Back book% Fluctuations

[cybernet69]

Hi,

I have noticed for a long time that on tennis matches the back book% will often fluctuate between 100 and 130.

Is there a reason for this ?

Would a good system be to offer lay bets into the market when it is >= 130 and then wait for the book to fluctuate back to near 100 and then green up ?

Any thoughts ?

Cheers.

130% books are usually 'in play'

This is because most of the activity is centred around the current favourite. The outsider's price is unlikely to get taken, unless they win the next point.

Why don't you try it and see what happens?

Let me know how you get on with this strategy. it would be of interest to me.

Yes, it was in-play, a mens double match.

The favourite pair back odds were fluctuating between 1.08 and 1.32. At that time the other pairs odds were fluctuating between 2.80 and 4.1.

Ironically, the favourite pair trading at 1.08 lost the match.

Seemed to be very strange goings on...
