| # Introduction | |
| Second-by-second price updates from the last 60 seconds of the monthly license plate auction in Shanghai from 2014 to 2020, and a few months after that. The seconds data is given as a differential compared to the startprice. I managed to correctly predict and score a license plate on all three years that I worked on the project during 2018-2020. But it's not easy as there are lots of other factors affecting success on top of prediction accuracy. | |
