Green: £24.50 locked in whatever happens, after 2% commission. If you let it ride instead: +£98.00 if it wins, −£50.00 if it doesn't (after commission).
Commission is only charged on your net winnings in the market, so a locked-in loss pays none. The hedge is rounded to the penny, which is why the two outcomes can differ by a penny or two.
