Flip Finder · Guild Wars 2
How the Flip Finder Works
The Flip Finder scores every tradeable item in the selected game and surfaces the top opportunities ranked by a composite signal. For two-sided markets like GW2, the score reflects the live buy/sell spread adjusted for velocity and trend. For one-sided auction-house markets like WoW and FFXIV, it compares the current price to the 30-day average — a mean-reversion signal. Scores refresh after every price update: from a few minutes for actively-watched items to several times a day for the full catalog.
GW2 — Spread-Based
Scores the gap between buy and sell price as a percentage of the sell price, weighted by trading velocity and adjusted for trend. Wide spread + liquid market = high score.
WoW & FFXIV — Temporal
One-sided markets have no live buy orders, so there is no spread. The score measures how far below the 30-day average the current price sits. High score = item is cheap relative to its history; buy and relist at the average.
Tips
- Sort by Score, then set a Minimum Profit filter to remove micro-margin items
- Click any item to open its price history chart before placing a buy order
- Check volume bars on the chart — thin markets have wide spreads that rarely fill
