"As you know, all in-play exchange bets are subject to a delay before hitting our markets. We
are currently scoping out a potential alteration to how passive bets are treated, whereby any
bet which would hit the exchange unmatched will skip the bet delay. We are hoping this will
offer an advantage to market makers across a wide range of sports. "
Should be good if they limit access to market makers

There's been quite a lot of chat about it on the Slack #general channel if you want to engage with that and find out more.
There's also a #askbetfairanything channel which is really useful for getting fast answers to queries.

Why would a trader care about bet delays for bets that aren't going to be matched within a few seconds?
Having markets that don't suspend spontaneously for 10 minutes or until a goal is scored would certainly bring traders back and increase volume!

It's an incentive to offer rather than taking to boost IP liquidity. Being able to get prices up comfortably ahead of the takers wanting to act would is the best development for years imo. And finally something equally befeficial to them and us. It's the start of quite a few improvements if the mood music is to be believed.
I'm still none the wiser. You may be able to get your orders in before the takers but they're not going to be taken because it's away from the LTP and you're not jumping any queues because other offerers will have no delay either.ShaunWhite wrote: ↑Fri Oct 29, 2021 10:22 pmIt's an incentive to offer rather than taking to boost IP liquidity.

It seems I've misunderstood it. I thought they were talking about offers away from the money but it says hitting the exchange unmatched. I'd welcome that.ShaunWhite wrote: ↑Fri Oct 29, 2021 10:22 pmIt's an incentive to offer rather than taking to boost IP liquidity.

I hope they at least trial it, I think it will be a good thing overall, and at least they are putting some thought into trying to attract more liquidity
They need to to make up for all the trader accounts they're closing!Dallas wrote: ↑Sat Oct 30, 2021 1:47 amThanks Peter,PeterLe wrote: ↑Fri Oct 29, 2021 9:16 pmDallas/All,

How/Why is adding liquidity an avenue for shady people to abuse the system ?
