Why Nightly Prices Beat Live Tickers for Collectors
Live tickers optimize for traders. Collectors need a trustworthy close, and there is a reason ours lands at night.
A live price feels more honest than a nightly one until you watch a thin market print three fake swings in an afternoon off two sales and a delisting. Card markets are not equities; most cards trade a handful of times a day, and intraday noise is mostly noise.
A nightly close smooths the artifacts without hiding the trend, which is why Kiri charts one dependable number per day and saves the drama for cards that actually earn it.
