Hello,

Well I'm having trouble combining the DOB with the Dobing, I want the negotiation to close without loss, for that I added the Dobing to the Dob, but for some reason the dobing is not being triggered, can someone help me?
Cheers,
Rui

Hello,

As I have not found a way to reconcile DoBing in the standard way I have added in the parameters an action to make an Ofset bet with greening at 50% (Lay), in case the odd falls to these values and it is working, however it does not protect me in case the odd does not fall at all and quite the contrary it rises from the beginning.
I would like to implement an additional condition or rule with a lay odd higher than 100% of the initial bet, for example:
1st 10 pounds bet on a Back bet before the start of the race at an odd of 3.00:
2º Offset bet with greening a before the start of the race at 50%, in this case it would be a Lay with an odd of 1.50, which is matched if it reaches that value:
3rd Place a lay protection bet. if the odd is rising because the performance is not going well, this odd will also be placed before the start of the race.
at 100%, with an odd of 6.0.

The first two conditions I was able to implement (as per the attached file), the third option is still beyond my capabilities, I've only had 18 days with the program, so I'm still an inexperienced novice in the program.
I would therefore ask one of the brilliant minds for your help, as I still have a lot to learn, but your examples are crucial to my learning.
I look forward to hearing from anyone who can or wants to help me.
Cheers,
Rui

#3 is known as a "stop loss".... The user guide covers it well but obviously that's hard to find until you know what term to search for. You can't place that bet until that price actually occurs, it will always be at a worse price than the current market so will just be matched immediately.

Hi Shaun

Maybe I didn't express myself well, what I want with the 3rd option is to protect myself from a 100% loss.
With the second option I have a 50% profit if the odd is reached, which sometimes is not and the loss is 100%.
What I really needed was a rule or condition that would prevent me from leaving the race with a 100% loss and I don't know if that is possible, I imagine that this could be done with a lay to another horse that is very unlikely to win the race , additional conditions may be necessary for this to occur, but unfortunately I do not have a high level of knowledge to know how to do this.
Hug,
Rui

As I said if you want to stop a loss you want to use a stoplosses. It's the name for a greening trade that fires when the pl is negative.
