    Precise order placing

    I'm currently using LIMIT to place my back orders but I've noticed on my account summary page they're coming back with different, often quite different average match odds.

    At the moment I'm only placing back bets so it's actually working for me but I'm going to dabble with actual trading so I need them to be a bit more precise if I'm going to lay the same horse?

    Is there any way to fix this?

    Thanks,
    Simon

    Why you worry about average matching odds? If you place back for let's say 1.8, then it means that you want back the player/team not below 1.8. If prices are shifted up/down, then your bet is either matched at BETTER price or stay unmatched. Betfair always match bet at best price.

    This stuff should be learned in first days trading on Betfair, that's the most basic stuff

      I thought that was probably the case but I've been doing so much reading plus other stuff it's a little muddled. Plus this heat in the uk ATM!

      I assume it follows the same happens in the other direction with laying?
