Greening up / Hedging up / Cashing out all mean the same and is just the terminology for spreading a profit or loss equally across all selectionsrobinG wrote: ↑Wed Sep 20, 2017 5:39 amThank you Dallas for your patience with my questions but I am confused by your last answer saying you would green for a loss. I thought green means profit and that a loss would mean not greening so how is this possible?
However I am interested in how you could maximise your profit by changing the delay, how would you go about testing the best delay to use?
So you could be looking at a loss and 'green up' and that just spreads that loss equally the same as it would if you were in profit.
If you watch a few matches on the ladder screen straight after a goal you'll see all the money disappear then slowly start appearing again, if you observe the time that it takes for the gap between the back any lay money offered to close and to when bets actually start matching that will give you the approx time you should be using as a delay
Without the delay assume you lay pre match at 3.5 following a goal the only money available to green up against (or back) is sitting around 1.3 meaning you will have a big loss taking this price (as you will of layed at 3.5 and backed much lower at 1.3), where as once people begin adding their orders and the marker starts to reform with the ladder filling up the price might settle around 5.0 allowing you to green up at these odds for a decent profit.
