settings from all pictures from the
manual. They are optimized for Jita trader. You will need to place ore (Veldspar, Scordite, Omber, Kernite) to home station and switch agent levels when necessary.
