- Record: It has no graded forecasts yet; the first is graded on 20 Nov 2026.

## How the model works

Daily crossings of the Taiwan Strait are a steady flow of commercial traffic that varies around a stable level, so the best guess is the latest count with a mild pull back after a jump. None of the ranked inputs has a physical path to this traffic, so the model uses only the series' own recent move.

- About 0.0185 of the last week's change in daily crossings carries into the next week, with a negative sign meaning a pull back toward the usual level. DataSnack's author expected -0.2; the data say 0.0185 ± 0.11. A rough rule.
