Only those with the best chance will buck the lengthening trend in which case those lengthening will have to lengthen further. Herein lies the dilemna- how to pick the shortening ones and get better odds before they shorten to the point of negative return.
Beton, that's an interesting question you raise(if I have read it correctly!). What is your best guess / stab at an answer, If I may ask?

I have been looking at this very subject of late and come to the conclusion that dutch betting a small subset of firmers or those level at open or within + x% tolerance might do the trick. I have also been experimenting with 1 or 2 filters to narrow the list down i.e. narrowing the field down initially as per PP price and eliminating weaker selections from the end shortlist.
