Issue with using Actual SP as a Relative Odds condition??

[theosmith]

hi thought i had my Automation rules setup nicely and all had been triggering fine until a few days ago.. i have a Relative Odds conditions setup to lay nominated selections, should their Actual SP be less than the Actual SP of Position 2 (sorted in Order of Favouitism). another words they have to be SP Favourite in order for rule to trigger. This is setup to run in play for up to secs after the off at 1 tick above the SP.

however its now appears to be triggering even if they werent the Actual SP favourite...?? Im thinking perhaps that it's now working off the odds at the time the market is unsuspended (which isnt the Actual SP) and this is why its now firing???

Anyone help me please, just cost me a 150quid

Im thinking now this issue must be a result of the new beta version being released, which i hadnt had a chance to download earlier.

Guys can someone confirm that this will be sorted, added features in beta look great, but surely existing rule setups should have still operated as they did previously...

So anyway if I do download the new version will this rule once again work, or is there now an alternate rule set required which will enable me to lay a predefined selection if it starts as SP Favourite within a defined price range.

Cheers

The order of favouritism for Automation rule is configured in your main settings area on the automation tab, for what you are doing this needs to be set to 'Actual SP'.

Thisoption has been in Bet Angel for several years with the option to sort by Actual SP for several builds now,
There is nothing in the new V1.55 that can effect this or the other conditions you said your using.

It sounds like you may have this still set on the default of 'back price' and been lucky so far as that ends up being the order by SP 99% of the time, but in races where there are closely priced the SP order may differ from the 'back price' order at last refresh.

Or you may have a different settings profile saved where one is using 'Actual SP' as the order of favourtism and the one you've just used is still set on the default back price

Thanks Dallas and apologies for my musings...

and yes the Guardian Automation Favouritism Sort uses rule hadnt been changed from the default Back Price setting. have now changed it to starting price. so thank you. Will retest under practise mode again to be sure..

Definitely a Trap for young players given that its found seperately under a tab in the General Bet Angel settings not as part of the actual Guardian Automation rules setup.

And coincidental indeed that It had appeared to have been working fine up until the system upgrade.. I actually had 3 selections trigger yesterday that werent Actual SP Favourites all relatively close in price at the off but one triggered when their SP was 4.44 versus the Favourites SP of 4.16 so not that close, must defintely have been fortunate over last month..
