Hi, can anyone advise on this?
I'm a little baffled by my automated triggers on Guardian that work absolutely fine but only the second half of the day! It's a basic program that backs my selection after the first few seconds of the race and then either goes on to win or reds up after the odds drift. This works fine but only on half the trades...
For example, I select on Guardian today every race starting at 12.25pm through until 4pm. I return to my laptop at 5pm to check and only the races from 3pm onwards have been triggered.. I've hunted around but can't see any settings that relate to timings etc. I press the "select all markets" tab and they all get high lighted in blue.
This has happened 3 days running now and I can't see why!
Any advice gratefully received...

Have you checked the refresh rate in Guardian?

We had a ticket about this in support (presumably from johnnycash) and the solution was to use restricted refresh and using Guardian's ability to 'Automatically switch the Bet Angel market'. Without those settings, each market was not being refreshed often enough for the automation rules to run as required.

I think the ticket in question may have been from me. The problem was only present in BetAngel for Betdaq.

Yes, the ticket was from me.. answer received was perfect, all to do with refresh cycles and ticking the boxes for restricted refresh etc. It works really well now thanks.. sorry.. being so busy trying to make a consistent profit forgot to keep an eye on my own thread! (Of course any advice on consistent profits using Guardian most welcome!!!)
