Market
Prices tell you what. We tell you why.
A price with no context is a guess. ManaLotus reads the Magic market through three signals so you know whether a card is climbing, spiking, or riding the metagame, and what to do about it.
The Market is free and public. No account needed to read it.
Climbing right now
What's climbing?
Trend: the biggest sustained price gainers across every set
Three signals
One market, read three ways
Drift, a spike, and a metagame shift are three different stories that a single price number flattens into one. We keep them apart.
Is it climbing?
The sustained direction of a single printing's price. The cards quietly grinding up or down, before anyone is talking about them.
Is it spiking now?
A fast jump away from a printing's own trend, measured against its usual volatility. The early tell that something is happening right now.
Is the format moving it?
Agreement across a card's printings reads as a metagame shift, per format. Demand you can see before the price fully catches up.
Expected value
Know what a box is really worth before you crack it
Sealed product expected value done properly: the sell-side math, not a naive sum of singles. Fees, the realistic floor you'd actually get, and whether the box beats its own price. The full figures are a paid feature, $9.99 a month.
- Net of marketplace and payment fees, not gross
- A coverage verdict: does the expected value clear the box price?
- Ranked across the whole sealed catalog
