Close Trade After X Seconds

[annuity]

Hi,

Hoping someone can help me please. As part of my automation I'm trying to create a rule where if after X secs since opening a position and i'm in the red, close trade on selection.

I've tried using "unmatched bet time condition" but the problem is i have open unmatched bets so it's not triggering.

I've tried using "fill or kill time condition" but the problem is my opening fill or kill bet is at best market odds so gets matched straight away and never becomes "active". The fill or kill element is just for insurance.

So as far as i can see there are no other time based conditions i can use.

Hoping i'm missing something and someone can help me find the answer please. My automation is working great in every other aspect it's just this last bit on limiting losses i need to lock down. Thanks in advance.

Signals can be used to achive this, the shared files section has a ready made file that can be downloaded.

Worked a treat thanks once again. Plus i now understand signals which has opened up a whole world of opportunities and my mind is racing with ideas.

I see you've posted many new automation starter files recently and I'm sure i speak for everyone in the community in saying your hard work is very much appreciated.

I'll get round to looking at them all eventually. The bot i'm working on started out as your 2 vs 1 file and has taken all this time to expand on and test and test again, so please don't feel disheartened if there appears to be a lack of response to some of your posts it just takes time to do each one justice.

All the best and i definitely owe you a beer some day.
