Dutching in Automation only when profit is worth it

[cookyweb]

Good Morning All,

I've been playing around with a version of dutching in automation on the correct scores market, I've been using advice I found from Dallas on using the book % and its actually all working a charm.

Is there a way though to say only trigger my back bets IF the profit would be x or something similar?

The example I guess is, I'm using a total stake of around £10 when these bets are applied, so I want to make sure the profit would be over £10 so I'm getting overall odds of at least 2.0, if its less, if I'd only be winning £8 for my £10 stake then I dont want it to trigger.

Is that possible?

Thank you.

If you're using the same correct scores you could save the book percentage as stored values, then combine them to find your total book percentage and only let your bets trigger if your total book percentage is 49% or lower depending on your commission.

Come to think of it, you could use nominated selections for the scores and save the book percentages as Nom 1, Nom 2 etc and then total them. That way you wouldn't be tied to certain scores as in the first suggestion.

Hi there,

Thank you

I gave it a go as a trial with 5 nominated selections and it triggers fine. The only caveat is that all 5 Correct Score Nominations must be filled, otherwise an "Invalid value" result appears and the automation progression is screwed as Null values continue to nothing so no bet results.

Using nominated selections is a lot of hassle for things like 3pm Saturday kickoffs, that's a whole heap of clicking and picking possible results for each match:
Real Madrid at home: 1-0 2-0 3-0 2-1 Any Other Home
Barcelona away: 0-1 0-0 1-0 1-1 1-2
Clickety click click click!

Of course it can be modified for 3 or 4 selections instead of 5, but if everyone learned everything from this forum then the Bet Angel Youtube channel would miss out on all the hits!

Ideally, you want to be using the selection (Every) and set your conditions to pick the Dutch selections. You will have a lot more flexibility doing like that. How are you selecting your selections ?
@ Dublin_Flyer
Just looking at your file. All the (Store) SVs could all be placed in the same rule.

Here’s a revised version of Dublin_Flyers file using the (Every selection) It will Dutch selections that are under odds of 10 + under 50% book
For testing I have switched the back bet rule to an SV rule , so that no bets are placed, you will just need to change that back to place back bet.

Ill have to leave it there , one of my monitors has just passed to the scarp heap in the sky.
Make sure to test it fully in practice mode.

Why not dutch to profit check total stake and if acceptable then place the bets.
