Very confused with Historic Relative odds

[ringo.simpkins]

I am a bit confused with the plus / minus bit of the historic relative odds. I want to check if the lay price on the selection is now significantly shorter than it was 60 seconds ago..

For example, the lay price of the selection 60 seconds ago was 1.61 , now it is 1.5 if in the B part I put now 'plus 10 ticks' would it fire? I just dont get what plus / minus x ticks actually mean in relation to the odds 'now'.

I am trying to check that the odds have shortened a lot, so if the lay odds were 1.51 60 seconds ago and now they were 1.4 or shorter I want the rule to trigger, if the lay odds now are 1.52 or higher now then I dont want it to trigger.

I am probably being dumb, I have looked at the reference and that has not really helped me out. Any help would be great.

1.50 now = ((1.60 (1 minute ago) minus 10 ticks))

1.61 now = ((1.50 (1 minute ago) plus 11 ticks))

I think in terms of the brackets - it helps.

Thank you so much, that helps a great deal

To clarify then using this example 1.50 now = ((1.60 (1 minute ago) minus 10 ticks))

If I said now greater than minus 10 ticks in the conditions, if it was 1.40 now and 1.60 a minute ago the condition would be true and trigger the rule, if so that is exaclty what i am after.

No, the 'greater than' does not refer to the number of ticks. It refers to the price now.

1.40 isn't 'greater than' (or higher than ,if that makes it easier) 1.60 minus 10 ticks.
