Hi Dallas

I'm testing this automation couple days and loss comes usually from lay bets with very low odds (below 2.0) and/or back with high odds (over 100). I've created conditions with fixed odds type for both lay and back prices but it keep triggering crazy odds (1.01,500,1000). What's your recommendation to avoid bets with this odds?

Thanks for your common helpful replies.
Make sure you have them the right way round,
you should have lay price less than 'X' and back price greater than 'X'
I've done in other way, lay price greater than 2.3 and back price less than 100. See attachement.

Also below part from a log that didn't respected the condition:

20/07/2020 05:12:47: Guardian has detected that the market is in-play
20/07/2020 05:12:47: Guardian has detected that the market is suspended
20/07/2020 05:12:49: Guardian has detected that the market is now unsuspended
20/07/2020 05:12:59: [G_Auto] : $ 31.25 Lay bet placed on 2. Donegal Art Chokin at 1.16. Entirely unmatched when it initially reached the market. Ref: 11969 ( Fill or kill bet with 600 seconds delay. Offsetting by 50% [A] with greening. )

Hi Dallas,

I'm glad I came across this Bot as it is similar to what I want to do but I have been struggling to get it exactly how I would like.

What I would like to do is lay the same horse 3 times at different percentages with an offset bet of 12 ticks on each lay to green up. To do that, is a simple case of adjusting yours in parameters from percentage to ticks? When setting mine up I originally had it to offset 12 ticks but it was doing that part pre off for some reason so I modified it to green up when profit gets to X amount but I'd prefer to do it by ticks if possible.

Also, the part I am struggling to execute is the exit trade if things go wrong. I would like to trade out X % of the overall liability used on the 3 lays. How would i do that please?

Thanks for any help, greatly appreciated :)

Yes, you can just change it from percentages to ticks on the parameters tab, you'll also need to adjust the place at option if you want you lays at different prices
you'll also need to add a third rule if you but this would be the same as the previous

If you are laying at a percentage/ticks below a price ie the SP, then it'll be easy to work out how much your overall liability will be from the three lays. So you could put a cap on how high the BSP is, or if the BSP is over a certain price reduce the stakes of the lays so that your liability is kept below what you want it to be

Thanks for the reply Dallas, I've got it working much better today.

For testing purposes my overall liability on the 3 lays comes to £70. How would I close out an exit if the liability reached 20% of the £70 for example?

is it possible for it to be set so it tries to lay the field, than than just selected horses.

Thanks

Yes, you can use the rule 'lay all selections'
or apply the rule to 'every' selection

Do you mean when your loss reaches a percentage of your liability?

Your liability is the max amount you can lose from your bets/trades, ie £70

Yes when my loss reaches a percentage of my liability.

So if my full liability is £70 and i want to trade out when it gets to a 20% loss it'll do it at £14 so i lose £14 and not £70

You'll need a 'Set/Modify Stored Value' rule to store the P/L of that selection, with an adjustment of 20%

You'll then be able to add a 'Green all profit condition' to test if your P/L exceeds the the value of that above Stored Value

There's an example here which you can copy from that uses exactly that type of set up which you could copy from

Hi Dallas,

Sorry 1 other thing. How would I set it up so the In-play lay of 50% BSP only triggered when the SP was between 10 and 15 for example?

Thanks :)
