History back to 2021 is monthly, from PriceCharting sales; the recent detail is live near-mint market pricing. The CardTrack 100 re-ranks the basket every month and chain-links the return, so it reflects the actual top 100 Pokémon cards at each point in time — not today's basket projected backward.

Methodology changes

Every change to how the index is built, dated from the data files themselves. Nothing is restated from memory.

  • 2021-09-01 — Index base date (level 100): the 100 most valuable single Pokémon cards, value-weighted, rebalanced monthly.
  • 2026-06-30 — Public launch of /ct100 with the Dataset, CSV history and embed widget.

Methodology

What it tracks

The CardTrack 100 is the 100 most valuable single Pokémon cards we track, selected purely by current market value. The basket is recomputed on every build, so as prices move, cards drop in and out of the top 100.

The index

It's a value-weighted index (Σ price[t] / Σ price[base] × 100), rebased to 100 at the base date 2021-09-01 — so the priciest cards move it most, the same way a market-cap index works. The headline number is the basket's live combined value; the chart plots that in dollars.

History & coverage

The historical line isn't today's basket projected backward — it's re-ranked and chain-linked every month. At each month we take the actual top 100 by value at that time (drawn from every Pokémon card with deep PriceCharting history — not just today's holdings), then chain that period's return onto the index. So a card entering or leaving the top 100 doesn't create a fake jump — only the actual price moves of whoever was “held” during that step do, the same way a real market-cap index rebalances. Membership is also sticky: a card only drops out once a challenger clearly overtakes it (by more than 10%) — small month-to-month wobble near the #100 cutoff doesn't churn the basket. History back to 2021-09-01 is monthly, from PriceCharting sales; the recent tail is live daily market pricing.

Price basis

A Raw (Near-Mint) index. Prices are our continuous market value (TCGplayer/Cardmarket blends via our catalog). A PSA 10 (graded) series is planned for v2.

Data sources

Market prices from our pricing pipeline; the long-run history uses PriceCharting sales. For informational purposes — not financial advice.
