Table should display ranges instead of known values

Open KennethKinLum opened this issue 4 years ago • 3 comments

Version of the tool

v2.1.2-build.16

Describe the bug

Go to the new, blank page, and type in Mon AM: 77 Tue PM: 157 Now the only possibility of 660 is Wed AM, so type in Wed AM: 206 and now all hope of 660 should be gone.

Would it be expected the graph doesn't show 660 any more? Or is the page being used in a way that is not supposed to?

HI @KennethKinLum!

I think you're using the tool as it's supposed to.

Yes, you had a possibility of 660 given that you didn't input Buy Price (which is important to give an accurate maximum).

But yeah, the algorithm tells us that you're on High Spike or Small Spike, but we can't predict exactly what value you will have as it's random. All we know is that it will be from 1.4 to 6 times your buy price. In this case, as we don't know your buy price we will assume that it is 90 at minimum or 110 at maximum. So 1.4 * 90 = 126. 6 * 110 = 660. This gives us a range from 126 to 660.

I am sorry that we can't do more than that!

The reason is that in the data table, it already doesn't show the 660, but in the graph, it still show it. I was wondering if the data table and the graph should match each other?

Oh, this is a experience design thing, I thought that showing your input data it would be more useful when sharing screenshots of the table. Also improves mobile experience because a single number is shorter than a range. I’m keeping the graph as it is because that way we can feel how “lucky” we got.

But I’m open to hear other thoughts.
