Hello everyone. I've been playing around for a couple of hours trying to figure out if there is a way to use Guardian to wager (or not) based on a change in account balance.

For instance, if I start the day with a balance of 1000 I might decide I wish to stop betting if I win or lose 10% at any point during the day. Is there some way to compare the balance at two different points in time?

You can store a value called 'the Balance' and go from there.

If you have a genuine edge (your E(x) is positive per event) why would you ever stop?

Can a stored value in a history list be shared across events?

You can take a stored value from a history list , set that stored value as an event.
