One part of my selection criteria is:

If selections back_price < (100 / selections_volume_%) then enter a lay trade @ back_price + 1
if selections lay_price > (100 / selections_volume_%) then enter a back trade @ lay_price - 1

Obviously thats not the whole picture but not far off.
Intiruiging, I will certainly play around with that formula.... should I order my Ferrari yet? :)

Thanks also Goat, I have been following your comments for a few weeks (in the Shadows) but we are certainly kindred spirits in this respect. Great when folks are generously helping out like this - Heart-warming!

Slowly increasing stakes on my bot, I can't imagine these markets taking much. What stake size can I look forward to to get matched in the last 3mins in these?

Depends on selection you're trying to get onto. I do value lay bets and no issue getting £30-50 on last 30 seconds (as a note max I'm laying up to is 6's).

Interesting, this is an avenue I've often explored, but tended to get more or less 50/50 return. Spun a few different theories but can't say I ever really cracked it. HOWEVER thanks to some new data may be worth another visit.
Can I be so bold as to enquire if you are finding a modicum of success?

Yes, make about 25 points roughly on average per month laying by liability

not a punter, so if your laying by liability what would be a point, as your stake would vary depending on the odds? thanks
