SMARKETS
Grateful for some help:
How can I set the odds I want instead of Smarkets automatically matching my bets at the best odds available at the time I make the bet ?
For instance, if Smarkets is showing 7 and I want 2 then Smarkets will automatically immediately match my bet at 7.
I want to offer odds of 2 and then wait until such time as the 2 odds are matched ( or not, as the case may be. )
I’ve made sure it is Time In Force and Keep In Play but it doesn’t make any difference.
I asked Smarkets about this and they replied that Smarkets will always give the best odds available at the time of making the bet.
Is there any way I can set the odds that I want and not the odds that Smarket wants me to have ?
Grateful for any comments. Thank you.

Both Smarkets and Betfair use best execution so you'll need to wait until the price is what you want before you place your offer if you want a worse price.
