Market sectors

Read the whole market, not just one item.

Sector health groups the latest auction-house snapshot into markets such as Gems, Ore, Primals and motes, Herbs, Cloth, Enchanting, Consumables, and Recipes. Horde and Alliance stay completely separate; use the faction toggle to switch views.
