Hi,

The hugely enlightening posts by Mugsgame and Jollygreen on the Wolverehampton Favourites thread got me thinking about the strength of the markets. Is it possible to determine market strength just from the volume matched on Betfair or is there more too it than that?

Today, for example, Musselborough felt strong whereas Hexham felt weak and this coincided with a big difference in the amount matched at each course.

Thanks,

James

I tend to look at fill rate for determining weak or strong markets. Volatility and volume tend to be very consistent over time. So it's more how the market is acting that is more important for me.
