Frequently asked questions

What is the Dota 2 Economy Index?

It is an anchored estimate built from relative movement in a fixed provider-observed basket. The dollar level depends on a documented external anchor; circulating supply is unknown, so it is not market capitalization. The page shows the actual basket size and observations when available.

Where does the data come from?

From saved third-party catalog observations. The multi-year line uses dated stored points and month-over-month chaining on comparable rows; the repository does not promise a daily refresh or verify every point as a completed Steam sale.

What does "market breadth" mean?

Breadth compares how many items rose versus fell over the recent window. A market can tick up in total value while most items fall — breadth shows whether a move is broad or driven by a few big items.
