Hi,

I was wondering if I could get some help....... This is my first post and I am new to BA and I am having problems with greening up.
I have a basic scalping automation that I have downloaded from the forum and I would like to add a rule that greens up once a certain profit is reached or a loss is reached. I want all of the bets to stop once either one is has been achieved. I have tried a few things but it keeps firing off bets once in the green. Is this request even possible? This is for pre off horse racing.

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.


Regards
Luke

Thanks Dallas.

Just one last thing, is the "Less than" on both back and lay bets?

Yes you add the condition to all rule types you want to stop triggering

Dallas / Anyone

I have entered the fields we discussed prior. They are not working and keep firing bets off even once greened up. .

Ive even tried the close off trade option as well and it doesnt work.

Any help would be greatly appreciated

Thank in advance

While your back or lay bet rules can have < or > (representing your desired profit or loss conditions) you will need separate Green Up rules to fire, one for the desired loss and one for the desired profit.

As an example, your back bet rule has two conditions to only fire if greening is Less than £0.99 and Greater than £-0.99

Separate Green up rules

Green up for profit rule would have the condition Greater than £1.00
Green up for loss rule would have the condition Less than £-1.00

Hope that helps??
