HELP - Double firing

[LittlePickle]

Hi,

Please help someone

Have been working on an automation file and it is going very well but I am having problems with double firing.
This happens very rarely but happened to me on a loss, and with lay odds so high a double loss can wipe out a huge profit

I have the trigger rearming after 3 seconds. Refresh is 20ms and restricted refresh is on so only a couple markets are active.
Both conditions of "number of matched bets" and "number of unmatched bets" are both set to =0 for the selection

Yet the log below happened.

LOG Example:

20/12/2019 11:26:49: [G_Auto] : $ 2.50 Lay bet placed on 13. Snowfire at 6.2. Fully matched at 6.2. Ref: x ( Fill or kill bet with 13 seconds delay. )
20/12/2019 11:26:51: [G_Auto] : $ 2.41 Lay bet placed on 13. Snowfire at 6.4. Fully matched at 6.4. Ref: x ( Fill or kill bet with 13 seconds delay. )

is there something i can be doing to help stop this, i'm happy to increase the rearm time but i'm not sure that's the problem?

Thanks.

Is this something inplay or pre-off?

Pre-off

I find it is usually the re arm time if I get multiple entries

Number of Place Bet Trigger condition
on The Selection
is equal to 0

I see this issue double-firing popping up occasionally.

It happened to me today 5 times today on a new automation (not excel)

I want to lay every horse once, pre-off, if certain conditions are met.

Rule: place lay bet on any selection. Trigger 24 times, wait 1 sec before rearming. I'm streaming at 200ms.

Conditions:
1. not in play
2. unmatched bets on selection = 0
3. matched bets on selection = 0

Should that be sufficient to execute?

TIA

Condition: Number of place bet triggers on selection = 0 should cure this for you A - you could then even be able to safely shorten up the rearm time if you want.

Thanks Jukebox.

Appreciate it.

ETA. OMG. I realize that answer it exactly the same as the post above my question. Sorry everyone. It's a wonder I can tie my shoelaces some days.

(I thought 'Place Bet Trigger condition' referred to the place market. Doh)

How do I stop the double firing if I want the bet to repeat itself when the conditions are right, but only fire once each time.

For example I want to lay @ 1.2 and take 10 ticks profit. Then do the same again if and when the price goes back to 1.2. This can happen several times in a game.

How would I set this up please?

Use an appropriate condition.

For example you could say there has to be zero unmatched bets on the market for the rule to trigger.

When I have the condition of 0 unmatched bets on the selection it double fires. I can't condition the number of matched bets because I don't know how many times the trade will present itself in each game.

I think the place bet triggers condition prevents it from triggering more then once?

Can you suggest any other conditions I could use to solve the problem.

This shouldnt be possible, unless your bets are matching straight away, or you are trading in an in-play market with a bet placement delay.

Most likely you've made a mistake somewhere. Post your .baf file and someone will probably be able to spot the issue.

It could be the delay. I'm trading in play. Is there anything I can do to stop it. My last resort was to half my stake because it almost always double fires.

When you place a bet, store a value called (placed bet) for the selection. Store the value of 1
Then add a condition called (Stored value SET condition) to the bet rule. Then select (NOT SET).
This will stop any other bets.
Then create another rule the clears the SV (placed bet), when you’re ready to fire another bet.

Easier way to achieve this is to use the 'add market betting delay" checkbox. With this checked, any repeat trigger will not activate until the original bet has hit the market, so the unmatched bet = 0 condition will now work.
