Since I logged on today - the odds/liquidity in the back and lay columns are flashing. It only happens when switching between markets. Ive gone through the settings and Ive got the box unticked for highlighting when odds change - So i cant see why its still happening.

Anyone else experiencing this?? or got any ideas to stop it.

cheers

Ask them about it and they'll say.. "What flashing?? Anyway have you used the app?? Try the sportsbook"

I sent Botfair an email and got this reply. The customer service never have a clue about anything.


Thanks for getting in touch.

Unfortunately we can't change this, because the odds flash as the fluidity of the market changes.

We are sorry for the inconvenience.

Let me know if there’s anything else I can help with. Or maybe our FAQs will come in handy?

Thanks,

Cristina

They can turn it off. All the API's have the odds flashing option. A simple tick box turns it on or off so can't see why
Betfair can't do the same.

Yes but if you flick through a football match with 100+ sub markets, all you get is constant flashing. It's unbearable.

Not the point Percy

If summats wrong then it should be fixed !!
Report bettinghelp • July 12, 2016 8:13 PM BST
I think I've spotted something - I've just clicked through about 20 of tonight's later races and it flashed on about 2 out of 3 markets. I tried again and noticed that flashing happens when there's just a tiny delay in the market loading. The non-flashers seemed to load a fraction faster - almost instanteously.

Anyone care to try?

Yes flicked through a load of tomorrows markets and the colour flash seems to have gone ........ for now

GONE.

Coincidentally as they have introduced a NEW FEATURE? - 'Pin'

Cannot recall seeing that there, before, - Always thought the Tick 'Betfair SP' Box Option was Top Left of Market Frame.

Anybody confirm it's NEWness - or am, I imagining this scenario?

Report pablo-fanque • July 13, 2016 2:48 PM BST
We're pleased to announce two new features on the Exchange which will be beneficial to golf customers ahead of The Open.

Pins
This new feature allows you to pin selections to the top of the market view. You will no longer have to endlessly scroll to find the selections you are interested in. To use this functionality press the Pin button above the market view and then add the selections you like to the top of the market using the (+) button. You can remove selections you are no longer interested in using the (–) button. This product is available on all outright markets and horse racing where there are more than 4 selections. Please note this is only available on desktop at the moment but will follow shortly on mobile (early next week worst case).

E/W Markets
We now offer Each Way markets on golf. As with your normal E/W bets on a sportsbook half your stake is placed on the selection winning and the other half on the selection placing. Your P&L is shown inline next to each selection. The first figure shows the result if the selection wins, the second if it places and the third if unplaced.

Thanks - pablo-fanque.

You would think that BETFAIR would PUT that ANNOUNCEMENT, permanently at the TOP of the HORSE RACING FORUM.... as it affects larger field races.

It IS at the Head of the GOLF Forum - But NOT even on 'SERVICE' Forum. Cry
