Hello,

Well I'm a beginner in Bet Angel and I'm having some difficulties with this strategy that I've attached:

- Do a pre-race search for odds between 6 and 10 and place a lay on a single horse; (Works perfectly)

- As soon as the race starts to go out with a profit of 20%, if it is hit (here I am not getting it done), I spent all day trying, but sometimes the rule is implemented, but most of the time it does not enter the trigger and gives me the following information
"22/10/2023 19:26:39: Guardian has detected that the market is in-play
22/10/2023 19:26:39: Guardian has detected that the market is suspended
22/10/2023 19:27:05: Guardian has detected that the market is now unsuspended
22/10/2023 19:28:23: Guardian has detected that the market is suspended";

- I'd also like to add a stoploss of, for example, 50%, but I don't know if that's possible.

Can someone help me? :oops:

Cheers,
Rui

You Green up rule has a condition looking looking for a Stored value - which hasn't been set as it's set by the green up rule triggering
A sort of chicken and egg situation

You need to insert a 'Set/Modify Stored value' rule between the two you currently have to Store the liability
There are also some other errors on the Stored Value as it currently is

1) The name you've used for the stored value is 'green' but the name in your green up rule you are looking for is 'Green for current selection' - so you need to amend that including the capital letter used
2) The stored value is being set on the market, but the condition is looking for a stored value set on the selection - these need to be the same
3) The rounding to a valid price needs removing, as its a numerical value you are using not a price, you could round to the nearest whole number if you wanted to drop the pennys off the end

Hello Dallas,

Thank you in advance for your quick reply.
I think I missed some of the corrections you indicated. I am very new to the software and I still have a lot of gaps in passing on the indications you gave me to the automation.
Would it be possible to indicate in a more direct way what I'm not being able to interpret?
I know that your job is to help, but at the same time you suggest that we put into practice certain tips that you give. However, I'm not managing to interpret what you've written in its entirety, I'm sending screenshots of the changes, but I know that I'm failing at something that I haven't been able to interpret.

Cheers,
Rui

Thank you very much Dallas, you have shown yourself to be a very patient and dedicated person, your help is motivating for learning.
I still have a lot to study about this software, but I'm very dedicated and I don't give up easily.
I hope in a few months to have at least 20% of your knowledge in this software and how to employ effective strategies.
Thanks again
Cheers
Rui
