  2. Re: Elo Access Function

    Good stuff, I'm interested in having a go at a rating system but don't really know where to start so I'll have a look into this elo thing and take a gander at MatellicIan's sheet, would be cool to create a macro to do the downloading and updating from footballdata so I migh try and think about that although my excel skills are moderate at best and as for VBA, well, I generally just copy and paste stuff from the various help sites across the web which I suppose is a good way of getting what you want if you've got the time and application. edit. I've got the elo file and unzipped it but it's an xlsm file and it won't open, is it not for excel (I use 2002 version) or am I being thick?
    Oh aye mate - one click button for me! Downloads zip file with all the data, then fixtures, unzips the file, merges all the csv files into a single one, few delete/append/update queries and I'm done. All takes around 2 minutes. The important thing to understand is knowing what you want to do and that if you can do it manually by clicking downloading etc. it CAN be automated!!
  3. Re: The a1ehouse top and the plops Backtested Eng Prem results quite poor with this system, but after 2 losses I was confident it wouldn't be a draw.

  7. Re: Elo Access Function

    There is something I can't understand. The question is: Is there a software that is being used for ELO ratings and the punter simply put the results or the punter do everything by his own on an excel sheet - the results, the tables and the predictions. Thank you in advance :)
    Hi sjuesju - its a bit of both!! Asc and myself use Access to import all the historic football match data into a database with various routines, functions and queries to generate the ratings. On the other hand, there is an excel spreadsheet by MetallicIan further up the thread which should help you get a good start on maybe a single league. It really depends on what you feel most comfortable using to generate your ratings, but bear in mind that they have to be updated each week to enable you to produce a prediction so the easier you can make it the better and less time consuming it is for you.

    Ajax scraped through that one! |Makes for a 9.54 profit today. Not bad overall, the two draws of -53 points for the weekend, which are likely but rare based on historic ratings, have been pretty much negated by the wins. Onwards and upwards.

  10. Re: The a1ehouse top and the plops 2 feckin draws in as many days (thread is well over a month old and there were 2 draws in all 37 selections!!) so I was touching cloth a bit with the Chelsea and Stirling games!!! Still a profit of 16.46 after "tax" even with the draw at Inter which cost ~ 22 points.

    Walk in the park! Will be testing the now infamous "Maria-Ratchet-Staking" plan based on staking % of the bank depending on available odds. £1000 bank so: 1.0% (£10 ~ liability under £25) if odds <=3.5 0.6% (£6 ~ liability £15.50-£38.40) if odds between 3.6 and 7.4 0.4% (£4 ~ liability £26-£40) if odds between 7.5 and 11 Although the B365 draw odds posted above at 6.5, the available Betfair odds at k/o were 8, so should have been £4 at 8.0 (libility £32) rather than laying £10 at 6.5 Have deducted the 5% commission so yield will reflect this also.

  14. Re: The a1ehouse top and the plops Looking at the disappointing overall yield, how can this be turned into something profitable? Reading a lot of threads about finding value, staking plans and laying systems got me into thinking laying the draw. At the above odds and selections I am right in thinking we'd have got (taking into account 5% commission)?

    Losing £50 on the Fenerbache game of 13 Feb and £28 on the Bury game of 21 March. If so I think a bit more backtesting is in order...

  16. Re: Not a system or strategy exactly but rather more help requested in developing one

    just ran 3 seasons into the current one , looking at a season's worth of 'form' as suggested. ignoring the first season, the others had a yield of 0%. the final season individualy had a yield of -7%. when cutoffs were set to <0 and >0 the yield again was 0%. again i suspect that the number of goals being strongly correlated to points does not help the model.
    Basically you'll be looking at every single game. I did a bit more digging today, what does your back testing look like when you restrict the odds to between 1.4 and 2.1?
  17. Re: Not a system or strategy exactly but rather more help requested in developing one Our survey says [url=http://www.jinglemad.com/e107_files/public/1193322240_6527_FT50091_wrong_answer.mp3]http://www.jinglemad.com/e107_files/public/1193322240_6527_FT50091_wrong_answer.mp3 Interesting discussion tho! Kanga - these things have to be explored and I'd rather it before the hard earned is placed :rollin.
