Hi

I'm really struggling with these 2 and very grateful if anyone can help.

1, Open positions - is there somewhere that I can see what I have open that's been matched?

2, Greening up - I want to use the green up feature so I don't have to get the calculator out when closing positions however is there a way of greening up an open position at a lower price to ensure I get matched? eg Let's say I've back over 2.5 goals at 1.80 and then there's a goal and the price is 1.25. Can I place a green up trade to exit the market at, say 1.30, to ensure getting matched, as often I press green up and I'm left unmatched as the price drifts out.

Many thanks

Paul

Welcome to the forum.

You can view matched bets by market in the 'Matched bets' tab. If you add markets to Guardian and a Watch List you can quickly switch between markets to see what has been matched in each. There is no one area that lists bets matched across every market in the entire exchange.

There are several ways of greening up along the lines you wish. I would look at the greening column in the ladder and also the trade profit calculators to start with (the 1,2 & 3 buttons towards the top right).
