Placing lays in Place market if BSP is above

[KewellSchool]

I've encountered a problem and cant seem to successfully sort it. I'm currently trying out a new system in which I lay a horse in the To Be Placed market, however I can't figure how to only place it on horses which BSP is over 30. Is it a stored value I need to set or a signal? Apologies if it's obvious or if already answered and i haven't found it! Any help would be greatly appreciated.

The first question is: do you want to lay it pre-post or inplay?

Hi, Its pre off, 30 seconds before start

ok - so, BSP doesnt exist at that point so you need to think about how you might try to capture what you are trying to achieve. The back price might be a good substitute

Sorry, yeah you're right i am looking for the back price

Sounds like a straightforward fixed odds condition if its 30s before the start. Although the slightly tricky part is either cancelling or placing (again) as the price moves in and out of range subsequently to try and make sure you don't back something at 9 that drifts to an SP of >10.

So basically 2 reoccurring rules, one cancels sp bets if the price is >10 and the other places one if its <=10 and one doesn't already exist (unmatched = 0).

Hi KewellSchool
Would you be wiling to share what you worked out? I've just joined BetAngel and working my way through the forum, and what you described is very similar to what I'm trying to do and learn.
