Your share of shelf
2 of 12 slots · 16.7%
One competitor holds three. Slot count is the honest measure here — a single listing in a twelve-slot carousel is not “appearing in shopping”, it is a rounding error.
Why you are losing them
Both of your slots sit third and fifth on price. On a shelf where the whole comparison is visible at once, that is a pricing outcome rather than a bidding one — and no bid increase fixes it.
