Market price - Shichuusoba

Japanese: 市中相場 - しちゅうそうば

A market price that treats a collection of individually conducted buying and selling transactions as one market and continuously tracks them within a certain framework, such as the transaction stage and terms. Even if transactions are conducted individually, through free competition, the transactions will solidify into a certain line, and an index market price for the product will be formed. Market prices can be broadly divided into wholesaler market prices, which are aimed at the exchange of goods between wholesalers, and general wholesale market prices, which are the transaction prices at the stage from upstream to downstream in the product distribution route that is most faithful to the actual supply and demand situation.

Japanese:

それぞれ個別に進められている売りと買いの集まりを一つの市場としてとらえ，取引段階，取引条件など一定の枠組みを設けて継続的に追った相場。取引が個々に進められても，自由な競争を通じ，取引は一定の線に固まるため，その商品の指標的な相場が形成される。市中相場は，問屋どうしの荷の融通を目的とする問屋仲間相場と，商品流通の川上から川下への経路のうちで最も需給実態に忠実な段階の取引価格を抜き出した一般卸相場に大別できる。
