Number of Place Bet Triggers condition

[foxwood]

Bit confused - can anybody clarify what "trigger" means in this rule condition please ... was running a rule on 2nd favourite which ended up placing bets on 3 runners where the 2nd fav kept changing :/

I only want bets to be placed on the first runner that matches the conditions and is 2nd favourite and not latch on to another runner later when the 2nd favourite changes.

Hoping this rule might solve it - only want the rule to place one bet if no previous bets fired in the market.

The example given in the post when the rule feature was released implies the condition can count the number of bets already placed in the market by this rule ?

The name seems ambiguous to me since the General set up of a rule allows it to be "triggered" n times every x seconds - but this "trigger" of the rule may not place a bet due to conditions defined for the rule.

So - does the "Number of Place Bet Triggers" condition count the number of bets "fired" (rule wholly matched and placed bet) or the number of times a bet could have fired (rule run and counted whether all conditions matched or not)

Cannot find a detailed write-up of the rules and exactly what they do anywhere. Would be nice to have a detailed spec in the user manual so there was no ambiguity as to how the rules work.

Hope that makes sense - any help appreciated

Give this a soft bump please if anyone can shed some light on this.

Hello,

I will try and answer this one at least to get the ball rolling but my knowledge of automation is very limited.

Generally one trigger will count as either a place bet or matched bet - you do not state whether you are using fill or kill but if you are each of these will count whether placed or matched in the countdown.

Your problem seems to be that once you set the 2nd favourite that other bets are fired as the order changes - have you tried the "Fix the order of the market selections" rule in the general tab - then once the system has identified the 2nd fav. the fix order rule will ensure any other rules are focused on the initial selection.

Then you can create another rule in the conditions tab/"matched bets on selection" is less than one for example.

Hope this helps.

have you tried the "Fix the order of the market selections" rule

That seems to be the key - thank you

I searched on that and found an example at viewtopic.php?f=17&t=8087 with a sample file that shows it firing as the first rule.

Really does need detailed documentation of the rules to save lots of queries

I found this topic because I have problem with this rule and I have question about automation rule: "Place bet triggers on the market".

I noticed that this rule count numbers of triggers on those automation rules: "Place Back Bet","Place Lay Bet".

But not count triggers on this rule : "Green All Selection"

Is there any list which rules the Trigger count?

Or someone knows from experience.

Thanks in advance.
