First time attempting this and have done some research on the process but just hoping for some guidance, specifically on what my starting bid should be and what algorithm is best to use. Max bid would be up to 125$ . Interested in bidding on 1 room in a 3 star and up hotel between May 15th and May 18th, 2015. Acceptable areas: 1) Beacon Hill 2) Boston Commons 3) Copley Square 4) Downtown Boston Rebid Areas without 3+ Hotels: Dorchester, Jamaica, Saugus, Watertown Thanks so much for the help! Edit: I understand the process of building an algorithm with the Acceptable Areas and Rebid areas, the part I wasn't clear on is how you modify your bidding as you add in zones. If someone would be able to give an example that would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
