In reverse ladder settings, what bars on the traded volume section shows if a horse is being backed more or layed more. Can you tell? By watching the growing traded volume. I'm talking about the bars next to the current price either back or lay.

Thanks.

Half the traded amount at a price is back money, the other half is lay money

Yes I know that. But I saw a video of Peter Webb talking about the the traded amount bars, and he was particularly interested in and hoping that the amount would rise on one of the bars opposed to the other because of the direction he was predicting the odds would move.

So I mean if the traded amount is rising more on the best back price, would this imply that there more lay money being placed.?

Assuming you mean the recently traded amounts then it would imply the price is probably going to shorten as more back money is being placed and it's eating away at the waiting lay money
