Lay a runner at odds based on the number of current runners?

[angelmike]

Hi

With Bet Angel, is it possible to lay a runner at odds based (calculated) on the number of runners currently showing on Betfair?

Example
13 to run
Find runner with current lay odds of 10
Lay that runner at odds of 10
If no runner showing at 10
Then
Find runner with current lay odds of 10.5
Lay that runner at odds of 10.5
and so on ...
until a lay is made

Cheers
Mike

Yes Mike,

Create an automation file & use "Number Of Runners" condition and odds condition greater than 10 and less than whatever your max is then lay at best available price.

It's a very basic explanation but once you start messing around with a file it becomes very clear, very quickly...

Hi jamesg46

Many thanks for your advice. Much appreciated.

I guess that more rules would be needed to allow for non-runners, which would in turn alter the selected "odds" runner. I can see my way through doing that now.

Mike, not sure if this will aid you or not. It`s a snapshot of comparing Runners v BSP (=FLOOR(x,0.1) using £25 Lay stake from Feb 1st this year.

Within BA using SV`s you can specify a specific odd so do not necessarily have to use the odds as traditionaly used say on the ladder with bigger increments inbetween.

Hi Atho55

Thanks for taking time to pass this to me. That's a useful comparator.
