Maybe this excessive greed is coming as a result of this covid/economic crisis.

Happens on the greyhounds too.

Big one on the Spurs v Man Utd game there, 0-0 backed into 1.18 while the score was 1-1.

Not as many as there used to be, it seems.

To some extent, we're probably less inclined to post them now as they're quite repetitive.

I'd be interested in hearing others view on the above flash crash. In my opinion Navinder Singh Sarao did nothing wrong - in fact if he managed to get automated bots to crash the price and he was able to exploit the crash by buying at a low price and selling a few minutes later at a much higher price, well done that man - I say fair play to him. All prices are artificial and manipulated anyway, so who knows what the 'correct' price of any stock really is.
