It's great feedback, especially for new users, when they place a bet and it appears in an immediately visible spot.

Maybe the synthesis is any trades just placed appear below the bet buttons, but if you refresh, they are gone from there. And the main spot is in a Your Trades tab below.

I do have another entirely different UI suggestion topic: https://discord.com/channels/915138780216823849/1455645725315567637

Not sure if it will have a wide-reaching appeal to the masses, but it's certainly an upgrade if it were to happen.

It depends on how much of a power user you are. If you're a casual button-booper, then maybe we hide it, but I do personally like it prominently shown.

@Quroe back in the good old days, the "your trades" section was another tab next to comments. They moved it up higher in a misguided attempt to "show people what they bet on" even though:

  • Your share type and amount is already there

  • Vertical space is very important

  • The box where it is now covers up all the space making it hard to find the description and comment section

  • It doesn't actually show the data in a useful way

  • It takes up a ridiculous amount of space

  • NO ONE would find this box more important or interesting than the market description and comment section

@Eliza I think whatever method reduces friction most for newer users is the higher priority. I'm generally aligned with your views here.

One option for 'Other' is to have it totally hidden until you click something. But it just doesn't belong in this area at all. It covers up a huge amount of important real estate on the screen, preventing users from seeing the market description and comment section.

It was a mistake to put it there in the first place, it's still a mistake today.

@Traders this is an easy decision and you know how to vote, I don't even need to tell you. We can change the course of the site, TODAY!
