> ### Description
> Starting on the **Buy BTC** page, with for example a EUR fiat currency, everything is Green.
> All buttons say (have a label) _"Take offer to buy BTC"_.
> When the user clicks the create new offer button, with label _"Create new offer to buy BTC with EUR"_, the offer ends up on the **Sell BTC** page, which is Red.
> 
> Clicking a **Green** button results in a **Red** offer !! and vice-versa.
> This doesn't make sense. It is counter-intuitive and problematic UI design.
> 
> The labels for **Take-offer** and **Create-new-offer** buttons are very similar and do not clearly hint at the actual behavior.
> The casual or new user should be excused for feeling confused. I was.
> 
> This confusion results in many users going through a trial-and-error session, to discover the actual behavior.
> Also, first impressions are important.
> 
> #### Version
> Current version v1.5.1, but not relevant as this is how the UI has been set-up.
> 
> ### Steps to reproduce
> This is how the UI is currently set-up.
> 
> ### Expected behaviour
> When a user clicks on a green colored **Create-offer** button on a green page, user **expects** offer to appear on the (same) green page. Same expectations with red offers.
> 
> ### Actual behaviour
> Created Offer is displayed on another page.
> 
> ### Screenshots
> Buy BTC page (green buttons) with EUR.

> 
> #### Corrective action
> The UI experience can be improved by modifying, either:
> 
> 1. the **Create-new-offer** button label, _only_. Ex. on the Green page, to display "**Create new offer on the Sell_BTC (Red) page**" or similar message, or
> 2. the button behavior. Have new offers created on the current page, with button label to display "**Create new offer here**".
> 
> To me item 2 would be better and the preferred modification path resulting in a clear UI improvement.
> 
> What do you think ?
> 
> Please add a GUI label.
