Dynamic traffic lights (multi sourcing)

Example of a traffic light auction withdynamic traffic lights (multi sourcing) and a price range of 5.00 Euro.

• All bids > 300,00 Euro = red light

• All bids <= 300,00 Euro = yellow traffic light

• All bids <= 280,00 Euro = green light

The setting Dynamic traffic lights (Multi Sourcing) and a price range of 5.00 Euro has the effect that if a bid is placed < the value of the green traffic light (= 280.00 Euro), but this bid is not > the price range of 5.00 Euro, e.g. 278.00 Euro, no change of the traffic light values takes place.

If a bid > of the price range, e.g. 5.50 Euro below the value of the green traffic light is submitted, e.g. 274.50 Euro, this bid is automatically set as the new value for the green traffic light and the difference to the previous value (= 5.50 Euro) is dynamically traced for all other traffic lights (similar to dynamic traffic lights (single sourcing)). This means in this example, the new value of the green traffic light is <= 274,50 Euro, the value of the yellow traffic light is <= 294,50 Euro and the red traffic light will be displayed from a bid > 294,50 Euro. The value of the green traffic light (= 274,50 Euro) can again only be changed dynamically by another lower bid > 5,00 Euro, e.g. 269,00 Euro, and so on.
