I know you can use Guardian to save markets that you might want to get involved in and this works great however I sometimes have 60 markets up and running but I am only involved in a few. I also have long running bets on such as Golf which I might keep for a few days before trading out of and because I do the football mainly I do not really want to see my 20 golf trades that I have no interest in for a few days, its just screen clutter to me as I like to just see what I have active for that day.
There is an app for the iPhone/iPad called iBetMate which is great (not as good a BA obviously). What I like about iBetMate is that you can log in and select an option called current bets and it show you JUST the markets and bets you have currently ON (matched or not).
My suggestion is therefore it be great if we could have this as a new TAB in Guardian. You have select/search/quick pics/soccer so idea would be another tab "current bets" you click on this tab and you see your current bets that have not settled yet or it could be just a filter drop down list perhaps at top of screen in Guardian intsead of a tab page but hopefully you get the idea.
This would be so handy I use the current bets option all the time in iBetMate as it saves me re-searching the markets again and remembering what bets I actually did (sometimes happens).

Correct BF has the current bet functionality. I just think it would just be nice however if BA also had this as it would allow you to instantly see what positions you have open. I know this can be "sort" of done in Guardian by clicking on Unmatched bets and then it sort all the unmatched bets to top of screen but then you have repeat the process again for matched bets i.e. its a two step process. What I like to do is start each day with a clean sheet, load the markets I might be interest in and then place the trades and it would be beneficial if BA had a button you press that said show me my open positions (matched or not) so your only see what your involved in saving mistakes with having to remove markets from Guardian manually which is the case now. Again its just a nice to have but probably be useful.
