hi,

Is it possible to automate that you can back a horse on rank 2 hours before the off and lay off 10 seconds before off time?

When you say 'rank 2' do you mean row 2 on Betfair? If so yes is the answer to your question

Apply the rule to a selection 'By Position (sorted in order of favouritism) 2'

Thanks for that Dallas,

Is there a setting that it closes the bet out 10 seconds before the off time? Also i want to set a stop loss

Yes, you can use Close trade on selection with greening rule for both of those

Any of the rules can be armed for anytime you want

Good morning,
I hope I put this in the right place.
I have managed to put age of runners in "one click scren" along with other data like form, jockey, trainer etc.... the question I would like to raise is

how do I apply the "age" data into automaion i.e. I may want to exclude 2 y.o. races / runners in flat or maybe exclude runners over 5 etc etc .. I am assuming it may be something like a text field like in excluding CHS OR HRD but not sure how to achieve this, any pointers would be most appreciated. Many thanks.

You in the right ball park

The age isn't included in the market title from BF so what you need first is a 'Set/Modify Stored Value' rule to store the value as a text
One of the Pre-set options you can select allows you to store a runners age

Then using the 'Text Comparison' condition you referred to above you can test for the text of a stored value
