Football pre off starting odds

[fairlysteady]

Hi all,

I am hoping someone can help me out.

I have a few simple bots for football. I want to add a condition of what the odds as we go in play are less than a certain value.

I.e. do not place bets if starting odds are over 1.4. I can see the historic fixed odds condition, it wants me to input either "now" or "x amount of seconds ago", I want to say 1 second into in play time.

All help would be greatly appreciated.

Add a condition to the rule that says the market must be in play.

However, sometimes there is a short dip in value in the first few seconds that a market goes into play. You're probably best setting the rule to fire a few seconds before scheduled off time instead.

Cheers,

So set it as inplay and now, and have my bets fire from 1 minute in?

I was trying to set is as an condition to a back bet, maybe pre off signal then?

If you add a set/modify signal rule applied to the selection you'll be trading ie, betfair row 1 and arm it just before KO
and on the Signal tab set a signal on the market
named 'allow' (or any name you want)
value (anything)

With a fixed odds condition
Selections back price
is less than 1.40


Then on your back bet rule
add a signal set condition
Signal named 'allow' or (whatever you called it)
Is set with a value

You can arm your in-play back bet rule whenever you want, but it will only trigger if that selections odds were less than 1.40 pre-KO and the signal has been set - otherwise it will never fire at anytime in the match
