Hello. Can you tell me how to use the fat-finger rule in these cases?

All trading is based on soccer as an example.

1.For example, we need to take all bets on a draw that are higher than odds of 4 on the football market.
To do this, we should place a back bet with an odds higher than 4 on the market when the bot sees the amount.
What settings should we set in the bot? The video on youtube explains it using horse racing as an example,
but it is unclear how this will work on football markets.

2.The conditions are similar, but now we add the "first in line" function to the market,
that is, we place our bet on the market. For example, we put a lay draw with odds of 3 (unmatched)
and the bot should increase the lay to odds of 5 to be first in line if someone outbids. It is not allowed to bet above this odds.
If the bet is matched, then the fat finger must add another amount for this lay bet not higher than lay 5.

3.And the last question. Is it possible to place bets through the site interface so that the fat-finger rule
is observed by the bot? For example, if we put a request for a back 5 on a draw and the bet was matched,
then everything above 5 should also be matched if these amounts are on the market at this moment
I understand that probably not, each market needs to be added to the Guardian,
but it would be great if there was an opportunity. Since if you trade many markets, then opening everything in the Guardian and setting conditions for each market will take a very long time.


I am clarifying because I am afraid of making mistakes. I have little experience trading with a bot betangel

Firstly all markets behave the same way when it comes to betting, football, horses etc etc only the name is different. So what you see done on horses, you can do on football or ping-pong.

If you want to "take all bets on a draw that are higher than odds of 4" then you'd ask for 4.0 on your back bet and you will be matched at the best available price(s) which might be above 4. But what you get depends on the available money. If there was £1 available at 4.5 you'd get that, then anything available at 4.4, then the money at 4.3 etc but never below 4.0 which was the minimum price you asked for. The same applies if you place the bet on the site or via BA.

There's no need to worry about mistakes if you use Practice Mode. That's there so you can configure and test your automation without risking any cash.

Thanks for the explanation. I don't understand only 2 points.
I have to choose "Automation" , then "Create a new rule for selection market", then "place back bet" and in parametres "fixed price ". In our case it is back 4 (on draw). True or false?
I don't understand that when I click on applу, nothing happens.The market's window does not close. Is the rule already working at this moment or not, how can I check? For example, The market currently has a coefficient of 3.3 on draw.Has the bot started checking the market for odds higher than 4?



It would also be great if one of the creators (Dallas or someone else) explained points 2 and 3 of the first message, since it is very difficult to understand even in test mode without knowing the exact betting terms in the program.
