Hi guys,
Not sure if I'm missing anything here but opened a pre match trade on tonight football match Middlesbrough v West Brom.
Got my back bet matched at 2.58 and lay went in at 2.56. I would have expected my lay bet to be matched when traded amount reached 6.2k at 2.56.
Traded amount has reached 6.7k and I was still waiting to be matched. This has happened to me numerous times before. What am I missing?
Waiting to get matched totals

The traded volume column counts both sides of the book so using your image if your £100 was behind the £824 lay money then the traded volume would need to reach £6.8 before your money got to the front
£824 x 2 = £1648
£1648 + £5.2k = £6.8k
So it looks like another £50 back and lay money will make the traded column £6800 by which time there will be £126 left on the lay side so your right near the front.
That's in an ideal world but you then have to factor in cross-matching and in football matches cross-market cross matching
£824 x 2 = £1648
£1648 + £5.2k = £6.8k

Ah right. Started getting matched at £6.8k. Thanks Dallas.
Have you got cross-matching switched on to display BF's 'virtual bets' that might also have been in the queue in addition to the £800 that was in front of you before you added your £100 to it?
Not that I rule out completely that there might be slimey queue jumping shenanigens in operation to prioritize orders for sportsbook and internal trading.

If you're right Dallas - and I'm not suggesting otherwise - does this mean that a £2 match bet gets reported as £8 of volume if it is matched across markets? ie as £4 in one and £4 in the other.Dallas wrote: ↑Fri Aug 24, 2018 12:04 pmThe traded volume column counts both sides of the book so using your image if your £100 was behind the £824 lay money then the traded volume would need to reach £6.8 before your money got to the front

No, it only shows up the once on whichever selection its matched onJukebox wrote: ↑Fri Aug 24, 2018 12:29 pmIf you're right Dallas - and I'm not suggesting otherwise - does this mean that a £2 match bet gets reported as £8 of volume if it is matched across markets? ie as £4 in one and £4 in the other.Dallas wrote: ↑Fri Aug 24, 2018 12:04 pmThe traded volume column counts both sides of the book so using your image if your £100 was behind the £824 lay money then the traded volume would need to reach £6.8 before your money got to the front

ie, someone might place a £1k back order on the OP selection at 2.56 but instead of taking his money and the other waiting lay money at those odds it cross matches (takes money from another selection) and matches it on this market/ladder
So the traded vol increases by £2k but the OP still hasn't been matched because there was money ahead of him on another market which has now been matched on this selection
