Can I use NodeLighthouse to buy tickets automatically?

No. It is for monitoring public prices and listings. Using software to get around ticket purchase limits is prohibited by the US BOTS Act and is not an allowed use.

Which rotation mode suits price monitoring?

Rotating, on port 9000. Each listing check is an independent request.

Can I compare prices between countries?

Yes. Change the country segment in the username; all 172 countries are on the same $1.65/GB price.

Proxies for ticket price monitoring

Ticket prices and resale listings move quickly and differ between marketplaces and regions. Residential proxies let you check public listing pages as a visitor in each market sees them, so you can compare prices and availability across platforms.

Session type

Rotating (port 9000): a new IP on every request

Targeting

Country of each marketplace; state or city if listings are regional

What this covers

Monitoring public data: face-value and resale prices, which sections are listed, how listing counts change over time, and how the same event is priced on different marketplaces or regional sites.

Price and fee comparison across resale marketplaces.
Availability and listing-count trends for market research.
Regional pricing checks for tours that sell in several countries.

Setup

Listing pages are independent fetches, so the rotating port 9000 fits most monitoring. Set the country, and state or city if a marketplace localizes by region. Poll on a schedule that matches how fast prices actually change, not as fast as possible.

Monitoring only, not automated buying

NodeLighthouse is not for buying tickets with bots or for getting around purchase limits. In the US, the BOTS Act prohibits using software to get around the ticket purchase limits and security measures a seller puts in place, and other countries have similar laws. Use the proxies to read public pricing and availability data, and follow each marketplace's terms. See the acceptable use policy.
