How Do FPL Price Changes Work?

Player prices in FPL change daily based on net transfer activity. If more managers buy a player than sell him, his price rises by £0.1m; if net transfers are negative, the price falls.

The price change algorithm uses the ratio of transfers in to transfers out from the previous day. Players can rise up to £3m above their starting price and fall as far as £3m below it.

When you sell a player who has risen in price, you only receive 50% of the profit above your original purchase price — so buying risers early maximises squad value. Tracking imminent price changes is one of the most effective ways to gain a squad-value edge over your rivals.
