never noticed it before, but they arent right.
just placed a £1,000 bet on a market, yes its completely matched. the matched thing at the top says matched: GBP 1,908
as we know, a bet counts twice for matched purposes. so how can there only be 1,908 matched when ive had a 1,000 bet myself?

my 1,000 was matched at 1.40 yet even on the graph it says only 1,829 has been matched in total at 1.40 
Maybe it threw some of it at a cross matcher and it appeared there on some other line?

Crossmatched money is indeed calculated differently. If you bet £1,000 on one side of the market and all of it is actually crossmatched, it will only show £1,000 on the side you bet, and the rest will be appropriately calculated on the other side. Obviously, if some is cross matched, then the calculations will be done as appropriately to what was matched where.
When you think about it it all makes sense.
Money listed = money traded this line (back) + money traded this line (lay), so in simple case was always x2.
But now it might go:
Money Listed = Money traded this line (back) + (money traded this line (lay) WHICH is 0-100% of back).
then on other lines the money traded to match the back would appear.
If it didn't do it this way, then you'd get extra amounts, the TOTAL amount matched across all markets would end up larger than the amount actually matched as money would appear twice. See? Anyway to me it makes sense.
