Mimicvat card analysis
This application scrapes scryfall for Magic the Gathering card information and prices. It uses Flask, sqlite, highcarts, and bootstrap to display charts and tables of that data.
The objective of this application is to track price information and alert the user when a card spikes in value. Also, the application informs them of associated cards that may also increase in value. I gather pricing data daily of both the normal and foil version, I gather popularity from edhrec.com, and I plan to scrape ebay for daily average supply of cards to monitor the supply/demand. I also calculate the average weekly price and standard deviation of cards to tell if they are increasing or decreasing in value over time. The user is informed to buy a card that is climbing (or plateaued) in value, as well as sell if the price is dropping.
The languages I used for this application include: python, html, javascript, and sql.
