Frequently Asked Questions
How does the CardVault Price Ticker work?▼
The CardVault Price Ticker tracks 20 of the most iconic and actively-traded cards across baseball, basketball, football, and hockey. It displays real-time price changes, trading volume, and market sentiment indicators. Use it as a daily pulse check on the overall card market.
What cards are in the index?▼
The index includes blue-chip cards from each sport: 1952 Topps Mantle, 1986 Fleer Jordan, 2017 Prizm Mahomes, 1979 OPC Gretzky, and modern stars like Wembanyama, Ohtani, and Bedard. These are the cards that define the market direction.
Should I make buying decisions based on the ticker?▼
The ticker is best for awareness, not timing. Cards are illiquid — unlike stocks, you cannot buy and sell instantly. Use the ticker to understand market direction, then use our Price Watchlist tool to set alerts for specific cards you want to buy or sell at target prices.
What does market sentiment mean?▼
Market sentiment reflects the overall direction of the card market. BULLISH means more cards are gaining value than losing. BEARISH means the opposite. The average change across all 20 tracked cards determines the sentiment. A market moving +2% average is strongly bullish.
