Hello all,
I've read some conflicting figures, so I just thought I'd take a quick straw poll. What would be a good general figure to use for minimum liquidity if I was looking to set up automated trades during service games in Tennis?
I've set £300k as a minimum figure at present, but I'm wondering if this is acceptable.
Thanks

Never quite understood why people get so hooked up on previous traded amounts, I generally look at the amounts available and how tight the book is as to whether a market's tradeable for me.
I don't do automation but I guess, the book could be momentarily tight which would trigger your automation but from point to point there might be bigger spreads.spreadbetting wrote: ↑Tue Jun 19, 2018 11:58 amNever quite understood why people get so hooked up on previous traded amounts, I generally look at the amounts available and how tight the book is as to whether a market's tradeable for me.

Tennis can be gappy especially on the underdog.
I go with the following:
- Favourite only
- Market Volume > £100k
But it really depends on who is playing who.
