I need Trade help

No, you've been right. Click on a sea region and then press V and all sea regions you've placed ships in are highlighted.
I didn't knew this before - nice feature, thanks Tricky Lady.

It is the "V" button, but I think that feature was introduced in the first patch. If you don't have the patch, find it here:

you don't even need to click on sea zone first

I check before end of each turn using shift and v keys to see no rebellions and trade lanes open.

I get 60k income and around 50k+ profit a year.

antioch, venice, const. etc. can generate 5-6k apiece when upgraded and often even higher.

be careful about killing off factions that can be potential trade partners though.

I have MTW V1.00 and I am downloading the patch now... thanks for the heads up about the patch. That could be an issue because the sea regions never light up for me.... and I had heard of people making 2 to 7k on one countries trade yet all I was using was very high taxes and it made it so I couldn't hardly upgrade much less win the game. Seeing all these other countries build up so huge I thought wow is the AI side that favored?... Thanks for the help and I will apply the patch and see if that helps and if I have any more questions I'll post. Thanks
