Hello all,

I'm after some help with the bot I am trying to use. I have set up a lay the field bot which is working fine however I am struggling to work out how to set it to kill all unmatched bets in the market once 2 of the lay bets have been matched in play? Is this possible? Can anyone advise?
Thanks
Nathan

Is there a reason why you want to cancel the unmatched ones, If your laying the field the more lays you get matched the greater the profit.

Yes once 2 have been matched that's profit sorted however if 3 or 4 get matched this will be most likely to be very late so fairly good chance would go on to win.. would get the full lay amount from the other 2 would equate to more than 3 lay matched bets.

Instead of laying the field set the rule up this way

"Place Lay Bet"
Allow to trigger 2 times (2 sec re-arm)
applies to selection "ANY selection"

Parameters
"fixed odds" (enter what ever odds you where laying the filed at) (eg 1.75)
"Stake" (as above)

Conditions
"Fixed odds condition"
The selections "Last traded price" is
Less than (enter odds just above what you have used for your fixed odds above) (eg 1.77)

"Number of place bets triggers condition"
Number of bets triggered on "selection" is equal to "Zero"

Thanks I will try that.. Will it have the same result as I'm after as placing a back bet is opposite of what I was doing before?
