Laser247 Pro: The Advanced Exchange View, the Price Ladder, One-Click Betting and Position Management
Laser247 Pro is an alternative view of the betting exchange for users who trade markets rather than place single bets. It shows the full price ladder with the money available at each price, lets you place and cancel bets from the ladder, shows your net position on every outcome as prices move, and calculates cash-out for every open position. It uses the same Laser247 ID, wallet and commission as the standard view; you switch between them in the market header. This page explains each part of the Pro view and how to use it without the mistakes that fast tools make easy. Laser247 is operated by Sports Target B.V. and is for adults aged 18 and over only. Last reviewed 22 October 2026.

Reading the price ladder
The ladder is a vertical list of every price on the exchange’s tick scale for one outcome. Money waiting to back sits on one side, money waiting to lay on the other, and the gap between the best back and best lay price is the spread.
| Back money available | Price | Lay money available |
| 1.92 | ₹42,000 | |
| 1.91 | ₹18,500 | |
| 1.90 | ₹6,200 (best lay) | |
| ₹9,800 (best back) | 1.89 | |
| ₹27,000 | 1.88 | |
| ₹51,000 | 1.87 |
The figures are an example. What the ladder tells you:
- The spread. Here one tick (1.89 to 1.90): a liquid market. A wide spread means taking the best price costs you; an unmatched bet inside the spread may be better.
- Depth. ₹6,200 is waiting at 1.90. A ₹20,000 back at 1.90 would match ₹6,200 immediately and the rest would wait or need a worse price.
- Pressure. Much more money waiting on one side often means the price is about to move away from it, but it can also be withdrawn in a second; it is information, not a signal.
Tick sizes grow with the price: 0.01 up to 2.00, 0.02 up to 3.00, 0.05 up to 4.00, and so on. The full tick table is on the exchange and sportsbook page.
One-click betting and its safeguards
With one-click on, clicking a price on the ladder places a bet at that price for your preset stake, with no bet slip. It is the fastest way to trade and the easiest way to place a bet you did not mean to.
| Safeguard | Why to use it |
| Keep one-click off until you know the ladder | The bet slip is the check that one-click removes |
| Set a small default stake | A mis-click at a small stake is a small mistake |
| Check which column is back and which is lay | Clicking the wrong side opens the opposite position, with a liability |
| Turn on stake confirmation for large bets, where offered | Restores a check above the amount you choose |
| Review unmatched bets after every wicket, goal or break of serve | A one-click order left on the ladder can match at a price that no longer makes sense |
The in-play bet delay applies in Pro exactly as in the standard view: a bet is held for a few seconds before reaching the market, and is rejected if the market suspends in that time.
Net position and the cash-out calculator
Pro shows, next to every outcome, what you win or lose if that outcome happens, counting all your matched bets in the market. It updates as prices move, and shows the effect of a bet before you place it.
| Your bets | If India win | If New Zealand win |
| Back India ₹5,000 at 1.90 | +₹4,500 | −₹5,000 |
| Then lay India ₹6,552 at 1.45 | −₹2,948 | +₹6,552 |
| Net position | +₹1,552 | +₹1,552 |
The cash-out calculator does the second line for you. For any price you choose, it shows the stake needed to close the position and the result locked in either way: closing stake = back stake × back price ÷ lay price. It also handles partial closes, such as locking in half the profit and leaving the rest running. Commission is charged once on the net winnings of the market, not on each leg.

Position sizing for traders
Faster tools make it easier to bet more often, so a sizing rule matters more in Pro than in the standard view. A simple and robust one:
- Fix a trading bankroll separate from everything else, and never top it up mid-session.
- Risk 1 to 2% of it per market. On a ₹50,000 bankroll that is ₹500 to ₹1,000 at risk, counting lay liability, not stake.
- Set a session loss limit of, for example, 5% of the bankroll, and stop when it is reached.
- Decide the exit before the entry: the price at which you take the profit and the price at which you close the loss.
| Bankroll | 1% per market | 2% per market | Example session stop (5%) |
| ₹10,000 | ₹100 | ₹200 | ₹500 |
| ₹50,000 | ₹500 | ₹1,000 | ₹2,500 |
| ₹1,00,000 | ₹1,000 | ₹2,000 | ₹5,000 |
Formulas such as the Kelly criterion size bets by an estimated edge; an estimate of edge that is even slightly wrong produces stakes that are far too large, so fractional, fixed-percentage sizing is the safer default.
How to switch on Pro
- Log in on a desktop or laptop. Pro works on a phone, but the full ladder is easiest to read on a larger screen. No ID yet? See the register page.
- Open any exchange market. Choose Exchange, then a sport and a match.
- Switch to Pro in the market header. The market reloads in the ladder view with your existing bets and position.
- Set your preferences before betting. Open the settings icon: keep one-click off at first, set small preset stakes and turn on large-stake confirmation.
- Place a first bet from the bet slip. Use the bet slip for your first few Pro bets, then try one-click at a small stake.
Switch back to the standard view from the same header at any time; nothing about your bets changes.
Speed, volume and limits
Pro is built for speed, and speed is how betting volume grows without being noticed. Before a trading session, decide the number of markets, the maximum at risk and the time you will stop, and set a deposit limit, a loss limit and a session reminder under Account, then Responsible Gaming; they apply immediately. A lower Club commission rate is worth having on the trading you would do anyway, never a reason to trade more; see the Club page. Free help is available in India from Tele-MANAS on 14416, the Vandrevala Foundation on +91 9999 666 555 and iCall on +91 9152987821; the responsible gaming page has the warning signs. Laser247 is for adults aged 18 and over only.
