Have you made any changes to the automation file in-particular the timings used for the green up?
there were set to trigger up to 3 times with a 3 sec re-arm time which is clearly not happening from your log

Hi Dallas,

Yesterday the answer would have been no, I hadnt made any changes when the same thing happened.

Today the answer is yes I have changed it so that its a 'green up' rule rather than a 'close trade and green up' rule but as to timings, no, I have not altered any timings. The green up is simply set to trigger at a certain figure nothing more than that.

I hope that helps ?

Thanks, and thanks for the note about the PM too.

It needs to be left as a Close trade on selection with greening to monitor the profit of each runner individually, by using 'green all' your effectively triggering the green up on both runners at the same time when their collective total profit is greater than £10, and if you have used two 'green all selection' rules that is why both runners are getting two green ups every time it triggers.

Hi Dallas,

Thanks for that, and I will make sure to change that.

But with the greatest respect, that doesnt explain why it happened the day before, when I hadnt made any alterations?

Without seeing the log for that market its impossible to say, the most likely reason is down to either your guardian settings and/or a slight blip with Betfairs API. There is another DOBing rule which uses the recently added % offset feature rather than triggering the green up from a profit condition, you could try that rule

I have been playing around with this and I was wondering if it's possible to create a trailing in play stop loss that follows into profit? If so, how would it be it be implemented?

Thanks,

Highlight each back rule and click 'edit rules file' then go to the parameters tab and its under global settings

Sorry Dallas, I can't find this. I can't highlight both back bets only select one?

You need to do them one at a time

Hi Dallas
Tried this dobbing file yesterday and it seemed great. I was wondering if it was possible to do a couple of other things. First after backing a horse offset the lay side at say 10% 20% 30% 40% and 50% in equal stakes. Secondly would it be possible to have a trailing stop loss at say 50%. So that if the horse doesn’t reach the 50% mark it will green/red the remaining liability. Cheers

A 50% stop and stopping if it doesn't get to 50% are quite different. Which did you want?

Also at the 10 20 30 etc do you want equal stakes as you say or an equal reduction in your liability at each step. Which of the 10 20 30 etc would be your breakeven level?

All doable but I'm not sure what you are looking for.

... For now you might want to try creating a bot which places 5 x 'offset bet with greening and stop' bets all set to different offsets but with the same 50% stop. Try it in a spreadsheet or practice mode first.
