Hi just getting started on this but would appeciate some help. I've followed the video tutorial re laying the draw automatically and then greening up after a goal. However, how can I set a rule up that will place a back bet on 0-0 after 80 minutes providing of course there has been no goal? The aim being to partially hedge the draw lay so at least restricting any losses.

If this could be done could it be done as a new condition on the existing rule or would I have to load the correct score markets and create a brand new rule on that?

Just wondering if all this could be done and how to set it up? (Also, if there is any better strategy I could follow to hedge the lay?)

thanks

Easy.

Tee up an automation file in Guardian to automatically back when that market drifts in. I think the conditions applies to row 1 in betfair order for correct score. Apply when back price is under 1.5, say, and Guardian will place Back Bet for x.

Don't worry about time as the market will do that for you.

Happy to polish an automation file provided you send a first draft to me. You should practice!

And to your question on markets. Lay the draw on Match Odds. Back the 0-0 on Correct Score. Two different markets and two different automation rules.
