It went IP early, then I think they suspended and reversed the IP phase.

Quite a miserable start for me. There's been a few money making swings but I haven't been able to get on one.

£15 traded at 1000 on Ask Katie why do they do it?????? Why would you risk a £1000 to win a £1? I just can't get my head around it. :lol: Ok it doesn't happen that often, but if it does come in you're fked.

I reckon people do it until they get bitten. Then they stop and get replaced by a new wave of 50p takers.

Or perhaps people lose £1000 and try to get it back in 50 pence pieces. :lol:

From my database 684,254 runners traded at 1000 in play 518 won, you could get a best selling trading ebook out of figures like those. Also remember the people laying those on a regular basis will be picking up alsorts of stragglers at various price on the way up so bare figures never show the true picture.

I think that you would be better off using the £1000 backing at 1.01. I'm sure I looked at the stats of that ages ago just to see how many hit 1.01 and lost. Out of about one million races there wasn't many. How many are there in your database for that? I agree with you though in that we don't know the full picture of what they're doing and it might be profitable, but It's not a strategy that I would use.

A rare computer glitch before the 13:15 saw a green position turn red in the time it took me to reboot, as Wild Impala drifted. :(
