Hi Folks, quick question:
I'm running technical indicators on GB horse races to tune a trend bot. Thing is, my graphs are screwed up by the application of the adjustment factor on a scratched selection in the market.
So I want to "reconcile" my bot's db to align with BF's corrected prices, so pre-scratched data agrees with post-scratched data for every market.
However, all I can find is that if a horse is priced at 8, with a 25% reduction factor ... the price will reduce to 6.
Sure, eight minus a quarter of eight is six, I get that bit -- but what if the price was 2, and the RF was 25%?
Basically, should the RF use "ticks" or does the RF calculated by BF already have factored into it the size of the ticks at that particular price?
My "price units" in my db are the_tick. Do I need to convert them back to decimal odds and then multiply by the RF to emulate BF's calculation?
Any leads would be great! Cheers.
