How do I analyse how prices in an area have moved over time?

Resolve the place to a location id with ma_get_location_typeahead, fetch the series with ma_get_time_series_data, then calculate growth and volatility with ma_get_time_series_operations.

1. ma_get_location_typeahead: pass the place name in English and pick the location_id you want. Check the breadcrumbs when names repeat.
2. ma_get_time_series_data: request type_group apartment, business_type sale, data_point avg_price_psqm and date_interval month, with a date_range and the location ids. Each point holds one period's value.
3. ma_get_time_series_operations: request the same segment with operations such as mean, delta_pct, cagr, std and cv.

Casafari's example question: How has the asking price per m² of flats in Valencia moved over the last three years? Over REST, POST /market-analytics-api/time-series returns the series.
