Price Trends: All the Prices That Move Your Business, In One Place
Spot patterns across 400+ commodities including raw materials, freight, or grains with historical trends, seasonal overlays, and custom alerts.
Why This Matters
Price changes often reflect shifts in supply, demand, logistics, or policy developments. Detecting these signals early can help procurement teams identify better purchasing windows, anticipate cost increases, and strengthen negotiation strategies.
Yet monitoring these developments across hundreds of products and multiple markets requires analyzing large volumes of data from different sources.
Without a structured view of pricing dynamics, identifying meaningful market trends in time becomes significantly more difficult.
Price Trends brings these signals together in one place, allowing you to track how prices evolve across commodities, regions, and time.
How it works
Price Trends consolidates pricing data from multiple sources and turns it into clear market insights.
1. Price data is aggregated
Pricing data from trusted third-party sources, including exchanges and market datasets, is collected across multiple commodities and regions.
2. Data is structured across products and markets
Prices are organized by product, category, source region, and time period to allow consistent comparison across markets.
3. Price movements are visualized
Interactive charts and datasets allow users to explore historical trends, compare products, and monitor price changes over time.
Market Price Coverage
Access pricing data across a wide range of commodities, including:
- amino acids
- vitamins
- phosphates and minerals
- freight rates
- grains, oils and seeds
- meat and other animal products
- FX rates
- and much more.
With over 400 commodities available, Price Trends provides a centralized view of pricing dynamics across raw materials, with built-in currency and unit of measure normalization, so your team can compare in both Relative and Absolute modes, seeing exactly what a commodity costs at any point in time, not just how it moves.
Price Analysis
Price Trends provides both real-time market pricing and extensive historical datasets, giving users a complete view of how markets have evolved and where they stand today.
The Analysis view provides detailed relative changes – day-on-day, week-on-week, and more – alongside simple moving averages (4, 10, 30, and 60 points), giving you a clearer read on price direction and momentum.
In Seasonal view, each year is plotted, so you can directly compare how a commodity behaved in the same month across multiple years, making seasonal patterns immediately visible.
Alerts & Monitoring
Stay ahead of market movements with customized alert configurations. Set thresholds and notification rules tailored to the commodities and price levels that matter most to your business, so your team is always informed when markets shift.
For each product, you can configure alerts based on:
- price rising above or falling below a set threshold,
- or by a defined percentage move, each with its own notification frequency.
This gives procurement teams precise, actionable signals without the noise of manual monitoring.
Cash & Forward Prices
In addition to current market prices, Price Trends also provides visibility into forward price quotes when available.
This allows procurement teams to understand market expectations and compare near-term and future pricing levels, helping them plan purchases and evaluate potential contract opportunities.
