10/20/30 Bidding

What is 10/20/30 Bidding?

10/20/30 Bidding is a trading method through mass bidding on special cards lower than the current/average price. This guide is related to the Mass Bidding guide, please check that out to know more about it, I’m just going to talk about the differences and key tricks in this guide. 

Usually, this method has its peak around December – until the end of the FIFA year due to the big amount of new special cards almost every week! 

How does it work?

This Trading Method has a base filter behind the whole concept which also gave the name for it. It’s the:

Special Card (you can still use this even with the new update, just move your stick to the right or left while selecting the rarity, web app and companion app shouldn't have any problem)

Min. Bid: 10k

Max. Bid: 20k

Min. Bin: 30k

As you can see it's 10/20/30 from top to bottom. This filter allows us to search specifically for special cards with bids between the 10k-20k area and no bin lower than 30k. Ideally, you find cards undervalued and just about to expire. You aim to make a profit through bidding below the average or current prices. 

Ideally, you can also mix this method with many other methods you learned in the other guides like Special Card Flipping or Tech Avion! The usual aimed sell time is straight after winning a bid. 

Finding deals

Finding the right deals can be the tricky part here. 

I found the most efficient way to just check Futbin or the Daily Flipping Spreadsheet while searching the market. If possible, you can bid on a device and check the prices on a different device. That way you don’t lose much time switching around between multiple apps. I did it with console bidding and checking prices on my phone. 

The profit margins are different from card to card. You aim to make the biggest profit possible! You can also use some basic bidding tricks like bidding the last 3 seconds or bidding straight after the other. Another popular trick is to bid twice or 3 times back-to-back to make it look like multiple people are bidding and the other bidding people leave the bidding war. 

In my opinion, if you can hit 5-10% profit consistently, it’s really solid as you can hit up to 300 won bids per day!

Filters I use

Glitched Market

There’s one little downside with this trading method sadly. The FUT Market sometimes glitches out and you don’t see the expiring cards as you should.

I’m writing this guide before the release of Fifa 22 so I’m not sure if we have the same bug again but we had this in FIFA 18, FIFA 19, FIFA 20, and even in FIFA 21, I expect the same for FIFA 22. 

After setting up the filter and searching you sometimes see way fewer cards. These have very weird expiring times. Something around 4 minutes then 20 minutes then 1h and 10 minutes and so on. That’s a glitched market.

There’s a simple way to fix it! If you refresh the market a few times, it just goes away. You can do that with a new filter or you just spam comparing prices until it changes. Sometimes I also compare prices, leave it there for 5 min and then go back to the search results. That fixes it too.

Very annoying but that sadly happens. Many don’t know this trick and that’s why they call 10/20/30 the worst method ever, but you know it now and you can make a profit while everyone else is missing out.
