Frequently Asked Questions
What are Breaking News Triggers?
Breaking News Triggers are real-time alerts about significant events in the card collecting market. They cover six categories: price spikes (cards gaining value rapidly), record sales (new price records at auction), grading news (updates from PSA, BGS, CGC, SGC), market movers (broader market trends), rookie watch (trending rookie cards), and new set releases.
How often are alerts updated?
Alerts are generated throughout the day based on market activity. The feed refreshes automatically every 5 minutes. Critical alerts (major price spikes over 35% and high-value record sales) are flagged prominently so you never miss significant market moves.
What do the severity levels mean?
Critical alerts represent major market events — price spikes over 35%, record sales above $1,000, or breaking grading company news. High severity covers notable price movements (25-35%) and significant sales. Medium severity includes smaller price changes, routine grading updates, and set release announcements.
Can I filter alerts by sport or type?
Yes. Use the type buttons at the top to filter by alert category (price spikes, record sales, etc.). Use the dropdown filters to narrow by sport (baseball, basketball, football, hockey) and severity level. Your filter preferences are saved in your browser.
How do price spike alerts work?
Price spike alerts trigger when a card shows a significant percentage increase in recent sales or asking prices compared to its previous value. Each alert includes the percentage change, new estimated price, and the likely reason for the movement (game performance, trade news, award buzz, etc.).
