Good evening,
I was just wondering what others favourite Setup for inplay trading.? I'm currently customising my one click screen and intend to lay to a liability with a tick offset. I haven't decided on any specific settings yet. Would appreciate any advice or suggestions.
Favourite Setup Tick offset etc?

Your question is impossible to answer (usefully) unless you provide all of the above - and even then, its tough.

Only the ladder view makes sense. You can flip your monitor vertically and stretch the ladder to display the whole price range at once. Keyboard shortcuts to quickly change stake sizes and cancel bets.
But probably better to manage your positions manually, not a fan of offsetting bets, hope you weren't inspired by watching Badgerr!

Personally I wouldn't use an offset, initially I'd be looking to make ONE small stakes value bet. And once that's been mastered then try to look for a second bet. That might be an opposing bet (aka a "trade") or might be a further bet of the same type. But whether a 2nd hedging bet is always at a specific offset is very unlikely.
The markets are such that when using a simple offset you'll pick up approx the same number of winning ticks as you'll lose when you don't get your second bet matched. That's why it's imperative that when you're in-running betting each one ought to be at value because you can never tell if you'll get a subsequent bets matched. In-running specialists are looking for prices that are wrong in the moment rather than looking for horses that will move X ticks one way or another, and by finding prices that are wrong they inherently carry more likelihood of a price correction which results in gaining a few ticks. Tick movements are a consequence of value betting not the objective of bets in their own right.
