What percentages for different factors?

[iroquois]

What percentage is ideal for the crucial factors when analising a game? for example: 1) Home/away = ? 2) form = ? 3) h2h = ? 4) offensive capacity = ? 5) defensive capacity = ? 6)last home/away game = ? 7) last form game = ? 8) h2h goals between the two teams = ? what are for you the crucial ones? some missing? what you think of that?

Re: What percentages for different factors? I don't think there is a set of "concrete" rules regarding the weighting of the various factors you have listed. My advice is to try and keep it simple.... if you find a "factor" that produces good results in back-testing, then stick to it.... don't complicate matters by introducing too many variables. This is only my personal advice.... probably some statistics experts on this forum have other ideas. By the way, the Moderators will probably remove the link to your web-site... I think you have to give recognition to Punters Lounge on your site...... I am afraid my Portugese is not very good (i.e. = 0) so I couldn't really appreciate the commentary on your site ;)
