Automation help

[JonnyWally]

Hi all, would appreciate a little help with my in play bot.

The bots function is to back the first runner that meets certain criteria and specific fixed odds. (This part is working fine)

If the horse continues to run well the bet is to remain as is.

If the price on the backed runner should drift x amount of ticks I want the bot to close the trade and green up, and this is where I'm struggling. I essentially want to place a back bet with a stop and greening but it appears this isn't possible? An offset bet is no good as I don't want to close the trade if the horse runs well.

I've tried to achieve what I want using signals but no joy so far..

Cheers

This example will do that, it uses a trailing stop but that's easy enough to change into a regular stop

Thanks for the response Dallas. Ive looked at the rules file you sent but unsure on how to incorporate it into mine as I do not know what to put in the selection box. I do not nominate a specific runner, it just places a back bet on the first horse to meet a specific criteria. I then want the bot to monitor the odds on the horse it backed and if the odds drift to X then place lay bet and green.

Think I've sorted it now Dallas. Just added a few extra conditions to my lay bet rule and so far so good.
