Cost per install doubled

A sudden jump points at the auction or at a change: a competitor arrived, a bid moved, or the page stopped converting. No installs at all in the recent days counts as at least double once the spend is there.

Fires when
A campaign's cost per install over 3 complete days is at least 2.0x its previous 14 days, with at least 20 installs in those and at least 1.0x CPA_t spent in the recent days.
