I have always had an issue with this condition, if I have automation that fires bets in as it should as soon as I enter a condition with close trade at say less than -$5 it won't put any bets into the market, I remove this condition and the bets go in as they should.
Not sure what I am doing wrong?
Also if I have trades on multiple runners will the Close Trade only close the trade on the runner that meets the criteria or will it green/red all runners?
TIA
Close Trade Condition
Thanks, but I am working off the user guide and it said this
A good way to remember it is to visualize it as a ladder with greater being higher and less as lower,
3
2
1
0
-1
-2
-3
so if you wanted to set a rule to trigger if a loss is worse than -£1 you would use 'Less' than -£1 (less being any figure lower than -£1)
So if I want to close trade at -2 I would set it up close trade at Less than -2.
However either way it wont close at greater than or less than

If you want your rule to place bets providing you loss is no more than -£5 then as Dabbla said above you need to use 'Greater than -£5'
As it shows in the ladder visualization that will allow the rule to trigger if your current loss amount is anything above -5 (ie, -4, -3, -2, etc)
If you want to actually green up when your loss exceeds -£5 then you need to add either a;
'Close trade on selection with Greening' rule, with a 'Close Trade Profit condition' is less than -£5
'Green All Selections' rule, with a Green all profit condition is less than -£5
As it shows in the ladder visualization that will allow the rule to trigger if your current loss amount is anything below -5 (ie, -6, -7, -8 etc)
