Your welcome, I am liking your site so far because it's simple and smooth, this is how it should be, nothing complicated. For example, I checked out Fairlay, and their site is very intimidating and complicated, even for an experienced trader. So, you can imagine how complicated it is for newcomers. A betting exchange should target all types of people, not only experienced traders.

I personally prefer unmanaged markets, although I can understand why some people might not like them as they feel vulnerable to broadcasting delays.

Yes, we think most exchange bettors prefer managed, but have seen a lot of chat over the years from people like yourself who would like unmanaged. Would be great to provide both but splitting liquidity is a non-starter.

We have some long term plans to bring in more recreational punters to Exbet (who just want to back, not interested in exchange), with a sportsbook-style overlay on top of the exchange liquidity (see some of our 2021 plans in the Exbet Xmas newsletter: https://mailchi.mp/642a8f7f87c5/exbet-newsletter-2020-review-nba-start).

Managed markets is likely necessary for that product/audience as well.

I also have another suggestion. It's a bit difficult to get to the other markets in football events. When you click on a football match, you are taken to the Match Odds market, but one has to click on top to navigate to other markets (Correct Score, goals etc.). They seem a bit hidden. It would be easier to have all the markets show on the left hand side so that they are visible to everyone.

Yes, it's a good idea that has been sitting on our product backlog for some time - just trying to prioritise the most important items amongst all the work ahead of us! We would expect to implement something similar to Betfair left menu which we think works well, but maybe keeping the current market dropdown as well. No promises on timeline for that.

Also another suggestion: it would be nice to have the option to view profit with the site commission included. This is very useful for traders who do arbitrage with other bookmakers too.

Nice suggestion. We will push the idea to our product guys.
