Is there an existing formula to back a horse at the BSP and lay the same horse to obtain a 50% ROI?

Back @ BSP and lay at using formula
Lay Price = (Back Stake/Lay Stake)xBSP

The lay stake = (Back Stake x 50%)+Back Stake

This generally works out much more profitable than using the Bet Angel formula

Example Back a horse at 4.0 with £2 stake using my formula
The Lay Stake = (£2x50%)+£2 = £3
The Lay Price =(£2/£3)x4 = 2.66

Bet Angel will back at 4.0 and lay at 2.0
This has less chance of matching

I am looking at backing several horses each day and automation would help enormously

Your help would be gratefully appreciated
Best regards
John

You could set the exit bet to trigger at any price you want including using either a percentage relative to a selections BSP or relative to the stake you use for your opening bet
