I'm fast coming to the conclusion that the Cosy vs Agile debate is something for the experts in this field, and if Tracker is no longer in favour, the best course come April is to look at the fixed options at the time. Failing which, go for the standard variable. If anyone can suggest an improvement please shout!

I would not be fixing on today's pessimism. Things could get worse I suppose, but I rather suspect the market is in a state of overreaction right now and that could go on for a while.

Predict is suddenly suggesting that we might get soe VERY favourable dips in the price overnight - be interesting to see if it happens! The next few days are also looking like we will all be carefully programming our washing machines and dishwashers, too!

Charging our cars n'all! Might even have a wash too. ;-)
Yes, it suddenly changed after not recognising that we were going to get strong winds, here and in Europe.

ooh… that looks good. Might use electric heating tonight instead of oil to help it last a bit longer!

The price cap for April-June was set pre-war - it actually improves in April.
I'm moving my gas to flexible, to see out the winter, but there's no point in moving from agile prematurely

Overnight rates not as low as I usually charge the car at but this is war-time, so needs must, and just about enough time to get back to 100%. Beats queueing at a smelly petrol station and paying £2/litre, so mustn't grumble.

Yep. Definitely not as good as hoped bearing in mind the wind but better than it has been! Evening peak is well above the SVR in East of England though - although the drop back to that level at 1900 will be welcome!

Welp, the two worst days on Agile so far - Sunday was 30p more expensive than the SVT and yesterday 37p more expensive. I can live with that 😆

Agile wins for me just because my standing charge is lower than flexible.
