Hi
All the Screenshot Servant works when set to Servant Context, i assigned Key Stroke 8 for it to work which it does fine. But however i want it to function as soon as i open my position without having to stroke Key 8. I understand you insert it into Guardian to do this. As a Servant Context it doesn't accept it, i change it to what you see to activate on the Favourite within Guardian, but strangely it doesn't Trigger once the Trade goes in my Favour :?: :?: Could something be wrong with my Guardian, then again Guardian is ok at Switching Markets between each other automatically :?: :?: :| :|

"Guardian nominated selection 1" is the selection you have nominated manually in the "Automation Nominated Selection 1" column in Guardian. I suspect you likely have nothing selected in this column?

You need to tell Guardian which selection you have opened the position on somehow.

I did load the Rule into Guardian Automation Rule 1 area with no Joy ;)

Nominated selection 1 is different. It's for when you nominate a specific selection from the market by name.

Alpha322, when you set 'Applies to selection' to 'Guardian Nominated Selection 1', Guardian doesn't know which horse/player you traded on unless you manually click and assign it in the 'Automation Nominated Selection 1' column within your Guardian market list.

If you want this to run fully automatically when any position is opened, have you tried changing 'Applies to selection' to 'Any Selection' and then using a Condition (like 'Number of Place/Lay Bets Condition' or 'Matched Bets Condition') to detect when you have an open position? That way, you don't have to manually nominate anything
