I'm trialing a new automation. It's supposed to place one matched bet on a particular runner, but occasionally it places two.

It has unlimited triggers with 2 seconds between re-arm.

Conditions include:
Matched bets = 0
Unmatched bets = 0
(and take SP)

Any ideas why I might be getting double bets?

Thanks

This might just be about the delay in actually creating the first bet - especially if it is under £2 and has to go through the usual routine
You can prevent this by instead using Number of Place Bet Triggers=0

Use 'number of place bet triggers condition' is equal to 0
Thats set locally so there is no delay in waiting for a response from BF

Thanks, but I was hoping to place the bet into the market at one tick below market price, and then if not matched then place the bet again as the price moves. Place bets = 0 means that I won't be able to do that, I dont think.

Dallas is always the rightest.

I guess I can use an SV for the P&L (is that new? I've only just noticed it)

What about using a signal when matched?
