**Suggestion:** Add colored “Status” field into the “my orders” section of the market orders.  
**Keywords:** ui, market  
**Note:** reduce players and server wasted time

In addition to the previous suggestion - another good way to reduce players (and server) wasted time by drastical reduction of the “empty” checking of all of your orders one by one. Currently 90% of all situations when you use market orders list: is to find where you’ve been outbid and update this price. So here’s the solution:  
Into the Orders history tab of the market orders window there’s a colored column “status”:

Now all we need is just to add similiar column into the “my orders” section of the market orders. But change its logic a bit:

- Green text: Best price (highest for buy orders / lowest for sell).
- Red text: Outbid.
- White text: Selling/Buying. You were already outbid when creating (or modifying) such order - intentional decision when waiting/hoping for good price.
