drifing fav from 1.7 to 2.5 lay

[daveysam25]

hi i want to set up a bot for the following

drifing fav in-running from 1.7 to 2.5 lay

with close trade on selection when profit hits x

i done this already

but i want add another rule on top that will back the selection at 2.5 if the last traded price was 5 can i do this??

so if the fav starts to get back into the race i can trade out with no loss

any help will be great thanks

You could do this using the new signals of BA V1.44
viewtopic.php?f=46&t=11939

So you would set a signal if you have greened up and the odds reach 5.0
Then have a back bet rule with a condition that a signal must be set

hi thanks ive looked into signals tab, but have no idea what to do...

so if i set the signal value to 1 on the back bet will that mean this will be triggered first?

if so i would need to set the lay signal value to 1

then back set signal value to 2??

i'm fairly new to automation i've added the attachment it might look quite basic to you.

if someone can have a look to see if its correct would be very helpful cheers.

If you have yet read these topics they explain and demonstate how signals work

The signal value does nt necessarily mean the order that the bets trigger Unless you set it that way)

You said you have got as far as greening up a profit - on this green up rule type if you go to the signal tab and select
"Set signal"
on Selection
named "greened" (use any name but something it relates to just makes it easier)
value "10" (use any value but perhaps use the amount your greening up at just for ease)

**make sure you have the bottom box "Note signal changes in the markets log" ticked**

Try just doing that first in practice mode and if you view the log either from the main screen or within guardian as soon as you your green rule has triggered it will place the following signal on that selection and you will see this shown on the log

greened = 10

Now for the new part of your rule, create a back bet rule type and place the bet at "fixed odds of 2.5 and include these condtions
"Signal Set Condition"
Is the Signal Named "greening"
For "the Selection"
"Set With a Value"

"Fixed odds Cond"
Selections "Last Traded Price"
Is "Greater"
than 5.0

Now try that and a back bet should only be placed after you have been greened up (and signal set), and the odds have now drifted above 5.0
