Always hard to know how experienced someone is but, i hope you're passing target prices too.

very valid point. , i'm just grappling with getting anything going in bet angel at the moment, not as intuitive as i hoped. Looks like people have done a lot of good things

The penny will drop. It's a bit quirky but you get used to it. You're right to start simple and build up though and you'll get more support from Dallas than the subscription cost suggests tbh. The user guide is good but when something is so configurable it's always going to be more a list of the building blocks and how you arrange them is up to you.

:D That was all very charitable towards BA. I must be in a good mood. Some days I'd just tell you what's wrong with it ;) All the best.

You don't need any conditions on the stored value rule (only the back bet rule)
Also on that Stored Value rule you've called the stored value 'Horse'
But on the Stored Value Condition on the back bet rule you are looking for a stored value named 'Predicter Winner'

These should match so either change the condition stored value name to 'Horse'
Or rename the Stored value to 'Predicter Winner'

And your back bet rule is applied to Betfair row 1 so will only trigger if the horses name is in your text list and in Row 1 (you may have done this on purpose just for testing) but it will need applying to Every selection if you want it to always back a horse if its in your list regardless of its Betfair row or order of favourtism
