They should send you a T & C email which you have to agree to. It starts from the midnight (00:00) on the day you agree to the T & C. It did for me,

So being on Agile is saving us money without much load shifting even compared to the original tracker formula.
I have started to follow this person on X and will see how close their predictions are when the prices come out at 4pm

1) for next day, follow the red chart (released at 10am):
https://data.nordpoolgroup.com/auction/n2ex/prices?deliveryDate=2024-02-22&deliveryAreas=NO2,UK¤cy=EUR&aggregation=Hourly
Just for rough idea divide values there by 7 and you will get quite a good guess. Obviously not related to 16-19 etc.
2) Long term, the closer the red line to green-yellow the cheaper the prices, if they almost touch it's likely to be negative:

So the next 2 nights will be cheap, then back to normal 10p+.2
