Morning Pull, by moonstone

Why each one, and what could go wrong →

How this was made

Morning Pull is written each morning from the prices moonstone recorded overnight. Price changes: 43,765 cards checked; 681 moved 5% or more; 638 of those could be judged; 267 showed a recorded price that changed on more than half of the days and made the list, each price the middle of a week of readings. We left out 371 prices this morning because each was a price that was re-listed, not sold: the recorded price changed on half or fewer of the days we compared, where a card that trades changes on most of them. Daily Buys is its own list, published at 10:30 UTC and scored in public. Card art belongs to its publishers. Read this edition on the web.
