simple automation fires sometimes but not other times.

[Andyx]

I set up a very simple win automation file. For 3 races - It fired, it fired, then it didn't fire. Is this a feature of automation software. There was absolutely no reason why it shouldn't fire on this particular race. It's actually quite frustrating.

Any one having a similar experience?

Best regards.

Every automation rule will fire 100% of the time providing you have configured it and your Guardian settings correctly.

From what you've described it sounds like you have your Guardian refresh rate to low for the number of markets you have loaded and/or your rule/s are armed for

Thanks for the reply - I'll take a read of that - but in the mean time, I've changed the guardian refresh rate to 1 second - it actually was at the fastest- so it may well make all the difference. My logic prevailed faster the better - but clearly not in this case

I have had quite a few instances, in practice mode, where the log shows that Guardian had detected that the market is suspended(preventing rules from firing) but my eyes tell me that the market is not suspended

Change the refresh rate to the smallest possible latency, should be 20m/s.

At this refresh rate Guardian will cycle at a rate of 50 markets per second. Therefore if you've got 500 markets loaded then each market will refresh approx once every 10 secs. It has to fall on the relevant market at a time when your conditions are met for it to fire.

Most likely the same issue. Shorten your Guardian refresh rate and/or reduce the amount of markets loaded in Guardian, or load the focus market into one-click or ladder screen to force minimal refresh rate.
