Hi all a query, is there anyway of activating the Servants hands off, I mean not needing to activate them using the Keyboard Strokes, a bit like the safety mode, with that you can set say in my case I set a rule Take SP & Green or red out before race Jumps. So I am using a Servant that once the Trade is in my favour by two Ticks it activates 50% close and 50% 5 ticks further down, but to operate this I have to Press F5 before entering the Trade. I Just want it to activate everytime Guardian throws up a market for Horse Racing. Any ideas???

Maybe I'm missing something but why not just run it as a Safety Servant?
Or apply the rule to your markets in Guardian?

I remember when I first started I didn't initially understand that a servant and a Guardian automation rule was the same thing.

When you set off a servant, all you are doing is triggering a Guardian automation rule against the relevant market/selection.

I think that's because you have the servant rule set to trigger against the selection 'by nomination' > 'servant context selection'.

If you want to use it as an automation you need to use conditions to tell Guardian which selection to trigger against.
