Anomalies

50 pulse alerts fired, with five hitting max/near-max severity — all volume surges rather than price shocks:

  • Rune dart tip (severity 100, -0.16%)
  • Dragonstone bolts (e) (severity 100, -0.70%)
  • Cooked karambwan (severity 100, -0.19%)
  • Runite bar (severity 99, -0.07%)
  • Teak logs (severity 99, -0.34%)

Heavy trading activity across all five, but prices barely moved — no clear catalyst in today's data.

Alch arbitrage

These sell on the GE below their High Alch value — buy, cast, profit (nature rune cost already deducted):

  • Mystic set (blue): buy 139,103 gp → alch 140,862 gp = 1,759 gp/cast, ~2.11M gp/hr.
  • Dragon med helm: buy 58,504 gp → alch 59,862 gp = 1,358 gp/cast, ~1.63M gp/hr.
  • Dragon halberd: buy 148,900 gp → alch 149,862 gp = 962 gp/cast, ~1.15M gp/hr.
  • Mystic lava staff: buy 25,988 gp → alch 26,862 gp = 874 gp/cast, ~1.05M gp/hr.
  • Dragon platelegs: buy 161,000 gp → alch 161,862 gp = 862 gp/cast, ~1.03M gp/hr.

Mystic set (blue) leads on gp/hr but has the thinnest daily volume (1,040) — dragon med helm's 12,070 volume makes it the more sustainable grind.
