So this has come up for me a few times now, where i'm tracking multiple transfers that are very close to each other. The active bid only tracks the most recent one, so i have to manually keep tabs on the second auction, and do not get any updates on the second auction. One of the times i was involved in two bids that were minutes apart from each other, and ended up getting distracted and sidetracked and ended up not getting in on either player. On the other hand, there are times when transfer players go above my budget (for example, right now) or I lose interest after previously bidding, so the active bid update is kind of useless while i have other transfers that I may want to keep track of. In my current case, my active bid is 2 hours away, with a player that is already above my budget, while another auction i'm interested in ends ~20 minutes after that, so it would be nice to be able to manually either change the active bid, or add a second active bid to track.

I understand this is not a frequently use case, and probably doesnt come up too much (I've had it maybe two or three times), and is a convenience feature more than a necessity, but it would be nice if we could have some degree of customizability with the Active Bid feature. Is this viable or would it take too much work for not that worth it?

Actually, we improved the bids page just to be able to track multiple bids at once. We haven't considered improving the active bids feature in this way, but we will now. Only lately have we managed to try fixing a bug which cause active bids to crash the match tactics page after long inactivity (not yet sure we did fix it). Improvements of already implemented features are not very popular with the management, as having new features always sounds better. However, things are looking up and this just might get done eventually.
