    Default SporTrends NBA software formulas and PR questions

    I recently purchased the SporTrends Pro Basketball software and am having trouble creating a formula that cracks 53% ATS or 52% O/U over the past two years.

    Also, what is a good amount of games to calculate the Power Rankings at?

    Some ideas from those familiar with the software would be much appreciated. Thanks.

    I have the software also and I think it will be difficult to do. On the O/U i have been using 2 formulas. Then print the report and play the ones that agree if there is a 15 point overlay. Still been working on the ATS.

    Tweak,try starting with 20 games back this seems to be working fairly well as far as pr plays go.

    Forget the forumulas just use the power rankings to make your plays. I've been using the PR since 11/15 using the criteria in the excel thread. YTD 23-11

    The software is a little different from the excel system. With the software it's home and away PR's only. I use the HA with a 2 point overlay. It's hitting a bit higher right now that it normally does but I'll take 60-62% for this season anytime. Definately worth the $50.

    i bought the software but have been playing around with the formulas but want to get better at the PR's. So how many games do u go back and do you then take the PR's and calculate by hand.

    Soxrock,use 20 games back to calculate pr,s,then add or subtract the line for the game.......There must be a two point overlay for the game to be a play.......Go to the beginning of the NBA thread for the rest of the rules regarding plays.
