Demand, trend & item stats
Value and RAP tell you how much. Demand and Trend tell you how healthy an item is. Read them together and you'll trade a lot smarter.
Demand
Demand is how many people actually want the item:
| Demand | What it means |
|---|---|
| Amazing | Everyone wants it. Trades fast. |
| High | Strong interest. Easy to trade. |
| Normal | Steady, average interest. |
| Low | Harder to move. |
| Terrible | Very few want it. Expect to wait or overpay to offload. |
| N/A | Not rated. |
High demand items are liquid, easy to trade at value. Low demand items can be worth a lot on paper but tough to actually trade.
Trend
Trend is the direction the item's value is moving:
| Trend | What it means |
|---|---|
| Raising | Value is climbing. |
| Stable | Holding steady. |
| Lowering | Value is falling. |
| Fluctuating | Bouncing up and down. |
| Unstable | Unpredictable. Trade with care. |
| Unassigned | No trend set. |
Other stats
- Rarity: how scarce the item is within the game.
- Copies: roughly how many exist (shown for some games). Fewer copies often means more scarcity value.
- Tradeable: whether the item can be traded at all. Untradeable items may still be listed for reference.
- Type or category: helps you filter and compare like-for-like.
Putting it together
- Great hold: High or Amazing demand with a Raising or Stable trend.
- Be selective: Normal demand with a Fluctuating trend. Fine, but time it.
- Risky: Low or Terrible demand, or a Lowering or Unstable trend. You may struggle to trade it later.
