Fifa 22 Inform Investing
Hey guys,
I wanted to start out our investing tips with one of the most simple and applicable investing methods every single year!
Inform investing is a way to increase your coin total over time without much risk or effort. Let's talk about why informs hold more values than other cards -
Informs are required specifically for SBC's! During the first few months, you may see this more rarely, but over time it's frequent. Later in the year, they often add an option that allows you to choose either "TOTS or TOTW"!
As you see in the images below, you need a specific squad rating + an inform. In Fifa 21, there were occasional gambling/casino SBC's that required 2 informs. This caused an explosion in price and made many informs go extinct at their max price range.
HOW DO WE INVEST?
Informs are typically lowest while they are in packs as they are constantly getting supplied. To keep it simple, you will want to invest while they are in packs although specific day of the week may vary.
Informs can often be lowest around Sunday when they get supplied from Squad Battle rewards, but it's not the same each week.
Ideally, you are looking for informs that are either the cheapest of their rating overall or the cheapest of their rating in a specific position!
Futbin can help us easily identify this!
HOW MANY TO BUY?
This doesn't apply to all investments, but there are two extremely strong ways to invest with informs.
You can invest passively with a club stock. This is where you buy 1 card of the investments you like and store them in your club. It takes up no transfer list space, so you can continuously do this all Fifa.
If you do this properly all year, it can be a method that produces 1 million+ coins alone.
Alternatively, if you love an investment and have a higher budget going ALL-IN is not a bad choice. It's not often I give this go ahead, but inform investments provide a very low-risk opportunity. If you can make a 15-25% return on investment a week on a higher budget it's absolutely massive.
For example, let's say an 83-rated IF CB costs 15K during the TOTW.
If you put in 5 million coins, you would buy 333 cards.
In this example, let's say he rises to 20K after a few days out of packs (OOP)
20,000 X .95 (EA tax .05) = 19K
4K profit per card x 333 cards = 1.332 million coins profit!
Last year, we had multiple members go hard on this weekly to boost their coin total!
WHEN TO SELL?
This may be a traders least favorite question as you may know! As much as we love to help, to properly answer this we typically respond with a variety of other questions.
You almost always want to wait until these cards are out of packs (OOP) to sell. Informs generally progressively rise with time, so the longer you wait the more profit you could make per card.
Selling depends on when you want your coins back, what other investments you want to make and how many coins you have currently. It may also be dependent on if you want to spend coins on your team!
All in all, sell when you are happy with the profit!
Example from last year -
Wolf was the cheapest 81 rated RB when he was released in TOTW. He was available at 10K.
After just 1 week out of packs he went to 17K!
If you bought 100, you would have made 700K profit!
