The 24-hour figure sits too far from the 30-day one to describe a month of trading, so we draw no conclusion from it. Cardmarket publishes averages but not how many copies they are averaged over, and we will not guess at the reason. The source figures are shown above without interpretation.
Note the weekly average of €13.12 sitting outside both the daily and the monthly figure. That happens when only a handful of copies change hands, and one sale drags the average with it. On a card this thinly traded, none of these three numbers is a price you can count on.
