Summary

The retraining process resulted in two new models, one for PD and one for 7day price forecast. After experimentation we retrained the price forecasting models using existing features and hyper parameter settings. The increase in accuracy (using Absolute Mean Error, AME) was approximately 5%. (see validation results table below comparing the previous models with the new models).

...

The model was validated by predicting the price between 09-07-2024 and 2123-07-2024.
