Would there be any chance that Bet Angel's charts could include the option to express odds in terms of percentage implied odds, rather than Betfair prices, please?

Hi Marc
I don't think you can bring up graphs showing precise changes in implied odds. I think you can get a graph based on Betfair's standard graph, but as the x axis of that chart isn't to scale, I don't use it much.

True, but it would be useful to do it pre-off.
There was a study a while back that showed that you could make a profit from backing steamers and laying drifters that met certain criteria (http://promo.betfair.com/tactemails/camb1a.htm). It would be interesting to see if that still holds.
BTW, the article says that: 'We classified a “drifter” as any horse whose implied percentage chance of winning decreased by 5% or more'.
That's incorrect. I know someone who's corresponded with the guy who carried out the study, and the correct figure is 50%. Ditto for steamers.
