Het is inderdaad correct dat we uit deze reeks kunnen concluderen dat er schijnbaar een trendmatig verloop is dat schijnbaar voorspelbaar is maar er zijn geen patronen van deze reeks die ons in staat stellen er een voorspelling over te doen. Algemeen kunnen we nog zeggen dat er geen seizonaliteit is. De student heeft dit juist geanalyseerd.

Het klopt dat er bij deze methode geen seizoenaliteit waar te nemen is. Toch moet de student nog expliciet toevoegen dat er ook geen lange termijntrend waar te nemen is! Dit kan verklaard worden omdat we hier werken met een simulatie! Een stijging of daling is hier puur door toeval te verklaren. We kunnen hier dus nooit patronen in herkennen om een voorspelling te maken.
