Ignoring anyone is a mistake. You might miss something viral to your cause.
Roll what other people are not rolling.
I try to look for a reward ratio of around 1200 inf/ticket as a low point. Anything much lower then this is not worth it.
To get a big ticket item from the gold roll, you have ~4% chance to get a +Regen/+Recover/+Recharge recipe at lvl40-44. Aside from that, there are not a lot of high demand recipes, and the market seems to be flooded with a lot of them, including quite a few good ones like the quad attribute IOs. Also with my ratio, each gold roll must sell on average for 4.6 mil, but that doesn't happen.
I personally like Silver. Silver has a lot of recipes that are simply slotted by almost every character in the game. It has its share of undesirables, but you can expect an in-demand recipe with only a couple rolls. On average, they would need to all sell for 702k inf, which sometimes happens.
If you want more predictable 'per ticket' influence, salvage can be great.
Rare is rarely worth it considering how many tickets they cost. Unless I know I can sell them for ~800k each, I don't bother.
High lvl Uncommon can sell for 100k each at times. With their cost, selling for 96k each meets my requirements.
Selling common salvage has got some great results, but requires micro transactions. They only need to sell on average for 9600 to meet my requirement, and may sell for double or triple that. Unfortunately, due to the random roll, you could end up with salvage worth its vendor trash value (250).

Oh, and the best 'no brains' transaction is to sell common recipes to the vendor. ~464 inf/ticket every time at lvl 50. 9999 tickets would be worth 4.6mil, which is often better then doing a couple gold rolls.

Which type of recipe roll tends to yield the most influence per ticket? I know, the markets can vary a lot, but I'm just looking for a general rule of thumb. (Oh, and if it varies by level, a level based answer would be good)
