I hope someone can help. I was watching a video on YOU Tube and Peter Webb was talking about Fill or Kill. He stated that you use fill or kill when the odds are marked as reverse. Why?

When using normal odds on the one-click screen you are taking the best price avaliable so their is no need to use fill or kill - where as the reverse odds are where your offering a price to the market so you may want it killing if not filled within a certain amount of time.

For further details on normal/reverse odds see this thread

Hi Dallas thanks for the response to my enquiry. I appear to be getting a bit confused as I was Using Other software and the Lay column was always on the left. I know I can reverse them here on Bet Angel but it does look strange. Is it just personal preference as to which way you set up the ladders.

Yes its a personal preference on the ladder as a price can be offered or taken using either odds display, on the one-click screens its only one or the other so the odds view you use would be dependant on if your wanting to offer or take a price.
