it may just be a rumour. but i've heard that the new update is literally a game changer. from what i hear, all horse races will have to now take into account the new In play trader actions. basically, you can now move the sliders during the race and the runners (via gps) will align to the formation that you've created. you simply then place your bets and then move the sliders to your required closing position. the initial rollout (which according to the email is limited to 2 users) looks to be very promising!!

can't wait...

This cannot be true as the GPS on horses is not currently set up and how could Mr Webb create and test a new update without months of back testing on a Racing platform that doesn't exsist. This is mis-direction.Now can we atleast have a release date.

At 13:00 hours I will tell the world what I think it is if we dont have a release date.

No release date was forth coming. So I will throw my hat into the ring with my suggestion.....(imagine James Bond walking into Miss Moneypenny's office and throwing it at the hat stand) ....here we go.

I think it is Multiple Offsets in Global.

Presently, you can only offset your opening trade once via number of ticks or a percentage of the opening price. I think the update could allow mulitple offsets so, example:

I lay Horse A at 2.00 for £100 - offsets are activated in £20 batches at predefinded stakes of £20 @ 2.5, 3.0 & 4.0 instead of the current sinlge offset option of 3.5 (example). This would offer you the opportunity to make a larger profit from the same risk if say your initial laybet was a £100 lay at 2.0. Discuss....your offsets could be at 5.0 7.0 & 10 if you wanted them.

The way we think about the product is how can we improve it to make your trading more effective and give you an edge against others.
You'll be able to get a popup showing Peter's screen in exchange for 50% of your profits...he's always talking about how his returns have peaked.

Or...Tournement Mode where you all ante up a pound per market and it's best return% takes all.
