In-play prices are then generated from the GPS data by RMG’s pricing partner Pythia Sports and served to bookmakers via the Press Association.

I remember reading the article at the time. The in-house bots have been using GPS to make the market for many years, the problem with in-running now is that all the casual money has dried-up because they have been restricted by affordability checks or they have given up trying to compete against the GPS bots and the drones, leading to pathetic levels of liquidity.

i generally find it's more interesting to listen to what folk DON'T say as opposed to what they DO say...

james has just confirmed that.

There is some misinformation on this thread. This article about RMG is from a year ago.

Jamee certainly doesn't need any advice from me Hibby , was just commenting that if i knew everything he knew about this topic i'd not be posting on a public forum i'd be keeping it all to myself.

Call me selfish and just out for myself and you'd be 100% correct   Grin

Will add that GPS is not yet readily available on RMG tracks...


Sorry Hibs, it's been a little bit busy this afternoon, you may have noticed?

I stand by what I said, that GPS is not readily available on RMG tracks. To believe that RMG GPS bookmaker data is affecting Exchange prices you have to believe that either Betfair use it to play in their own markets, or that 3rd parties are getting hold of this data with a latency of less than 500m/s to beat the drone. To me this seems unlikely until it is being sold via API like TPD do with ARC track data today. But, of course, none of us really know, we just have a view. 

Either way, Swifty summarised it best for me, with a very pragmatic "It is what it is". At the end of the day it matters not what causes the prevailing conditions, but whether one can trade successfully within them.

Wink away Hibby. If you spent less of your time whinging and worrying how everyone else was doing you might pinch a few quid.

If you think it's all so corrupt then you wouldn't touch it. You'd be getting out that white flag you've been threatening to wave for what seems like an eternity.

what exactly does that mean? because you can't win , no one else should be able to? So long as Betfair advertise that other people/businesses may have advantages not available to Joe Punter, then bet at your own risk.

I'd be totally against pulling in-running even though i never get involved myself , it has to up to the individuals to realize the disadvantage or that they're crap at it and withdraw themselves.

I'd never penalize anyone for finding a way to win regardless of what others thought   Happy

Does Betfair actually advertise (meaningfully) that 'other people/businesses may have advantages not available to Joe Punter',

Pre-race traders rely on in-running for their model to work. And they may not even watch the race in-play. Why take that away because some people have been left behind by technology?
By:

When: 11 Apr 24 18:12
Jinxy, I'd agree, no not clearly enough, but anyone with an ounce of sense, would think how come I play the same way I used to when I won and now I'm losing, without smelling a rat?
Admittedly I knew for a fair while playing at the ARC tracks but thought I could buck the trend, but I saw the light.

maybe but then you get a scenario like today where the horse winning the bumper at Aintree in a million traded race only hit 1.01 for three k.

that doesnt sound like pre race traders relying on an in running model.

It sounds more like an in running model relying on in play traders.

all the 1.0X players can scrap it out among themselves, i'm talking about form students who trade, their trading done well before any 'unfair' advantages may kick in, or race readers (who know to get their business done early too)

On top of this, Pythia also has access to non-public data which are constantly being worked through in an attempt to develop high quality signals for exchange trading.

so does this data include live feedback from the horse as to how they're feeling in the race? Use your own eyes and don't leave it too late.

Hibby , it's an NDA between 2 parties with the intention of shafting people if possible!

But as I've said it's only data , it may influence live markets but trust it at your peril
