I've got a quick question if anybody can help please?

The larger prices get, the larger the increments become on the Betfair user interface.  For example prices at the range of 4.0 - 5.0 increase in increments of .1 whereas the range 10.0 - 20.0 increase in increments of .5.

If the current price available to back is 10.0, if I offer 10.1 to lay via my API will this get matched at this price either the next time somebody backs 10.5 or via the cross matching bot or will it simply be taken at 10.5?

Thanks in advance.

Yes I understand the price wouldn't be accepted via the standard Betfair interface but via your own API you can be more specific with your prices.

Just got the answer.  You can't be more specific.  You have to take the increments Betfair offer  Cool
