FC 24 Winter Wildcards Market Crash - What Will Happen to the Market During Winter Wildcards Promo?
- The combination of desirable new player items and heavy supply of packs is the perfect recipe for a market crash. Prices already tend to trend down gradually through December. But the Winter Wildcards deluge crashes the market hard.
- When top tier meta icons and special cards are suddenly available for a fraction of their former prices, it triggers a market panic with investors trying to sell off their high value cards before they decrease further.
- Most players will see their prices plummet during the promo's peak. But some cards like fodder and certain popular OTWs could rise from increased demand for Winter Wildcards SBCs.
- The market freefall lasts through the promo then gradually recovers in January as supply dries up. Savvy traders can make big profits sniping crashed cards when hype dies down.
- For buyers, it's the optimal window to buy dream squads and icons at massively reduced prices. But invest wisely, as another market crash typically follows during the Team of the Year promo in early January.
