Very good, this will work.

Yes, use from [persistence docs](https://www.openhab.org/docs/configuration/persistence.html#predefined-strategies) `forecast` strategy. The whole `price` group is delivering future values for spot-price, level and average values.  
If you never used it before just a short explanation:

- item in UI will show you the actual value
- [use this tutorial](https://community.openhab.org/t/displaying-the-weather-forecast-with-charts-openweathermap/156348) to visualize forecasts in UI chart
- use [persistence extensions](https://www.openhab.org/docs/configuration/persistence.html#persistence-extensions-in-scripts-and-rules) to query forecast values with e.g. `$SPOT_PRICE_ITEM_NAME.persistedState(ZonedDateTime.now.plusHours(1))` to get the price for the _next_ hour
