just traded the fav pure line on the first at lingers. went off second , and the second fav dreamlike, went of fav.
i found them to be easy to trade, nice and smooth, easy to read. pure line drifted nicely and dreamlike came nicely in. almost mirror images.
i thought i would have a look at the risk meter and it showed this market as right bang next to 100 in the red.
what is this measuring?
the market (in my opinion) was very stable for a class5 1 mile maiden on the all weather ( i normally dont trade maidens on the all weather). the 1st and 2nd in the betting were very stable, the rest of the field seemed very stable (alhough i paid little attention to the rest of the field).
to me this did not seem to be a volatile/jumpy market or even a RISKY market. why did the risk meter show it as a max red risky market?
first at lingers and risk meter
It's measuring volatility, so a volatile market is considered a 'risky' market. Though that doesn't mean you can't trade it, just that it will trade differently from a market with a low rating.
Bet Angel takes data from the market and compares it to a 100,000's of other races and measures if it looks similar or is moving around more. So a score of 100 would put it right on the edge of the right hand side of the bell curve.
It gives you an objective measure from one market to another rather than a guess.
