How to read this forecast

The fan shows where the forecast puts the price in 60 days; the lines from today to then are drawn, not forecast day by day.

Assumes the whole market keeps rising about 3.9% every 60 days, as it has lately. That part is a guess from the recent past, not a prediction — the 'vs market' figure above does not depend on it.

Prices here are TCGplayer's market price, which is an average of recent sales, so it trails a real move by a few weeks. Part of any short-term forecast is that delay catching up — visible in the chart, but not something you can buy at.

Beating the market, or just riding it?

Moving with the market

Over the last 2 months this card rose 3.2%, while the typical card we track rose 4.6%: it finished 1.4% behind the market, inside the 10% either way we count as moving with it. Its price has mostly been riding the market.

Describes the last 2 months, not what happens next. Not investment advice.

Is this card interesting right now?

Notable - 82 out of 100

It ranks above 83% of the cards we track. The score describes the conditions around the card today - how sellers are pricing it, how it is trending, how steadily it trades. Its weights were tuned on how cards moved over the following 60 days, so a high score is a tendency across many cards, not a forecast for this one - and it says nothing about whether you will enjoy owning the card.

Why is it interesting?

Firmer recent move than most and very steady price

The recent move is within this card's normal range, but stronger than most cards' moves this month. The price moves in small, calm steps rather than lurching around. Working against it: it edged ahead of the market over two months, but by less than most cards did.

Is it becoming more popular?

Mixed

Compared with the Pokemon market as a whole, so a rising tide does not count as popularity. In this market these trends have tended to keep going rather than reverse.

Past month+3.0%
Past 2 months-1.4%
Past 4 months-0.5%

Is it expensive or cheap?

$8.03 - expensive for its set

At $8.03 it is one of the priciest cards in its set - number 18 of 306 by price. It costs more than 31% of other Secret Rare cards we track. It is at or near its highest price of the past year.

What makes this card unusual?

Secret Rare - a scarcer rarity

623 tracked cards share this rarity (1% of all cards we track). This is the Holofoil printing, which is priced as a completely separate market from the other printings of the same artwork.

Could you actually buy or sell it?

Easily - it trades often

The price changed in 48% of our checks over the past year across 365 observations. TCGplayer's market price only updates when a copy sells, so a low figure means the price shown may be stale and any trend reading is built on very few real sales.

How does the grading fee compare?

Fee exceeds raw price

A roughly $22.00 grading fee is 274% of the $8.03 raw price. Raw price plus fee comes to about $30.03, before shipping, insurance or selling costs. That is a cost comparison, not an estimate of a graded copy's value. We track raw ungraded prices only - no graded sales and no population data. We cannot assess this copy's condition or tell you what a PSA 10 is worth. Check condition and comparable graded sales before deciding whether grading would pay off.
