Hi
Apologies if this has already been covered but is there a way in Automation to make a Back bet and only offset it once the Back bet has been filled?

I've tried using Offset and Green but there's a danger the Lay side gets taken before the Back bet

Thanks

hi chris. yes, check the Fill/Kill option and assign it a value. only you will know what value you (in seconds) that you need to assign, but typically this may be something like 2 seconds if trying to capture fast moving gaps or 9999 seconds if you just want to place the bet with no limits on the back bet being matched etc... there are quite a few mentions of usage on this forum -just search for Fill or Kill
