How much money would I have made?

[matth1997]

I just downloaded Bet Angel 30 mins ago so go easy on me but I was on the practice mode trying to find my way around things and put a 'lay the field' bet on Chester horse race at 15:45 I think it was and in the trade profit margin for one of the horses it said £1445 and £140 in another but in the profit and loss column said £6.00 for most horses and £0.00 for a couple this a picture of different race but was similar, surely the £1445 wasn't what I potentially could of had if I was using real money as I was using £2 stakes on odds at 3.0. Would really appreciate if someone could explain what the two different columns mean. Thanks

I can see your email address, I would crop it.

In short you win or lose the amount shown under the selections name that wins the race, the figures you see in the trade column is is what you would win if you close your trade at the current odds and that selection then comes back to win

So if you closed the trade on mister whitaker by clicking on the £196 figure this amount would then appear below his name and £2.00 would appear below the names of the other selections.

Meaning you would now win £196 if mister whitaker come back and won (rather than lose -£2)
and you would now only win £2 if any of the other selections won (rather than £4)

Have a read of this thread which also has some links to some tutorial videos which should help you understand how it all works

Cheers Linus didn't notice that and thanks for taking the time to explain Dallas it was really helpful.
