Grade systems differ, so we compare top-grade averages. Species where you're the only port reporting are shown separately.

Reading Competitive Position

In the per-species bar chart, the red marker shows the UK average across all ports. Your bar shows where you land. A Best UK badge means you have the highest price in the country for that species today.

Click any species row to expand it and see which specific ports you're ahead of or behind.
Smart Alerts

Smart Alerts automatically flag four types of event:

Price Spike — a species price moved significantly vs recent history.
New Species — a species appeared that wasn't in yesterday's data.
Species Gap — a species you normally sell is missing from today's data.
Market Position — you've moved above or below the UK average for a key species.

Check alerts each morning before the auction. No action needed — they're informational only.
