C-h v org-agenda-ignore TAB will open many doors.

See C-h org-agenda-todo-ignore-timestamp RET for example:

  Non-nil means don't show entries with a timestamp.
  This applies when creating the global todo list.
  Valid values are:
  
  past     Don't show entries for today or in the past.
  
  future   Don't show entries with a timestamp in the future.
           The idea behind this is that if it has a future
           timestamp, you don't want to think about it until the
           date.
  
  all      Don't show any entries with a timestamp in the global todo list.
           The idea behind this is that by setting a timestamp, you
           have already "taken care" of this item.
  
  This variable can also have an integer as a value.  If positive (N),
  todos with a timestamp N or more days in the future will be ignored.  If
  negative (-N), todos with a timestamp N or more days in the past will be
  ignored.  If 0, todos with a timestamp either today or in the future will
  be ignored.  For example, a value of -1 will exclude todos with a
  timestamp in the past (yesterday or earlier), while a value of 7 will
  exclude todos with a timestamp a week or more in the future.
  
  See also `org-agenda-todo-ignore-with-date'.  See also the variable
  `org-agenda-tags-todo-honor-ignore-options' if you want to make his
  option also apply to the tags-todo list.
