Hi to all, I'm bit confused with the given dataset format.. I can understand that the actual timeseries are not given, just the aggregate candlestick values, but what about the target variable ? Do we have to contruct or define it somehow by ourselves ? Or it is something I'm misssing there ? Any general help/hint would be much appreciated !!

Hello,

the target variable which you need to predict is the mean value of a time series in the consecutive 168 hours. The historical values of this variable for each time series are given in the column 'Mean'.
