Hello -
Provided I understand correctly what you would like to archive, I think the answer is to run ESM several times using the BACK= option and to merge the results of each run.
Here is an illustration of what I'm referring to: I running ESM 12 times with a lead time of one while decreasing the out-of-sample size for each run and keeping the prediction of each run.
Hope that helps.
Thanks,
Udo
