I think my issue is the same as many so probably not a lot more can be done than what I have read so far.
I lay the selection pre race and back selection to green up in running. Green up works fine and I have as a stop loss at 30% in place as well as Redding up as well. However with these fast changing in running markets often it isn't triggered and i'm losing the lot.
Is there no way of putting in place a set 'back' price below my lay price apart from using the fixed odds condition because that doesn't work for me as i'm using so many different price ranges. So basically just want it to put in place a back bet price at 30% below what I have layed at and for it to go in play.
Thanks

The volatility and the Betfair bet delay onin-play markets means its impossible to guarantee every bet will be matched, you can increase the chance by having a bet trigger at a price then place several ticks behind it, the further behind the more the chance of being matched.biddynz wrote: ↑Tue Apr 28, 2020 12:29 pmI think my issue is the same as many so probably not a lot more can be done than what I have read so far.

However the further away its placed means you'll need to green up additional times as this can only be calculated at either the price its placed or triggered
Yes have a decent gap between the two but still not quite catching at times, it is because the markets im playing are small trading amounts so big swings i guess.
I haven't looked in to stored values etc too much as still at the learning stage but is there nothing in there that can store my matched Lay price then use that price as a guide to set a price for the fixed price to back?

Yes, but even if you place the back at 1.01 at best you'll still need to green up again to even out the loss which will require a another bet placed at or near the current price, and on some occasions you still won't be matched, ie, if its near the end or a race or the other runners fall or get hampered near the closing stages.biddynz wrote: ↑Tue Apr 28, 2020 12:44 pmYes have a decent gap between the two but still not quite catching at times, it is because the markets im playing are small trading amounts so big swings i guess.

Thank you.
I managed to sus out that I had the speed at 1 second refresh so once I changed that things improved in the only few races that were left for the night. Also noticed on a greyhound system i'm trying improved dramatically as well,that refresh rate can't be underestimated can it.
Cheers

You should always have it as fast as possible (20ms) on in-running or fast moving pre-off markets and have Guardian restricted to only those markets your rules are active onbiddynz wrote: ↑Wed Apr 29, 2020 12:20 amThank you.

Has there been any update on BA targeting this function yet? ...or maybe any suggestions on how to get to round this?alexdbarros wrote: ↑Sun Jan 15, 2017 2:54 amHi
I am putting in one bot the stake according to % of the balance.
Is there anyway to green up according to % of the stake? (not fixed value)
For example, If the profit is > 10% of the stake, then green up.
If there is no option to do that, it could be a suggestion to put on Guardian.
Thanks
Many thanks
Hi,
Hope you're well. I'm trying to green/red up when % of stake i reached. Not sure if this is possible - as not working at the moment.
The way I'm dong this is:
Lay the draw
Store the draw stake in a stored value (for market) multiplied by -0.9 (to get 90% of stake value as a negative)
Compare current profit (for market) with the stored value. (i.e. if current green up value is less than -90% of stake . Using 10GBP stake as a test so want to green/red up when -9 GBP)
The final rule is not firing. I am copying data to logs and can see that the stored value manipulation is correct (is being set to the correct number)
Any help would be greatly appreciated

Yes it can be done, there's a recent example I've just posted that exits when 50% of the potential liability is reachedCraigHBet wrote: ↑Fri Jan 22, 2021 2:47 pmHi,

If you want to take a look at how that's set up compared to yours yo might spot what's going on, but if you get stuck just post back
This is a great little file Dallas used it a few times i place back bet and it triggers at the minus sometimes but if i still feel the selection is going to win i fire it back in again to know i will only lose the -3 if goes against me again ie -6 and then green up for the profit ... if successful
Hi Dallas
Ive been using this on in play Tennis but when its greening up it sometimes places two closing bets turning a green into a red.
As below
14/09/2021 12:07:55: Guardian has detected that the market is in-play
14/09/2021 12:07:55: Guardian has detected that the market is suspended
14/09/2021 12:08:13: Guardian has detected that the market is now unsuspended
14/09/2021 12:08:21: [G_Auto 1] : £ 20.00 Back bet placed on Anna Kalinskaya at 1.42. Fully matched at 1.42. Ref: 244104241156 ( Fill or kill bet with 0.5 seconds delay. )

streaming at 20 ms.I have adjusted the retrigger time to 10 secs.
Seems plenty of money to match >Is this due to the inlay delay ?
any thoughts appreciated.
Would I just be better having a place a back bet rule with the green and red up conditions added to that one rule ?

You'll need to ensure the re-arm time are set longer than the in-play bet delay on the sport your trading.Kazbet wrote: ↑Tue Sep 14, 2021 1:11 pmHi Dallas

On tennis the delay is 3-5 secs so a re-arm of at least 6 secs is needed
I'd just like to say how much I appreciate these. I just thought this morning: I wonder if I could protect against losses like this, rather than by ticks or %? And then I thought, I bet dallas has a file I can adapt and now I'm here! Brilliant stuff.
