EVE Item Indexes

EVE Metrics provides highly accurate item indexes over selectable time ranges as well as graphs of this data. This data is available programatically using the EVE Metrics API.

Notes on the indexes

EVE Metrics provides several indexes built from different data sources. These are ERAP (EVE Reported Average Price) and EMCP (EVE Metrics Computed Price)

ERAP is compiled the average prices, as shown on the market history page (as a graph or table ingame).

EMCP is compiled from market orders, as reported to EVE Metrics by users running the EVE Metrics Uploader. Only reliable (cache, not log) updates are used for indexes to ensure indexes are not tampered with by data insertion.

In nearly all cases, ERAP is likely to be a more reliable average. However, EMCP by it's nature often reflects more accurately trends in the market, and as such remains a useful indicator.

Geographical Location Notes

By default, EVE Metrics will use the main empire trading regions for index calculations. However, should you wish to view indexes for specific regions, you can log in and set up favourite regions which will let EVE Metrics to calculate indexes for your favourite regions.
