    what is the best way to analyze line moves? I am using oddsportal and the graphs from betfair... is there any other good option?
    Are you doing that manually? BTW if you are watching Pinny odds changes at OP, many movements are missing, because of slow sampling. So if you see a change 2.00-1.91 at OP, it can actually be 2.00-1.97-1.94-1.91.

    If you knew any of the clowns that price up their markets you would retract your post. The place is a circus with a revoving door where new clowns come and go, they're considered a joke in the industry.

    The easiest way is to store values from Pinnacle XML feed every 30s into MySQL database.

    Do you know if I can get open & close prices archived somewhere without having to parse them myself?

    I know that, I use sbr or oddsportal to look at them but I was wondering if they can be found archived like the data in csv format from http://www.football-data.co.uk/.
