Hi-me again. Had a good scan..still here for now so..yay :D I still am an abject failure at trading but...
Got bored staring at a wall and tried this and got it working.The vwap idea is a good one and it works but you have to put protections in cos if the price/vwap moves (bit hazy on how I did this but I managed it to some degree) massively it can hurt you by more than 50% more liability per runner (I wasn't 100% successful at mitigating but that could have been chemo brain so I'll have a look when I have the cycles )
I managed to write the thing in python-not perfect but very satisfying. Be great to see Total Liability per selection as an enhancement sometime

PS: Friggin favs murdering me today with this but love seeing code work so best losing day :shock: ;)

Hope everyone is well and green(edit: as much as possible :) ).
:) :mrgreen: :ugeek:

I think the problem is counting matched and unmatched bets to combine and form new book.Not only number of them,but exactly which of selection is matched and which is unmatched.
I raised a thread on counting unmatched bets a couple of months ago but didn't get any response :( I solved my issue by a counting loop, storing the count in an SV and comparing it with earlier SV's to see if the count had reduced.

I also remember Tuco raining the issue of automating. viewtopic.php?f=20&t=22165

Good Luck
...and I would still very much like this feature to be adopted into a future release - pretty please BA!
