The opposite of a market loser

There is a concept of being in the market window. For example gnu uses it under analyze -> market window. The window is defined by two values. The lower one is the point at which you would double in a last roll situation. The higher is the cash point (which may or may not consider the opponent's recube power). For example losing 4a 3a and holding a 2 cube the window is approximately from 31% to 60%.

When you say you anti market loser you mean a sequence which makes it incorrect to cube (because not good enough). But one could still be in the market window. Someone at say 45% at 4a 3a with a two cube could be said to be in the market for cubing since it deserves consideration (and market loss must be looked at). But just becasue one is in the market for something does not mean the purchase must be made.

So I see some possible confusion. Since a market loser goes above the top value one might think that an anti market loser should mean that it goes below the lower value.
