Competitive position

The competitive position report on your Today tab answers a simple question: am I priced right? It compares your current listed price on every card against your current pricing strategy, then sorts your inventory into four groups. That means the report follows the price source you chose in Settings > Pricing. If your strategy is based on TCGplayer Market Price, the report compares against market. If you switch to TCGplayer Low, Low + Shipping, or Direct Low, the report updates to that source. Your markup, hard floor, shipping adder, and lowest-listing awareness are included in the target when they apply.

​

The four groups

At or Below Target: Your price is at or below your strategy target. You’re priced where your rules want you to be, or better. The dollar figure shows how much you’re sitting under target across all copies. Within $0.50: You’re close. These cards are priced just slightly above target. Most buyers won’t notice the difference, and your condition or seller rating might win the sale anyway. Slightly Above: You’re above target, but less than 20%. Worth keeping an eye on, but probably not urgent. 20%+ Above: At least 20% more than target. The dollar figure here is what’s at risk, the total amount you’re over across all copies. Look at these first.

How to use it

The stacked bar at the top shows the breakdown at a glance. Green is good, red means there’s something to look at. Click any group to expand a table of the specific cards. The table shows your price, the strategy target, and the difference in both dollars and percent. Cards in the 20%+ group are sorted worst first.

​

Dollar exposure

Each group shows a dollar total so you can see what actually matters. Having 3 cards 20% above is different when they’re $0.50 cards versus$50 cards. The exposure number tells you which group is worth your time.

​

Filtering

The report respects the product line filter in the dashboard header. Switch to a specific game or All Games to see your position for that scope. The heading tells you which game scope is being compared.

​

Where the data comes from

The prices come from your most recent sync or CSV upload. “Your price” is tcg_marketplace_price, which is what you’re currently listed at. The comparison price comes from your selected price source, such as tcg_market_price, tcg_low_price, tcg_low_price_with_shipping, or tcg_direct_low, then Hoard applies your strategy settings to calculate the target. Cards where either price is missing or zero are excluded.
