Latest hourly price and 24h change.
Every hour, Chinchompa News stores the average instant-buy and instant-sell price and the volume for every Grand Exchange item, from the OSRS Wiki real-time prices API. History goes back to 30 September 2026, when the wiki’s data switched to coming from Jagex and covering every client.
What counts as a mover
The movers page compares an item’s average price over the last three hours with the same three hours one day (or one week) earlier. Averaging both ends keeps a single odd hour from topping the list.
An item only qualifies if at least 10M gp changed hands over the window, valued at the lower of the two prices. That last part matters: a handful of joke trades at an absurd price would otherwise look like millions of gp of “volume”.
What this isn’t
None of this is trading advice. It’s a record of what moved, so we can go and find out why.
