Please could someone review this rule?

[Cash Collector]

I am essentially using lay bets to test the market, then exporting bets that have been matched, for use by scripts I have built myself outside of BA. As I say the lay bet is just to test something, so I later cancel it. The flow on a whole is like this:

1 place lay bet
2 if lay bet is matched then save necessary info to stored value
3 export stored value to csv
4 trade out lay bet

I am currently setting up 2, I will be laying every selection in a given market so it must run on all selections, the rule is as follows

Always armed so it runs on every selection on every race, also applies to EVERY selection, I'm not sure if I need unlimited triggers in addition as I only need the data once for each selection


Fairly confident on the conditions page


This stores the selection name, race name, and lay odds (which are another stored value)


I then need it to trigger step 3 (export stored value to csv) so I have a signal


Does this look correct? Appreciate any help that can be offered, thank you.

I've only had a quick look, but it looks like it could empty your account very quickly.

If you only want it to run once, then dont set it to 'unlimited triggers' unless you really need to.

On the conditions page, you've got it set to run so long as the number of bets is > 0. You should probably say that you only want it to run if it is zero. Or another saying not to bet if matched is = 1 or whatever.

Thank you, I appreciate your response.

For this particular rule, all it does is save a lay bet to a stored value, so it wont be using any money. But rule 1 will be placing bets (10p - but still bad news if it gets stuck in a loop).

I need the rule to run once for every bet that is matched in a given market (50 horse races for example), I'm still getting to grips with what settings work on selection level and market level etc.

So I will apply what youve said regarding to rule 1 - place lay bet (not shown in images here), so it only only runs if the number of bets (on a selection) is 0.

Thank you!
