Chinese Slumber Method prediction for Sunday April 06Prediction valid for: Sunday 2014-04-06, 19:00--19:59 UTC (not before, not after)
Huobi's predicted price: 2874 CNY.
Bitstamp's predicted price: 466 USD.
Plot legendThis last data point was not too bad (S = 0.0038, W = 0.745), and almost aligned with the previous two points. Therefore it seemed appropriate to use again a straight trend line, defined by least squares on the last three Slumber points - namely, A + B*(d-d0) where d-d0 is the number of days since Apr/03, A = 2667.94, B = 68.82.
The Bitstamp prediction, as usual, is the Huobi prediction divided by the currency conversion factor R, which was assumed to be 6.17 CNY/USD (it was 6.20, 6.13, 5.96 at the last three Slumber Times).
