Hi,
I've just joined the forum/Bet Angel, and I was particularly interested after the videos on YouTube about the Automation process and I followed the "Front runner" bot, and set it up on the practise made a recommended.
I think I followed the rules correctly, but as the 5 second back bet was taken and the lay bet was offset, I don't think the Lay bet was being kept in-play.
Although the price dipped below my Lay price, it wasn't being matched.
Can anyone please tell me what I am doing wrong (Why Lay Bet isn't going In-Play?)
Many thanks in anticipation.
Jim.

Thanks Dallas.
So basically I wasn't leaving a big enough window on the lay bet so although in my rules it had 'keep all bets' it didn't have time to register.
So at time 00-00-00 it aknolwledged my lay bet, but wouldn't allow it to go in play?
Thanks for your help mate.
Will let you know if successful.

The lay bet will have been triggering but the then yes there isn't a big enough window for the keep bets rule to trigger when multiple markets in guardian, the following thread explains how guardian cycles and refreshes markets so should become even more clearerJimmyH wrote: ↑Wed Dec 26, 2018 2:48 pmThanks Dallas.

So arming the keep bets rule for any time after the lay rule has triggered with a large enough arm window will solve it

Still no joy I'm afraid, In my 'Keep in play' rules I now have:- Keep all unmatched bets in rule type.
Rule trigger time:- now at 'Always armed' with no stop rule.
I did try the trigger time at 'event start time' 5 secs before to 15 secs after start time.
gawd knows how I can balls this up!!

Thanks for your help.
I think i'm just gonna run with this one as it is, and give it a few tweeks once I see how it works.
Once again thank you very much for your help.
