You'd need to add in a few further rules for that, there's no way to simply hold the bet 3 ticks away, ie, you'd need to also store the value of the entry price, then have a cancel unmatched bets rule with a stored value condition to test the best price is less then 3 ticks below it
and then have the back bet rule able to continually re-trigger if there are no unmatched bets on the selection, and of course the take SP rule to re-trigger - but it is doable
Thanks Dallas. Where can I learn how to do this myself? Are there any videos on Stored Values in terms of what I need to achieve this?
Do I need to change all of the other auto files?
I would like to use this just as an automation rule i can apply to markets and multiple runners up to around 3-4 runners.
Also I would like to do a spread entry, so to speak, to hide my intent.
There's plenty of examples and videos on using Stored values but there's literally tens of thousands of things you could do with them so every possible scenario can't be covered
You seem to be jumping from one thing to another in quick succession, the best thing is to probably sit down and write out the full logic of what you're wanting to do, that way you avoid having to go back and change a load of stuff its won't work in its current form with what you still want to add. There's a blog here which details a good way to go about constructing a rules file

Then once you begin creating the file if you get stuck you can ask a clear question of what you need at that time with an outline of where you are heading with it and it makes it easier for me or someone to advise
Basically I would like to place a back bet at BSP, using a liability stake. I know this is impossible, but I would like to get as close as possible to it and my suggestion is this.
This is what I would like to do:
I would like Betangel to calculate the stake I would need if I placed a Liability Back bet at the Current Best Reverse Price, but place the actual bet a number of ticks (to be determined) above Current Best Reverse Price, then have Take SP always armed, and continually update as the price moves, from 30secs out up to the actual off time, and (bonus) if possible spread the bets to hide them within the liquidity available.
