For example, a value of 1w indicates your signal follows a weekly cycle (you want to compare data for a Monday morning with previous Monday mornings).

+     Cycle length works in conjunction with the duration of the time window used for data comparison, represented by the :strong:`Current window` parameter. Data from the current window might be compared against data from multiple previous cycles to detect historical anomaly.

+     For example, if the current window is ``1h`` and the cycle length is ``1w``, data in the past hour ([-1h, now]) is compared against data from the [-1w1h, -1w] hour, [-2w1h, -2w] hour, and so on.

      -  If the short-term variation in a signal is small relative to the scale of the signal, and the scale is somehow natural, using ``Mean plus percentage change`` is recommended; using ``Mean plus standard deviation`` might trigger alerts even for a large number of standard deviations. In addition, ``Mean plus percentage change`` is recommended for metrics which admit a direct business interpretation. For instance, if ``user_sessions`` drops by 20%, revenue drops by 5%.
