Betfair chart / Betfair graph of the day
That last one is a mistake I almost made years ago, but thankfully I had the confirm bets window ticked.
I was trying to place some money on footy market at odds of 24, but entered 2.4 instead.
I'm not saying that was the mistake made on your chart, but looks like it

You beat me to it Peter
I posted an image of this runner two days ago (on Sat the 15/09/12) when it drifted really big. The same thing happened today.
The instant I saw this runner's name alarm bells rang in my head and I wondered if history would repeat itself. But early on it steamed 6 ticks and I thought, Ok now that confirms a less that 50% probability that it will drift. So I gave up the idea of looking for a drift.
Then the drift started at high 3's I was still less than 50% sure if it would drift. Then it hit early 4's and I thought should I lay it now? But wait, what if it turns around suddenly? So I did nothing.
Then it reached 5 and I resisted the temptation of following the crowd's wisdom. The last thing I wanted to do was chase the price.
Then it crossed 6 and I thought, Gee whiz, what was it that I failed to recognize about this drift. Trades like this don't come around often. I was there waiting for it, and all I did was watch the entire move happen with a gaping mouth. It was the most volatile runner of the day.
