Apologies if this is already answered, I have searched the forum and the knowledge base but cannot find the answer to my question, so here goes.

I am trading on GB & Ire horse racing using the excel integration to Bet_Angel_1 (with a few of my own additions to place trades that I wish too). I leave the BetAngel Ladder in view and keep an eye on my overall 'green' position. If I reach an acceptable position to green out, I select the ladder window and click on the greening option (The amount shown in green next to the scales button).

The problem I am having is, that on several trades that I done today, the greening figure showed that I had made X (in this example £9.38 profit), however, when I went across to Betfair web site and checked my P&L and Betting History reports (and balance) it shows a lower profit of £6.38 for this trade. I do not understand why this is, can someone help please.

I would really appreciate help on this as its driving me mad, thanks in advance.

With horse racing happened several times to me, and the reason has always been that Betfair has applied a reduction on that race, so the payout is less than those predicted by bet angel.
The last few days ago ... I had lay a horse that had not participated in the race, but that had not been removed from the list of participants, rather than cancel the bet, you the low damage, excellent play warranted.
Either way it shows correctly the details of bets on the site, such as reduced payout.

Try to see if the same thing happened to you. ...

I did check that. There were three races today that this problem happened to, yet only one had reduction factors applied.

So it doesn't seem to be that.
