Requesting official guidelines - how to use the transfer market

Please I kindly request of you EA guidelines on how to 100% safely and legally use the transfer market in ultimate team without breaking any rules.

I only have this information from a email you sent to me:

We review trades in the Ultimate Team™ Transfer Market to make sure they’re fair and follow our rules. We do this by comparing the value of the item to the current value of the item in the Transfer Market to see if any extra value is being traded. This lets us know if there has been any Coin selling, buying, and/or distribution, which breaks our rules and goes against our User Agreement.

I am interested lo learn what is considered a fair trade and what your rules are because I cannot find any rules to follow anywhere.

If I am understanding this correctly, selling above market value is considered illegal and it breaks EA’s rules?

Thank you.

    Hello again, I am waiting for a response, I think it is only fair that you share what your rules are regarding the use of the transfer market, I can not follow rules if there aren’t any. Thank you for your cooperation regarding this matter.

    According to my appeal case

    Using uneven trades for example significantly under or over offering trade items is an offence

    May I enquire how much in terms of coins is significantly worth? It is an ambiguous way to describe something of uttermost importance

    Good day moderators, here please allow me to do your job for you, you are welcome 🙂

    https://help.ea.com/en/articles/ea-sports-fc/fc-rules/#ea-sports-fc™-rules

    I have not sold or bought any coins and I didn’t transfer coins between accounts, I only use 1 account to play.

    I have not done anything that is detailed in there so I can not understand your actions taken against me.

    Sell Items for a fair price on the Transfer Market

    Transferring Coins by trying to sell or buy Items well above or below their average Coin price, in order to send to your friends or to transfer Coins to anyone.

    Using terms like significantly or well above/below is open to interpretation and everyone will have their own opinion about it. Could you not be more specific?

    I believe your automated ban system flagged my account with a false positive because I sold a FUT birthday card of the player Flint, at the time her maximum range was 95,000 now it is a lot more (360,000 precisely as of time of writing this post) and this specific card was unavailable in the market.

    What is the market value of a card that is extinct? 

    I can not verify my suspicions because you are not sharing this information with me, even after a DSAR under GDPR article 15. Who is breaking rules here?

    Are EA breaking their own rules by making cards discard prices significantly less or well below market value?

    I am only asking a question here.
