Conditions - Percentage of SP

[Mikky]

Automation condition for Relative odds.

I am trying to find a way to fire in a bet if a horse loses a specific percentage of it's starting price. I.e. if say it loses 20% of its original price then it meets the condition to place a back bet.

I haven't really ventured into signals yet (could it be done using those?), but in the main conditions for relative odds you can only use the condition of the number of ticks or an actual price. Is there any way to automate a bet if a horse drops by a specific percentage of SP?

thanks in advance.

If your using the latest Bet Angel V1.47 https://www.betangel.com/download/?product=BetAngelPro
This has Percentages added to it, on the parameters tab you can select 'Place at' Custom % above or below actual SP

Or do you mean you want to back if it shortens to less than X% of its SP / lay if it drifts to greater than X% of its SP?

Yes, exactly this. I can't find a condition that would let me do this without having to have lots of rows of rules covering each price bracket.

It can still be done this way using a old fashioned marker bet,
Assume your backing create a lay bet placed at X% below SP for a few pennies
Then on your main back bet add the condition number of matched bets is equal to 1 (or use amount of matched bets condition) that will hold it off from triggering until you marker lay has been matched (meaning the odds are X% below their SP
