Custom box: speed of the leader (1st) ONLY.

[ilovepizza82]

As in the subject.
What do i need to change and where ?

Ive come up with the 1st fav according to odds but dat is not exactly what I want.
I want the runner currently in the 1st place, leading.

There are others more capable - but under the stored value tab, there is a field
which allows you to store the race leader's speed.

Once stored, u can call it up in a custom column to display it.

I hope that's what you want.

The best way is to store everything and play around.

But in the screenshot i am...in the "Stored Values"...
Where is it ?
And i dont think you can do that there. You only have a few selections to choose:
- by name - by row -1st fav (by betfair odds) etc. but there is no "position" option.
THats the whole point. Its not possible to do that there.

You would need to make a new rule.
Selection = EVERY
The condition would be (Stored value condition) Position =1
Then store another value (leaders speed ) with the speed.
You can store that SV as market or selection

If you use selection, you will need another rule to clear (leaders speed)
If the condition, Position does not =1

Then add (leaders speed ) to a custom column.

What new rule ? "Store value" ?
I dont get it.

Where u are currently saving Speed (m/s), the tab has 10 other variables u can store.

Press the down arrow at the end of the line where Speed is

I cant select "position =1" anywhere around here.

Automation is by no means easy - and I often feel amateurs have little chance of finding a +EV strategy, as
the simple ones have already been done, and sexy stuff requires a deal of coding knowledge.

Again, under the tabs for : the current selection, there are drop down options.

[Dabbla]

Look at you first screen shot,
The first stored value is “Position” ,you need to use that stored value, not runner_position.
Then where it say “is” that should be “equal to”
VALUE B an “entered amount” = 1.

[ilovepizza82]

Im totally confused now but i think im getting somwhere...
So is this what my condition tab should look like or not ?

[ilovepizza82]

And this is the "stored values" tab:

[Dabbla]

Ye that looks fine.
Personally I would have stored (another stored value) “speed” from the first SV rules as the speed-leader Stored value.
What you have should work just as well.

[ilovepizza82]

Thanks Dabbla !
And thanks for your patience
The whole automation thing is very confusing and complicated to me.

[ilovepizza82]

Nah. It doesnt work. Just checked.
I included my custom box setts as well.

In the custom column settings, change stored value to (market) not (selection).
