Heating up

Singles that rose in every snapshot this week — no down days. Streaks are persistence, not spikes.

What stands out

  • The 5 largest gains added $986.91 combined, against $4,547.17 shed by the 5 largest falls — the selling outweighed the buying at the top.
  • ME: 30th Celebration appears 3 times among the movers — worth watching as a set, not just a single.
  • 1 of the moves happened in played grades. Grades move independently (measured correlation ~0), so these say nothing about Near Mint copies of the same singles.
  • 1 of the movers came from the Japanese market.
  • 5 singles rose without one down day this week — see Heating up below.
  • Gardevoir, Rayquaza, Latios (Delta Species), Shining Charizard, Mew ex - 158/128, Mewtwo ex - 157/128, Gengar (5), Mega Rayquaza ex - 113/076 are repeat appearances from the previous edition — sustained movement is a stronger signal than a one-day spike.

Methodology & attribution

Prices are market prices — a marketplace-published figure averaged across recent completed sales for each product and condition. Figures reflect the window stated above. Movers are ranked by absolute dollar change, so every priced single qualifies without a minimum price.

Condition grades are tracked separately and move independently: measured across roughly 400,000 paired observations, the day-over-day correlation between Near Mint and Lightly Played returns is approximately zero. A mover in one grade says nothing about the others, so each row names its grade.
