Hi,

Anyone know how I can set up the following:
I would like to lay multiple players/horses at a low price.when that bet gets matched,I want to place a higher back bet on those players/horses.

Thanks in advance :-)

I think you are describing what the automation tab can do. Set up the offset you want to use in the global settings at the top.

Then set up a price trigger in the settings area.

Then go to the automation tab and select which runners you want to bet on.

Hi TheTub,

Not exactly...Using the automation tab,you can set triggers to put in back and lay prices,but there is no order on which way they are placed.

I want to put the lay bet in first (if in a range) and then IF that bet is matched,to place the back bet.

Thanks,

Paddy

Surely you can use a fill or kill bet with offsetting. If you set up fill or kill with a long time delay you can click on the price you want or nominate it in the maual bet area and then when that bet is taken it will automatically place the back bet in the market much further up.
