In-Game Interface
When you join Hypixel Skyblock, BFM's overlay will appear showing available flips. The interface displays:
- Item Name: The bazaar item to flip
- Buy Price: The price to purchase at (instant buy from sell orders)
- Sell Price: The price to sell at (instant sell to buy orders)
- Profit: Expected profit per unit (after 1.25% tax)
- Success Rate: AI-predicted likelihood of the flip completing successfully
- Volume: Number of units available to flip
How to Execute a Flip
1
Select a Flip
Review the list and choose a flip that meets your criteria. Higher success rates are safer but often have lower profits.
2
Open the Bazaar
Type /bz in chat or visit the Bazaar NPC on your Skyblock island.
3
Buy the Item
Search for the item in the bazaar and place a buy order at the displayed buy price. You can instant-buy by clicking "Buy Instantly" or place a buy order and wait for it to fill.
4
Sell the Item
Once your buy order fills, immediately sell the item at the displayed sell price. Use "Sell Instantly" for immediate execution.
â ī¸ Market Volatility Warning
Bazaar prices change constantly. A flip that was profitable 15 seconds ago may no longer be profitable now. Always verify prices before committing large amounts of coins!
Understanding Success Rates
BFM's AI predicts flip success based on:
- Historical price stability: Items with stable prices have higher success rates
- Market volume: High-volume items are more likely to complete quickly
- Time of day: Flips during peak hours have higher success rates
- Item category: Some item types are inherently more volatile
| Success Rate |
Risk Level |
Recommendation |
| 90-100% |
Very Low |
Safe for large investments |
| 70-89% |
Low |
Good for regular flipping |
| 50-69% |
Medium |
Use caution, verify prices |
| Below 50% |
High |
Not recommended for beginners |
6. Flipping Strategies
Strategy 1: Conservative Flipping
Best for: Beginners, small budgets
- Focus on flips with 80%+ success rate
- Use smaller budget limits (1M - 5M per flip)
- Stick to high-volume items (Enchanted Sugar Cane, Enchanted Iron, etc.)
- Aim for consistent 50k - 200k profits per flip
Strategy 2: High-Volume Flipping
Best for: Active players, medium budgets
- Set min profit to 100k - 500k
- Execute 10-20 flips per hour during peak times
- Use Discord notifications to catch opportunities quickly
- Diversify across multiple item categories
Strategy 3: High-Risk, High-Reward
Best for: Experienced flippers, large budgets
- Target flips with 1M+ profit potential
- Accept lower success rates (50-70%)
- Invest in volatile items during market swings
- Monitor market closely and act fast
đĄ Pro Tips
- Peak Hours: Flip during peak hours (2pm - 10pm EST) for higher success rates
- Events: Avoid flipping during Hypixel events (Jerry Mayor, etc.) when markets are volatile
- Diversify: Don't put all your coins in one flip - spread risk across multiple items
- Tax Awareness: Remember the 1.25% bazaar tax eats into profits on both buy and sell
- Patience: Sometimes waiting for a buy order to fill is more profitable than instant buying
