Greetings everyone, I am a bit confused. How far in the past and the future should my data go. my dataset runs from Jan 2018 to july 2023, am I within the right range. I saw that we must use data from march 2022 to june 2023, how do i predict August cpi without july values? your response will be highly appreciated as I am in deep confusion.

Hullo there, they must have simply not updated that.. since the same write up has been used from the 1st mini challenge with adjustment of month names only. please use all data availed and are free to use any other relevant data as long as inform the management early stages of challenge and its shared to the rest. if am wrong.. can be corrected
