I'm forever clicking the reorder 123 button on the Ladder screen to order the ladder in order of favouritism.
Is it possible to make this the default situation rather than having to keep clicking the reorder button?

Enter Enter, it becomes automatic if you're always doing it, not a solution but defo a quicker habit.

Does that mean there isn't a way of doing this and not sure what you mean by Enter Enter.

Is it wise to re-order the ladders automatically? It's like auto-scrolling, handy if you're just watching but can be costly if you're about to click to place a bet when it re-orders, in this case would involve placing a bet on the wrong selection, as well as the wrong part of the ladder.

I also reorder the ladders a lot.

I use keyboard shortcuts - do just pressing C centres the ladders and R reorders them in ascending price.

Keyboard shortcuts are good - u create a profile under settings

Search the forum etc

I would have thought it is absolutely necessary that the ladders are automatically ordered left to right in order of favouritism when trading. Why cant there be an option to automatically re-order or not.?

Would be interesting to see how many people would prefer the ladders to automatically re-order in order of favouritism.?

Personally I couldn't think of anything worse because most of my entries are servant context, the last thing I would want is the ladders to adjust as I press my shortcut key on a selection the mouse is hovered over.

I swear I've been pressing Enter Enter for as long as I can remember to set the ladders in order of favouritism... now it doesn't appear to work. What have I been doing all this time. I've officially lost the damn plot.

That's your opinion which I respect. Everybody has different styles of trading.

The logical thing would be to have the ladders constantly in order of favouritism.

Also, I do in-play trading where I trade the favourite. In order to do this I have to make sure that the first ladder is the favourite and in order to do this I have constantly hit the re-order button..

Horses for course ay but its irrelevant who does or doesn't want it, especially if it was an option like the auto centre.

Please stick to the title of the post !!!

I am not talking about the option of auto centre.

I am asking for the option of Auto Ladder Reorder. Like putting a cross X over the button
