 +  * ''Weights'' for slots on the list cannot be modified directly - they get calculated automatically from the ''Start weight value'' and ''Decrease ratio'' - if you change ''Decrease ratio'', ''Weights'' will be re-calculated accordingly
  
 +=== Outlist length ===
 + 
 +You can change the number of slots on the list by modifying the percentage of active trades ("outgoing list" must have at least one slot).
  
----- +++++ Example | 
-==== Automatic outgoing list ====+**Multiple slots:** if you have 20 active trades on your site and your ''Outlist lenght'' is set to ''25%'', there will be 5 slots on the "outgoing list" and you'll be sending traffic to trades aloted to the slots according to the probability TE3 calculates for each of them. If a surfer has already visited some of the trades on the list, those trades will be replaced by pending trades.  
 + 
 +**Single slot:** if you have 20 active trades on your site and your ''Outlist lenght'' is set to ''1%'', there will be 1 slot on the "outgoing list", and the probability a surfer is sent to that trade is 100%, unless he has already visited the trade. In that case he will be sent to a trade with the second highest ''Owed'' ratio.  
 + 
 +++++ 
 +     
 +=== Decrease ratio === 
 + 
 +Trades on the "outgoing list" are relative to each other and the ''Decrease ratio'' defines correlation between them. When you edit ''Decrease ratio'', you influence distribution dispersion and you change probability a trade will receive a surfer. As you can imagine, different settings will produce very different results - we don't advise you to experiment with this feature, only change ''Decrease ratio'' when you have a good reason for it.
