New P&L screen rolling out today and heading to an account near you very soon (if not already).
Here are the problems I have so far:
1) As with the betting history screen changes from a couple of weeks back, you have lost the ability to choose which page to jump to so you have to scroll through dozens of pages one by one to get to the market you are looking for.
2) Seems to be a significant limit on the amount of data you can return in one date search. I searched for 13th to 19th (last week) and it only brought back 170 markets when I traded in over 1000.
3) The individual market screens now report the 'requested' odds and volume matched rather than the 'matched' odds.
4) I have seen examples of missing data. eg I now have one selection that apparently I managed to match at odds of 0.00
5) The country codes on horse racing and greyhounds (at least) have been removed so it is no longer possible to identify or sort by country unless you know all the tracks by heart and can manipulate a spreadsheet accordingly.
Why do BF spend time and effort fixing things that aren't broken while ignoring the things that are?

6) Can't open the results for a market in a new tab.
7) After selecting and viewing a market, the 'Back' button doesn't work.
8) Market bet info used to list Backs before Lays for each selection, now it's random.
9) The 'Get PL' button has gone for a walk to the right-hand edge of the screen rather than being handliy near the other inputs.
It's nearly as buggy as some of the spreadsheets and bots that get posted on here!

I've always clicked on the 'Horse Racing' link just above 'selection' to go back.ShaunWhite wrote: ↑Tue Jul 21, 2020 2:52 am7) After selecting and viewing a market, the 'Back' button doesn't work.

I only get the last 34 markets, no matter what date range I select.jameegray1 wrote: ↑Tue Jul 21, 2020 12:20 amNew P&L screen rolling out today and heading to an account near you very soon (if not already).

10) Time displayed is UK time (good for people in the UK), makes it hard for us in oz. (used to display for me in AEST).
Nup, I've got over 100 markets on most days, per week it should be over 700, but the max I can get is 33, so it's not rolling days. But, whatever it is, it is not good.
Edit: Update, mine also reducing - now down to 29 markets.
Edit: Update, Update: If memory serves me correct, something like this has happened at least once before. Hopefully they get it working properly again soon (like within 24 hours). Let's petition the roll back.
Echo all of the above. The amount of results returned seems to be based on bets traded. I can get a selection of results for roughly any two hour period but that's about my limit.
The removal of the country tag and the race information is a real problem for me. Aus Hrns v Aus Gallops, Aus GH v UK GH, Nov stakes v Mdn Stks v Hrd v Chs v Hcap all become a lot more work to split and identify. And yes I collate separate P+Ls by category of race.
I note in the latest Premium Charge newsletter they say :
"This rebuild has been undertaken with Premium customers in mind [Really!] with the high frequency trading that occurs on a said customers account, we are looking to collate feedback on this to ensure we get this right. Please contact your account manager or [email protected]"
Please email them if you haven't already.
