Lay draw at half time - What im doing wrong ?

[cains]

Hi

Need help Have made some rules. That dont work the way i wanted it / expected it to work. I will just take 1 rule at a time, since it might be the same problem even though its different markets.

My rule is i want to LTD in half time, at a specifik odds if its 0-0 HT. (actually i want it to place 2 bets within same rule)

In general tab: Place lay bet, between 50min and 1hour relative to inplay time. Allow rule to trigger 1 time by row index 3.

Parameters tab: Fixed price @1,93 and fixed amount 128, Action None.

Condition Tab: Unmatched bets condition = 0 , Matched bets condition = 0 and time since unsuspended > 2990 sec. (that should be 49min and 50sec) my way to make sure that its still 0-0 and im not LTD in a 1-1 or 2-2 game

Why is that not working ? Is it better if i add the rule file to this post ?

My second Ltd bet in this rule is fixed price 1,51 and amount 256. And unmatched bets condition<2 since the 1 bet should be activated already, but other than that the 2 plays is alike.

Thanks in advance

A game can be suspened for any number of reasons and usually is several times each match, these include penalties awarded, Red cards or other major incidents which do not result in a goal. Any of these will scupper your rule with your time since unsuspended condition.

On your 2nd rule are you trying to trigger that if the 1st is not matched and at what time are you wanting to trigger it?

Thanks Dallas.

I thought the suspended periods where the betfair monkey suspends for no reason, disallowed goals etc. didnt count on this rule. Can see how that wont work at all then. How can i set up a rule then to only ltd if still 0-0 (also no red cards, also why i tried using the suspended periods time thing. )

the second rule i want to trigger same time as first rule. Just to put in a lay bet in half time at those fixed odds.

The rule does nt have any way of knowing why the market was suspened so will start a fresh count from each one.

There is no exact way of guaranteeing a HT 0-0 unless using excel, probebly the best way to do in advanced automation is by using a series of historical relative odds conditions to ensure the draw odds have slowly reduced throughout the half with no sudden spikes up.

This can be fairly accurate with equally matched teams but if you have a strong fav and the dog scores the draw odds could still contract slightly or bearly move.

Its fairly even teams when i want to do this. I wont have games with huge favorites. Also want to add many games from a saturday coupon so excel is problably not the way to go there. Thought it could be done quite easily.

hmm.. The historical odds could be done yes.. But also thinking of putting in the bets 15sec after event goes live.. At that time it cant be 1-1. Also if its 1-0 or 0-1 the draw odds will never be hit at those odds and then not get matched so thats fine to. And if goal is scored during first half my bets will just be removed so thats good to. Will play around with those 2 combinations.

Thanks for your inputs Dallas.

I made a rule now where i LTD @1,01 within first minute of the game when its in play.

And then a rule in HT to LTD @1,93 if there is 1 unmatched bet. Tried it out today, but can see that even though a goal is scored and game has been suspended the @1,01 is still there.. Thought all bets were cancelled when market has been suspended.
Thats how its normally is, why is it not like this when placing bets from automation ? And how to fix that ?
