Prediction Markets: Betfair Politics Zone

The Betfair Politics Zone has been updated to enable users to view graphs for all displayed markets, giving you unrivalled access to our election betting markets

To visit the zone go to http://politics.betfair.com

Betfair launched its new Politics Zone a couple of weeks ago and it has already gone through its first revamp. New features:

- You can now access graphs for all markets displayed in the zone, either in odds or % chance format

- Code is now supplied enabling users to embed these graphs into their own sites or blogs. These graphs update live every hour.

From this zone you can access all of the most active markets and have a view on multiple markets from one window. In addition, the new zone offers graphs of key markets that update in real time, giving you a new dimension when looking at market movements and adding a new analytical tool.

The Politics Zone also incorporates the following features:

Market View
See the most traded markets all on one screen and, at election time, you can find out about all the different markets that are offered.

Price Change Indicator
This feature enables you to quickly see when the odds in a market are changing.

Live and Constantly Updating Graphs
For the first time on Betfair we have incorporated a graphical look at a market into the site, with time-stamped graphs offering a new and exciting angle for market analysis. These data graphs can be enlarged by clicking on them, and are easily copied if you wish to paste them into blogs, etc.

Access to News and Analysis
The zone has a link to all the latest politics betting news and comment from betting.betfair.com.

Navigation
To navigate to the Politics Zone you can click on the link in the rules tab of any politics market or simply go to http://politics.betfair.com. The zone will open in a new window so that you can easily change between the zone and the Betfair markets individually.

Any comments, suggestions or feedback is always welcome. Please e-mail predictionmarkets@betfair.com with any thoughts.
