im using the trial which will never give you a partial fill so i have no experience with them.

If i lay £200 at 7.8 and get a partial fill, what happens when i try to close my position at 8.0? will betangel try to match my partial fill or will it try to place an order with £200?

I assume you mean practice mode?

The green up figure shown will only be from whats been matched, any unmatched amount will be cancelled

My question wasnt clear, let me rephrase. When i lay £200 at 7.8 and get a partial fill, if i want to back and 8.0 what will happen? will it back with a stake equal to the partial fill or will it try to back £200?.

If your placing a back bet it will use whatever stake you have selected inc your net stake, if your greening up then its as above and only whats already been matched

If you wanted to close with the exact same stake before greening up you can select "net stake" which will give you the exact amount that was matched. Alternatively, If you click on the profit/loss column it will also place your closing bet in the queue for the right amount.

Net stake is explained here and it is a very useful tool.
