Actually....come to think of it... I spotted a string of something like 0.5 bets being placed in the market scalping ladder. Perhaps trying to influence prices???. Hmm how interesting

If back jumps from 2.5 (£500+ vol) to 2.65  (0.5p vol) simply because someone put a 5p bet placement there, giving better odds position, then that might be something.

Probably it's just unmatched portions.
For example someone places £2.3 that meets £2 from other side and 0.3 left unmatched.

Hi tim i disagree i have been using the software since it began and its only since paddy power took over this is happening, im sure these bets are being put in to influence the book percentage to stop profitable systems,i have had to stop using my trigger unless i turn off use small bets as i have been getting lots of bets layed at .01 p which is hopeless for me,today is worse than ever especially on the irish horse racing, the strange thing is that on the betfair website these small bets dont show up, its only on market feeder even though i have show prices exactly the same as betfair ticked, colin
