It's quite possible somebody laid at 200 by mistake. The bet would obviously have swept up all the money along the way so it may only have got as far as 90.

Chart of the day looks like changing from a nice summary of interesting stuff to pages and pages of Lucacrebbe's chat. :roll:

Another example of a big lay bet triggering a drift in the 18:55

Re: prev posting of Spring Romance chart.....some context rather than just another random line on a chart.

Typical cowboy software, my Price axis (red) didn't re-scale :)
But ....the green line is the interesting one. By my calculations the backers were putting so much more money down than the layers that it went off the bottom of my chart! First time in the last 170 races. The layers came back a little as we approached that strange Bermuda Triangle price called evens. Those flashing numbers on the ladder play an interesting tune sometimes.

Please don't ask for a copy of this .xlsm, as a refusal may offend ;) The many times it gets it wrong will certain offend :D It's very much work in progress.

I'm not just backfitting either.....my xlsm deploys a Guardian bot

3 decimal points on the graph, has it always been like this on the low faves?

Yes, for as far as I can remember. Obviously the scale is automatically generated but you would think Betfair could change this to make the scale more relevant.

Picking up on the BF charts generally, being event based rather than time based they always look more dramatic than they actually were. Those early spikes often evolve over an hour or two and the smoothing towards the end is often not much more than time dilation.

It might not have been designed that way for but it does make for a small psychological tweak to generate a higher level of 'excitement'. They'd certainly design it that way now, with these things being carfully studied, and is it a coincidence that the price line is red, the trigger colour?

Charts vs Time give a quite different view on things, especially in a nice drab colour :)

I always discount anything on the left of BF charts until the real money begins hitting the market, it then gives a much better picture.
I was assuming those last two charts from Derek were to show how flat the market was rather than a large had occurred move?
