FIFA 21 early trading method sniping

A great early trading video by seasoned trader @UniqueRiggers showing how sniping cards can work. Make profits by researching players you have an idea will sell and flip them as often as you can for small profits.

Which FUT players to trade in early

English Premier League is the biggest league in the world so go through players and see what their lowest buy now is. Players around the leagues who fit into various squads due to nationality. These will fit into potential SBCs too. So when a suitable SBC drops even bigger profits. Mainly the top 9 nations focusing on France, Argentina and Brazil. Fullbacks seem to be a good profit maker and wingers.

Using web app filters to trade in FUT

A great video below from one of the well known traders in the FIFA community @RunTheFUTMarket. We start the video as Nick explains how he uses filters to find particular players. You can watch the entire video for help and tips but we think this is the key part of the video to make coins. Knowing how to use filters and also using the webapp even when you have the full game is important.

Player price accuracy on sites

When trading early in FIFA 21 you have to be careful when referencing websites such as FUTBin and FUTWiz etc. In the first few days of every FIFA prices fluctuate and the tracking of the sales seems to vary between sites. Potentially meaning that selling prices shown on the sites can be wrong.

To make sure you don’t get caught out research players that you are attempting to trade in. Check a few websites and also the transfer market to see what players are selling for in open bids. Below shows screenshots of Neymar at the same time on each site. One has up to date price on PS4 and one on Xbox. Make sure you check!

Keep or sell at start of FUT?

Generally if you have good players at the start hold them until the game has been out for a week to maximise profit on selling. However if you are wanting to sell to build a strong team remember that all other players will be high in value too. So the best way is to sell them all and then build a lower rated team grinding for packs etc. This advice is aimed at the general FIFA player not higher level players who will desperately need crazy teams to compete in the top divisions. Great video from FIFA trader FUT_Accountant covers these points.

Team of the Week player investing

How to trade in TOTW players by @UniqueRiggers. When you have coins from opening starter packs and playing squad battles etc. You can invest early in TOTW players. This will be the same in FIFA 21 over the first few weeks.

Also check the analysis from @FUT_Economist of previous FIFA TOTW prices within the starting weeks of FIFA.

SBC and objective player investing

Probably the easiest way to make coins without really trying in FIFA. Every week there are SBCs and objectives set which rise the price of cards. Early on keep high rated players of common nations and leagues. Often you will need 83 and higher rated squads to complete SBCs. Save these early on and they could sell for maximum value for an SBC. Make sure sell them at the start of the SBC for maximum profit. Keep an eye on key times such as 3pm onwards during day times. EA usually make new ones live at 6pm.

FIFA 21 early trading tips:

  • Don’t worry about trading some top traders didn’t even use webapp.
  • You never need to buy packs in FUT to get a decent team.
  • Check player prices often and keep high rated players for a week.
  • Grind Squad battles and objectives to gain coins to invest.
  • Research player prices from actual market not just websites.
  • Buy and sell cheaper teams while building to main team.
