The Grand Exchange lets one account buy 10,000 every 4 hours. That is a generous limit, so the market rather than the limit is usually what caps a position here.

Selling at 1,233 gp costs 24 gp in tax — 2%, rounded down, taken from the seller. A flip has to clear that before it makes anything, and it is the number most margin calculators leave out.
