Hi as I'm a newbie here and loving the courses, I need someone to tell me how I can use the no kill application when I want to place a bet. When I navigate a price and click, it only shows that particular lay or back and not the other? I hope I'm making sense lols.

The page below should explain how it works. If you're using offsetting and want both, the back and lay to enter the market you clear the 'Place fill or kill bets' checkbox. If it's ticked then only your initial bet will hit the market. The offset will only appear after the first bet's been matched.

As far as I understand, you have experience in this. Let me ask you this. Is it worth actively using this tool or is it only needed occasionally? Excuse me as a beginner, I'm still figuring out the intricacies.

It's all personal preference and depends on the market you're trading. I never use fill or kill for pre-off racing. Always use it for football as you don't want a bet left in the market too long in case a goal goes against it.
