I'd like to add a button via Custom Column to my one-click screen, which closes all open bets and greens up immediately (a bit like a panic / safety button). I've set up the "Cancel bets" button in Custom columns but that only cancel all unmatched bets and doesn't trade out. I am not sure if the button I want, makes a difference to just pressing the Green figure (in the trade profit column). For context I am referring to his setup https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UC0K88Q8osg (min 11:26min onwards - he calls it an OS button).

Many thanks

At 18m38s his screen shows a number of lay bets which then start to be taken. They appear to be for a variety of stakes at various odds.

This is perhaps how/where where my suggestion for a 'Ladder Green-Up Percentage Box' which can be seen at viewtopic.php?t=28213 could perhaps be used - to scale out of a position with greening at various odds for various stakes to hopefully maximise ones P&L.

If anyone likes my 'Ladder Green-Up Percentage Box' suggestion or has a variation on that theme, do please say or add a +1 to the suggestion so the developers can see there is interest for such a new feature. Thank you.

This sounds like the 'trade profit' button that already exists on the one-click screen. Make sure you also have the 'green' checkbox ticked and then clicking this box on any selection will cancel any unmatched bets and green up on all selections leaving you with around the same profit or loss no matter which selection wins.

HEALTH WARNING for if you intend to use this on in-play markets... Be aware that if you do this in-play then you need to wait for the Betfair betting delay to pass before the requested greening bets hit the market. This means that some bets might not match if the price moves in this time. Make sure you don't click more than once during the bet delay period or you end up with multiple duplicate triggers and things can get nasty.

If you have the green box ticked above the 'Trade Profit' column then clicking on a figure in that column (any figure) will cancel all unmatched bets and green up

If you are wanting to green up individual selections or at the reverse price/s there is an example here with a number of custom columns offering different greening options

The Customs Columns shown above with/without greening are very useful - an excellent layout! Thank you Dallas!
