Daily budget should allow for 50+ installs or 10+ in-app
events per day for the machine learning algorithm to
learn and optimise effectively.
No changes to bids or budgets following 2 weeks after
every major change (learning phase).
Bids
To ensure a stable transition when adjusting bids, minimize bid
and budget adjustments to no greater than 20% every few days.
