Market Overview Screen
The Market Overview screen on Bet Angel is an indispensable feature that has been integral to the software since its inception.
Over the years, we have continually tweaked and refined this tool, ensuring it meets the evolving needs of our users.

Main panel
The Market Overview can be displayed as either ‘Panes’ in a single window or in ‘Tabs’ were each of the three elements can be displayed in it’s own window.
Displaying as ‘Tabs’ the overview screen is split into three area’s, ‘Grid’, ‘Chart’ and ‘Information’, you can select which of these you wish to view using the tabs in the bottom left corner of the window.
The market sync option let’s you configure which market is displayed on the Market Overview screen. You can sync with a mouseover as well.

Risk Meter
On the bottom right-hand side here we have the Risk Meter.
This is looking in the market and telling you how volatile that is. It can do this exclusively for Racing and measures volailty by market type. It’s looking at each market and how it’s traded before and measuring how volatile the market is compared to similar markets in the past.
In this sense a handicap can be as volatile as a maiden, but only in relation to other races in that category. I.e. a volatile handicap, or a volatile maiden.
If it’s over in the red it’s saying the market’s very volatile, if over in the green, it’s saying it’s quite stable when you can see the yellow area here it’s saying this market is behaving pretty much as we expect. The risk meter is just giving you a view on the market and looking at how it is behaving based upon these types of markets historically, so that should prove useful.
Extensive Customisation Options
Bet Angel’s Market Overview Screen is highly customisable, allowing you to tailor the interface to meet your specific needs. Here are some key customisation options:
