The exalted orb price on jsp is largely tied to the RWT price of supplier sites you can buy them off of.
If you can buy exalts orbs for $10 a piece they will be around 1000 fg.
If you can buy exalts for $5 a piece they will be around 500 fg.
Jsp is in essence another way to RWT. People just convert Exalts to FG --> Fg to Tix / other currency --> $$$
----
That being said -- As more exalted orbs enter the league and the league draws closer to standard the RWT sites adjust their prices --> Jsp drops fg price to match.
Sometimes you will notice that people will buy tons of exalts on the forum at odd times in the league -- That's because the RWT sites are above the Jsp market -- So they buy exalts here for $.93 or something and sell that on RWT sites for $1.00
Edit:
The exalted orb prices are MUCH more flexible in the first week of the league because the exalt orb represents buying power with respect to chaos at that time -- Thus if you have an early exalt you have A LOT of buying power to get the gear you need.
If you trade your exalt for something like a first day Presence of Chayula you transfer your massive buying power for an item you need (but maybe they didnt) to them -- So they can do the same -- This happens until people are content with getting their build enabling items and exalts are then used instead for buying power to "enhance" already good items. This is when you see prices get tied together.
Wow! Thx for explain of detail
