    I posted an ISO:FT, but I think I was off the mark, because nobody responded. I want to try offering a more generous trade (3:2 instead of 1:1), and it's been more than 72 hours, so if I understand the rules, a new post with a new ratio should be OK. But what about the old post? Should I delete it?

    You can do what ever you want with the old one, leave it or delete it.

    It can be good reference on searches for trades that didn't work, but it's up to you.

    Personally, I'd like to see people update their closed trades with some confirmation that it was done and delete posts that didn't work out. That combination would provide better insights into successful trades, basically those that mattered for references.

    I try to always add a small note to my ISO:FT no matter how it turns out.

    Examples:
    Closed - no trade - crickets
    Closed - trade in progress - as stated
    Closed - trade in progress - added on my side to complete
