Almost every single patch brings with it new content, and this usually means new gear and more people coming back from time away from the game. For example, in patch 4.1, we had two new 5-mans added. A bunch of new gear was equipped by a bunch of existing and new players, and all this gear has to be gemmed, enchanted, and otherwise improved. All this adds up to an increase in demand for a variety of products. The more you know about patch 4.2, the better you can profit and benefit from it.
One of the first things that feel the supply pinch in a new patch is enchanting mats. New gear gets enchanted, and now that there's a cheap and plentiful supply of Maelstrom Crystals in the new 5-mans, people are starting to enchant their gear with the best-in-slot options. Enchanting mats are such a high-volume market that the prices are quite stable, unlikely to swing greatly from day to day. If you don't have the desire or ability to actually make mats, you can participate in the patch wow gold http://www.wowwowgold.com rush by buying them when they're cheap and holding them until the patch.
The second thing is Jewelcrafters, it also benefit on patch week. All the new gear coming into the market being enchanted is likely also being gemmed, and that means demand for cut and uncut gems will skyrocket. As with enchanting mats, you can either produce more in anticipation or buy some expecting to resell them.
If you can't cut gems, I'd stick to the obvious high sellers and avoid the niche cuts, even when they seem dirt cheap. If you can cut gems, just stock up on uncut, but do your best to get reds more than anything else.
There's a wide variety of items that increase in demand when the patch hits. Leatherworking, blacksmithing, tailoring, and engineering all have item enhancements they can sell. Typically, these share mats with other items, though, and that means that the impact on the buy wow gold side like www.mmocarts.com will be muted. Still, there will be an increase in demand, so making (or buying) a few extra might be worth it.
In addition to demand for item enhancements, some patches will also bring new craftable gear. The 4.2 datamining has shown tons of new PvP and PvE craftables for quite a few professions, and these will likely fly off the AH shelves for the first few weeks as people fill in their missing slots.
Lastly, when a patch brings class changes, there are often changes to glyphs that could result in a run on one or another glyph. If you're a scribe, follow the patch notes and see if any of them will likely result in a demand surge for a glyph, and be prepared to supply it.
