At a high level, the cyclical parts can be broken up into times/days/weeks/months, basically you want to find the best times to buy/sell and hold. You don't want to go all in on one investment and you also want to ensure your coins are out on the field, i.e. don't just stack coins to stack, have a solid team you're happy with and then worry about the stack.
I'm in CST, so I like to sell overnight for me, I can set it and forget it, always use 8 hours and make my auction price based on how hot an item is. If it's selling several times in an hour and therefore in demand, I know I can set my price above the lowest and it will probably sell once those lower than me dry up. If it's only got a sale here and there in the day and not in high demand, have to decide if I want to be the lowest and guarantee a sale or if I want to price higher and hope it will sell, could take a couple of reposts on the AH to sell if I go the latter route.
For days of the week, I've found that usually prices start to go up Monday night through Wed night at which they tend to get their highest since people by for WL then they start to drop down Thur-Sun and go back up again. If you stay on the market you'll notice this trend and you'll also notice the outliers. I've never ever sold off my whole team for a promo, in fact, I hardly sell any of my main team players and they stay on the squad from day one, joys of having a theme team, this makes it easier to spend training with confidence and not waste coins trying to power down or time the market because most of the times you will lose if you try to sell and catch a crash. I instead take advantage of the market by knowing when I should sell cards I don't need for my team that are over training value.
Knowing, based on history, what promos could be coming each month, also lets you know how to hold cards and when to sell, i.e. at the beginning of the game, if it isn't a huge profit, I hold every card I pull, even silver and gold and wait for the team diamond explosion, then I'll decide what I should sell individually, what I should exchange, and what I should use for sets I care about.
GAP packs are amazing early on to build your stack, just tedious but if you can do that while building your team to an acceptable state, you can come out way ahead using those as well as winning in H2H, the payouts are good for the time spent once you are in higher divisions.
I am with you that this game isn't worth spending the money on, for me personally, no game is, I bought the game and that's all I can give anyone unless it's well built DLC that will add on hours of enjoyment, pulling packs won't do that for me but I understand those who would rather go that route to save on the time it takes to get a team without additional costs money wise.
Lot of good info here, I appreciate it. Have definitely seen the increasing price Mon --> Wed then a decrease into the weekend. I've been super selective about my purchases and have done pretty well in general, though i'm sure not as well as you have done. Wish I had seen this write-up when I started playing!! GGs

I'll throw mine out there as I'm pretty proud of it. This is my first year of MUT with higher than a 93 OVR. I've done nearly every solo challenge available, every player I get that I don't need I quicksell for training to roll training packs which has been amazing for me. All of my 99's are from training packs, mostly from this draft promo :).
OVR 97
Coins: 2.05 Million on PC according to the lineup builder.

That's a nice team. This is my first year of MUT with higher than a 93 ovr too (I joined Madden 21 super late and only made it to 88 ovr).

Thank you! That’s awesome! Proud of us for managing to form competitive teams against a bunch of people who pay as well

Yeah I can’t say I’ve come across any hackers but the auction house is basically non existent which has been my biggest struggle. The only time I ever use the AH is when I’m buying gold players to finish sets for the daily objectives.

I'm NMS but a lot of time spent lol. These days I play daily just to do my daily objectives and save the free pack, you get a free pack every day so it's easy to just save them and grow, plus solo battles gives you several free packs too. And I saved all my level packs and any promo packs we are given until there is something I want to try to pull.
Since the game has been stale in terms of cowboys cards released, it's been easy to not open anything and now wait until GTs to open up everything in the hopes I can pull one.
I've played every Madden since learning about MUT in Madden '17 and was never enticed to spend money since it's so easy to build a God Squad as long as you are patient on when you buy and pay attention enough to sell at opportune times. It's all cyclical so it makes it very easy to predict the trends and take advantage of the market. But as I said, it does take a lot of time which is why I don't advertise I'm NMS, because even if I haven't spent a penny on packs, I've spent some time every day to get my team where it is, no one way is better than the other, it's whatever works for you.
This right here is a true nms
