Player values - algorithm

robpaw · January 24, 2009, 01:02:32 AM

G'day. Think i remember seeing pricing predictions for DT players on here last year immediately after games had been played (and well in advance of new player values being posted on the official DT comp website) - which means the "algorithm" has been figured out. Can anyone please post the formula? Have worked out the one for the EPL DT comp (which is very easy) but struggling with the AFL DT one. Obviously starting player values are in the most case last year's average times the magic number (4.438 i read on here for 2009), but knowing how the prices change during the season would of course be very valuable. Cheers boys, keep up the good work!

Can't tell you the formula but there's a Java Program called 'nothing' that is great for predicting prices weeks ahead and more.

DT talk posted about it last season and i guess they will do it again this season. So really not much point in hiding it.

i think the formula is something like (1/4 old price + 3/4 3game Avg price)/2 = new price

I could be wrong but
