Hi

I created a virtual machine in my region "Standard NV6ads A10 v5 (6 vcpus, 55 GiB memory)".

At the time of creation I chose "Spot Pricing" which priced this at 0.016.. USD / hour.

Today, when I looked at the VM's Sizing it states "0-5% $0.23475 (75%)"

Why would it have increased by +- 0.06 USD?

    Hi Ian,

    Spot VM pricing varies based on demand and capacity. It's common in my experience to see different price for same size at different times/days.
