This may be a tuff one but say i have a - £462.96 liability on over 3 goals on correct Score. After say 12 mins ofg the game how do i tell a servant to work out a back bet that would put that Liability to 0 say £51.44 x odds 10.0 so after 12 mins has lapsed the stake is calculated that will reduce to 0

Rule 1
The math is
0 - -£ 462.96 = £ 462.96
0dds 10 -1 = 9 (You might want to store the odds 10 as a SV, you then use that to place the bet.)
462.96 / 9 = £51.44

Rule 2
back bet, Use the SV for £51.44 as the stake.
Place at the price you wish (Odds SV from above).

Another way is to use a 'Set/Modify Stored Value' rule applied Betfair row 18 (or any selection you don't have an open trade on)
And on the Stored Value tab store the P/L of that selection

Then on your back bet rule use the staking method 'By Liability using a Stored Value'
and enter the name you used for the Stored Value above

Is there any rules built like this i could adjust and fit to my requirements but Stored Value P/L is the one as after say 12 mins i want it to fire Back bet (Correct Score Market Row 17) at the current price to 0 the liability

Morning here is a clearer explanation of what am after, i want the Servant to track the price as it rises from 6.0, when the price gets to a certain point after a time rule, say 12 mins, its to then place a back bet to close out a liability, so for instance any over 3 goals Home has a total liability of -£466.67 on it within 11 mins of the game, at 12 mins it places one of those back values at any of those current prices, it reduces the liability to as near 0. There is a Video Peter done where the servant came alive done his task i think it was a make market column thing, but i know the servants can do what i need, i would have a great Correct Score Rule that i would share in forum later once back tested. Premier League is here lets do this :lol: at the moment i have to enter stakes myself. The spreadsheet took months :roll: :roll: had to understand Formulas etc but got there in the end

I’m not really sure why you want this as a servant, as it would be better run via Guardian.
With servants you need to manually start them, with Guardian automation, its running in the back ground.
Maybe post a link to peters video, so that I can get an idea.

Here’s a file that will track how much is needed to green. Use this in Guardian, as this will allow for constant monitoring of the stake.
Use the SV (Track Green) for the stake needed. The £50 in the screen shot.
The SV(Track Price) is the back price -1
I have added 1 condition, (Matched bets on the selection) is > 0

Here’s a file the can be used as a servant, it will simply place the back bet at the best back price, with the (Track Green) stake.
Track Price (servant).baf
These are very generic but should set you in the right direction.

Not fully tested ,so use in Practice mode till happy :D
