Ok, lets start with the day ahead market.

- The ‘look ahead’ window jumps from about half a day to one and a half day around 13:00 when new prices roll in.
- On many days the ‘midday low price’ window runs somewhere between 10:00 and 17:00
- Every morning DESS trade plans to charge the battery midday _but only to the level_ that it _knows_ it can sell back profitably within it’s _known_ look ahead window, which is upto midnight _that same day_ until the new prices roll in.
- Therefore DESS typically misses the opportunity to charge up much more in the late morning, not aware of the sell opportunity the next day early morning.
- And by the time to the new prices roll in, it’s too late obviously.

So my question is, how can DESS be made aware that there is a reasonable and quite stable _additional_ sell opportunity within the next 24 hours, in the morning?

Like right now, DESS is missing 2,5 hours of low price charging opportunity
