Step 1: Open the all-games view
Go to tryhoard.com/market. The page ranks every game Hoard tracks by market value and charts the top few priced games over the window you select. Use this view to see which games are moving.Step 2: Open a game
Select a game, or go to/market/pokemon directly.
The game page lists that game’s sets by market value with their movement, and charts several sets by default.
Look for sets moving differently from the rest of the game.
Step 3: Open the set
Select the set. The page has two parts to read separately. The price history shows whether the current value is a high, a low, or mid-range. A set up 15% this month that was up 40% two months ago is in a different position than one making a new high. The card roster, ranked by price, shows whether the set’s value sits in a few chase cards or spreads across many. This affects whether singles or sealed product is the better buy.Step 4: Compare against other sets
Open/market/compare, search for your set, and add two or three others. You can chart up to eight scopes.
Compare the same set’s Singles and Sealed views. When sealed climbs and singles stay flat, the market is pricing unopened product rather than demand for the cards.
Step 5: Check your existing position
Return to the set page while signed in. The page shows how many copies you hold, across how many distinct cards, and their value at current market. Check this before adding to a set you already hold heavily. If you own a card on the page, Manage this listing opens its manage panel on your dashboard.Reading the chart shape
Once you’ve opened a set’s page, read the price history and the card roster as two separate signals rather than one. The price history tells you where the current value sits relative to its own recent range: a high, a low, or somewhere in the middle. A set up 15% this month that was also up 40% two months ago is in a different position than one making a fresh high — the first has already given some of its gain back once, the second hasn’t been tested yet. The card roster, ranked by price, tells you how concentrated that value is. A set where most of the value sits in two or three chase cards behaves differently from one where value spreads across twenty commons and uncommons — the first is a bet on those specific cards holding, the second is closer to a bet on the format or set as a whole. This affects whether singles or sealed product is the better way to get exposure to the set.Limits
