Hi all,

Can anyone tell me if settings on the one-click screen impact on automation bets i.e. I want to do some manual trading in-running today but I don't want the greening and fill or kills settings I have added to the one-click screen to affect my automated bets.

There is no differentiation on the API between a manual bet or an automated bet.

So, YES, your manual trading will affect anything you have on the same account that you have automated.

So even if the automated bet isn't set to green up via the automation it would now do so?

BA doesn't make a distinction but the API can via the bet strategy reference. It's not just manual/auto that clashes, it also affects bets placed outside of BA. Sadly this means I can only use BA to monitor markets because its so dominant. Whereas positions I create elsewhere can leave BA ones alone.

Thx - I never used the API much, but knew any external bets would cause issues with automated strategies.

There is a test version of Bet Angel. Trying new things out on it can be time-wasting, but tends to save money.
