Guild Wars 2

Hello all, I have been getting into trading more and more in Guild Wars 2 and really wanted more information when deciding what to buy/sell and couldn’t find a source with level of information that I wanted so I made one!

I have a big focus on data and feel like looking at single items doesn’t give enough information, forests and the trees issue all over again. So I have 16 markets where I track all item within them and present them like stocks almost this includes everything from buffs to tier 6 salvageable items and one index which covers the entire market.

I wrote a little about how to interpret the graphs here, http://www.gw2trends.com/#/faq. But if that’s not enough and it will not be I would recommend looking at this OHLC Tutorial(http://www.finvids.com/Chart-Pattern) on patterns to look for.

This project was started late October 2015 and was alot of fun to make. Right now the hardware is the only limiting factor in terms of performance but it polls all items every 5 minutes and rollups data daily.

Please check it out, recommend features you’d like to see, and report any bugs that you find!

Something interesting today is T1/T2/T3 salvage markets are really moving 10%+ today alone!

Hug shift in upgrade components, buys up ~30%, sells down ~30%. This could be great opening in a while when the market readjusts

2000 gold for ascended materials? what the hell is any of this data?

Needs a link the the “basket” being used for each of the categories. Just to be clear.

Sorry if the data seems confusing but markets are aggregates, they are the sum of all items that match certain filters. This is used to see group of items that potentially move together so that if you see movement you can look at items you want to buy/sell in and plan for rise/fall.

The complicated graphs are called OHLC charts and help you see the daily movement, since GW2 is a global market this is important ad the population shifts hourly and the potential to flip some items increases.

I am still rolling out new features to the site as its currently really basic but I figured the new perspective would be interesting to the community. Please let me what questions you have around markets that are not answered in FAQ so I can better explain to others.
