The API gives an unlimited forecasting window however the further out the forecast, the less reliable it is likely to be, much like a weather forecast is less reliable, the further out it is.
The UI could conceivably be tweaked to allow the visualisation of longer forecasting periods however it is felt that this would give limited value, due to the above point. MAD is not predicting the future, it is simply forecasting future values based on the current trends; it is primarily detecting significant change in observed values. The anomalies it presents can be indicators of a developing problem that could/should be investigated before it turns into a real problem. Given these points, it is unclear whether such a UI enhancement would add significant value.
