DESS algoritme not logical when the whole day the price is zero

@dfaber

In what scenario would that be profitable? That will only happen if the prices of Sunday are higher and what guarantee is there for that?

Is this directed at me? I have stated my problem before:

@UpCycleElectric

I could as a bare minimum state my problem as:
Our dedicated large capacity DESS Trade only (no solar) system fails to execute reliably on obvious (to a reasonably knowledgeable observer of the price graphs) money making trade opportunities.
And then from there I could dive into what obvious money making opportunities are and when they are missed. When that is done I could reiterate into further detail, until I arrive at the technical level. Once that technical is reached, it starts to make sense to start adding proposed workarounds, but not much earlier.

I am pretty sure that a reasonably knowledgeable observer of the price graphs would agree that the chances are extremely low to non existent that the prices will stay at 0ct (before taxes) or only lower tomorrow, and the days thereafter.

May I ask why you focus on the validity of the observation/question instead of on the actual technical (systems control) subject at hand? In this specific situation I would think there need to be no discussion whether a full day of ~0ct prices is a good buying opportunity, and why. A key element to this has to do with the relatively large battery capacity in relation to the maximum power performance of the system. That makes waiting till next day prices roll in a missed buying opportunity.
