What is reverse greening?

Modified on Sun, 23 Apr 2023 at 12:18 PM

Reverse Greening means instead of using the current market price to green up and exit your trade by taking the price offered instead your offering it to the market at the best reverse price to try and exit your position by waiting for someone to take it.

This can increase profits especially in illiquid markets where there are gaps between the back and lay price, however there is also an increased risk that it does not get matched and by the time you resubmit it you end up getting matched at a worse price than if you had just greened up in the normal way and taken the best price to start with.
