Nice tradecircle ^^ I never used that trade circle in later versions. (only in 8.04 I used metal and gold mine in addition)
The reason I only use Market->Fountain->Lumbermill (as dark force trader) is that I often then have turbospeed, troop command and orbital control in inventory as only got space for 3 different goods...
But including gold mine into the trade circle is not a bad idea.

Trading is quite simple.
When you change to trader, you change into trade zeppelin. Also you notice you have 10 wood. Each trade good cost 10 wood. Then you go to these "gold mines" on the minimap, which is trade posts. Then you use your trade skill to pick up the trade good, you lumber amount reduces -10 wood. Now you returns back to the trade master and use your trade skill to deliver the good. Now you increase the lumber amount to 11 (or 12-13 if you went far away)... when you do this many times back and fourth, your wood amount will reach 20 wood, which means you can pick up 2 trade goods before you must return back to the trader with your cargo.
If you die, don't worry, you get back your previous lumber amount.
