All is ok on the one-click display, question is how do I get to add the additional information when I use EXCEL?
I have done some searching around but cant seem to find a pointer on this, can anyone point me in the right direction. Many thanks.

Typical just after I posted, I found what I needed. Sorry.
It certainly can be done, its just case of using the name of the Stored Value for the VWAP as a condition on your green up ruleJimmyH wrote: ↑Tue Mar 16, 2021 6:17 amMorning to all.
I'm still trying to get my head around the automation side of things and getting to know the value of using information provided by VWAP amongst others.
I have noticed on my research of VWAP, alot of day traders will set their trailing stop at the VWAP price and I was wondering if this is possible to do on BA?
I'm fairly certain it could be as it seems the only thing BA doesn't appear to do is make you a cup of tea!!
First thing I suppose, is do you think having this trailing stop is a good idea?
And secondly how I would go about adding it to my rules file.
I have got to learn how to do these things by myself at some point, so I would really appreciate it if you would just point me in the general direction of how I can get this done (if it's worth doing), rather than actually telling me how to do it!!
Many thanks as always to all.

And the stored value condition would test the price
is now greater than
The stored Value Named
vwap
If I get chance tonight or in the morning i'll post an example up, or if not I'll do it after Cheltenham
It can be put just on the alert rule, the rest will do there stuff but you won't get any alerts until after there's 100kCannylodge wrote: ↑Sun Dec 05, 2021 5:44 amAlso to add a condition where the automation doesn't start monitoring the markets selections till there is a volume of 100k do i have to put this condition in every rule of the automation?
Depending on your strategy you can use it for either, it can also be set up to show as a marker on the ladder either all the time or just when the alert rule triggersCannylodge wrote: ↑Fri Dec 03, 2021 12:41 pmIve been trialing this alert for the past few days. I think ive read it wrong. If its an 'upwards' alert does that suggest the price will drift or it has drifted and will possibly start dropping? and vice verse for the 'downwards' alert?
I thought if it was for example a downwards alert then i should be Laying the horse but a lot of the time i get a downwards alert the horses price drops further. I assume i have it wrong or i just havent tested it to enough races?
I set it up in guardian so i have 4 alerts for the 4 top priced horses and each alert flashes Lay if downwards and Back if upwards. Im now convinced ive got it wrong and should be the other way round.
Also is it possible to have a marker on the ladder that shows the alert at the LTP?
There are rules made for the selections in the first 4 Betfair rows, you can add additional rulesJamiethompson wrote: ↑Wed Nov 30, 2022 9:58 amHow come when just using the ltp and vwap display sometimes there will be horses where it don’t show up on all of them
