Here are the big money makers for JC currently:
1) Buying uncommon (green) northrend gems and eternal/crystallized earth and making the level 70 rings/necks from Huge Citrine, Bloodstone, Sun Crystal, and Chalcedony. They vendor for 3.14 gold or make 2 Infinite dusts. The gems are on the AH for less than 1g each, and if you can get Eternal earths for 5g or less, you'll make at least 5g profit per earth
2) Lich King metas. Check your server, but some LK metas still sell well because they can be cheaper than the shadowspirit gems.
3) Nightstone. They're finally coming down in price, but keep a stock of Nightstone, Jasper, and Zephyrite. Put them on the AH when the JC daily requires the gem.
4) Hessonite rings and Alicite Pendants. This depends on their price. On Argent Dawn, they're usually 11-12g each, so 24g (ish) per ring. If it is green, DE will probably break you even, or give you a small profit. Any blue procs will still sell for decent gold, so a heavy market will move them for 150-200g, but even if you just get 100g per blue, you'll do well.
5) Blue Cata gems... these vary a LOT and depend on your server. Most servers, they're starting to look like what green gems were a month ago (price-wise). Right now Inferno Rubies are okay, the rest can be meh. Check what cuts are selling well. I do the best profit % with Mystic Amberjewels.
Then there's the prospecting. Elementium will probably do better than Pyrite, but that depends on your server's price on Volatile Earth and the difference in price of elementium vs pyrite. Pyrite Ore gives you earths in addition to the gems.
Don't make a Fire Prism until epic gems are introduced, IMO.

Its true that the Fire Prism's may not be worth it. But you do get a chance for a C. Eye just like we did with dragon eye's in wrath.
I make enough profit off selling the Rare gems that I don't have to sell the common gems. So I tend to use those for the daily cd/JC Daily days. Zeph. Gems hardly ever go for more then 15g even on there daily day. However Nightstone/Jasper go for 50-75g each on there given days.
Sure the Wrath Epic Rings aren't worth it to make. But are the Cat. Rare Rings much better? They sell for between 1-2k on my server and the mats along are worth more then that.
@Op with you having Wrath only check the Epic Gem Market. Those gems are used in the 60-80 level range for sockets due to the cat gems having a level requirement. Your standard Strenght,Agility,and Intell. Cuts should be good sellers.
