contents Accurate probabilistic forecasting of intraday electricity prices is critical for market participants to inform trading decisions. Existing studies rely on specific domain features, such as Volume-Weighted Average Price (VWAP) and the last price. However, the rich information in the orderbook remains underexplored. Furthermore, these approaches are often developed within a single country and product type, making it unclear whether the approaches are generalizable. In this paper, we extract 384 features from the orderbook and identify a set of powerful features via feature selection. Based on selected features, we present a comprehensive benchmark using classical statistical models, tree-based ensembles, and deep learning models across two countries (Germany and Austria) and two product types (60-min and 15-min). We further perform a systematic generalization study across countries and product types, from which we reveal an asymmetric generalization phenomenon: models trained on more liquid markets or products transfer well to less liquid ones, whereas the reverse transfer leads to substantial performance degradation.
