Q:

Crafters should get money or at least not lose much when selling via TP.

I have reached level 25 , however there are not any recipes to get or discover atm .

All items that get me some profit are grey ( won’t get exp by crafting them ).

The others ( orange , yellow ore blue ) will cost me more than their profit.

What should I do ?

It’s impossible you have a grey list struck. Check better, talk with merch about recipes, you will figure out whats wrong

You’re doing it wrong. Discover some items. Insignia + two partials = item.

Will lose much money by this way !!!

I have checked all level 25 items and I found out that their cost is much higher than their profit > check >> http://www.gw2db.com/recipes as the profit is always in minus ( this applies to all disciplines ) , what should i do ( I wanna make some money in TP or even equal ).

If you think you can make any money with low level(or any level Fine or Masterwork) crafted items then we have some very bad news for you …

Low level crafting is a complete moneysink. Consider it as paying gold for xp, because that’s all you really get in return aside from a few weapons/armors that will be obsolete quickly from monster drops.

It isn’t a sink. A gold sink is when you give money to an NPC and it disappears from the game forever. This money goes to players… but yes. Understand that at low levels, you’re basically paying for skill points. And there’s enough crafters and competing goods in the game that, even for exotics, profits are very, very modest, if they’re even there.

Crafting is basically for vanity, for achievements, and for buying XP. It isn’t unfortunately, a source of wealth.

In this game you wont make gold via crafting- at least not enough to make it worth effort. Best using crafting is craft items for yourself since it can be cheaper than buying in TP (like 30-60s per trinket/armor exotic), leveling char (~12 lvl per craft 400) or making the cheapest exotic to use in Mystic Toilet and hope to make precursor.

GW2 is most greedy MMO in rewards ever becasue you have to keepi thinking about buying gems ^^. Simple buisness

Spools of thread, lumps of tin and coal, runes of holding, etc. There is an element of gold sink to crafting.

Ah yes, true. And there is also, of course, the trading post fees for selling the items.
