guys I apologise as i assume this is a basic question but im just starting with bet angel on practice mode, watching all the videos and just starting to use excel to create automation rules but:

When creating rules for automation in guardian how do i make it place the back bet first rather than the offset lay?

Also, do you experienced users use only excel to write automation rules or is the standard guardian create rules file allow for adequate automation rules?

Thankyou for any help as i get my head around the software

You need to use fill/kill as part of the parameters. Remember to set batching to 1 unless you are using large stakes you want to split up.

You can use a mixture of Excel and Guardian automation. The latter is useful for tasks such as greening and closing.

Thankyou The Tub.

The one thing I havent figured out how to do either in excel or guardian is to change the back price after kill.

For example - automation to back at $1.5 and fill or kill at 3600 seconds. Rather than resubmitting at $1.50 how do I instruct to resubmit bet after kill at original price minus one tick for example? If this new bet was killed after one hour the next bet launched would be at original price minus another tick again ($1.48) and so on....

I could use time constraint in guardian so that from 20 - 10 hours before start bets launched at $1.5 then 10 - 0 hours before start at $1.48 etc but not really what im looking for....

guys having a small issue - using guardian im placing a back bet offset with fill or kill with 'number of unmatched bets' condition = 0...

on most matches its working fine but occasionally i get TWO back bets then they are offset when matched by TWO lay bets...????? How do i stop this?

This is due to the inrunning bet placement delay. You need to add a 'time since unmatched bet' condition to stop this from happening.

Thanks @Euler I thought that may be it and put it in at 2 seconds - i will experiment with this.

Got ONE MORE problem if anyone can help - it seems some matches i have automated are inactive until i click on them and view details... I was backing at 1 tick above best price and offsetting 1 tick. No activity for hours then i clicked to view log and all of a sudden the offset lay was matched and a new bet placed but the lay price was way higher it must have been matched a long time ago...
