  1. Open the US Chess statistics or player view and review the selected rating type and date.
  2. Use the chart controls to choose the players, states, or periods you want to inspect.
  3. Hover or select a chart point for the value behind it. A rank-change badge compares rating rank with the previous monthly rating update; the row number is the current rank.
  4. Read membership trend explanations. The displayed joins and expirations come from the available monthly rating lists and the period being tracked.
  5. Use the source and date information when comparing these charts with a current player rating or another report.
