Hi Alex !!

I just want to ask you about the depreciation period !

What does mean if I changed it to "0" zero ?


By the way I'm using data from the last five seaons !!

"Depreciation period, days
Program uses past games in the statistical evaluation of ratings and in-totals. New games are valued higher than old ones. Past games are completely ignored if they are older than depreciation period. Typical depreciation period is about 900 days in a soccer leagues. It is possible to set fixed starting date of depreciation period so that its duration will gradually grow. Toggle these modes by double-clicking depreciation period control. "

Many thanks to trueblue2 for the explanation. If you set DP=0, then all the games will have constant weight = 1, i.e. as if they all were played today.
