I think I've spotted a bug in this feature that reports the wrong value. I reconcile my accounts weekly and noticed this week a difference in values, which I think is due to withdrawals.

If I can replicate it, I'll let the forum know.
It looks like they're still trying to get it right.

I have always got this response when I access that URL

I hardly ever look at my profit & loss page anymore. The graphs are much more pleasant on the eyes. :D

As a matter of interest, is there anyone on here that's had a Betfair account for less than a year? Do you still get a 12-month graph?

I've been using Betfair since November. A 12-month graph is available for me, although it's not very exciting. The axis shows January-September with no activity.

My account isn't strictly new, however. It was opened in 2001 or thereabouts. I had a bit of a 20-year break there! ;)

I've worked out what this is now. It's when you transfer money from one wallet to another.

It treats the transferred amount as a profit or loss.

You've just told all the charlatans out there how to fake profits on Betfair. :)

Select 'Exchange' from the 'Activity' drop-down menu for correct figures.

Betfair have seemingly rolled out a new way of visualizing your P&L including for 12 months now.
Indeed. I highlighted this when I found it on my account a couple weeks ago. It provides a nice chart IMO.
