What Condition can be used to Check if a Book side is empty

[PeterLe]

Yes you can do that..(I think. I dont normally use them so playing around at the mo)

=IF(AND(AG9="LAY"),"LAY OFFSET:1 WITH_GREENING:TRUE STOP:1 STOP_PLACE:0 FILL_KILL:TRUE KILL_DELAY:"&TEXT($O$4,"0.0"),"")

The above is in excel, and would trigger a stop at 1 tick lower and then place the stop at that point. The problem is in a fast moving market it may not get matched as you know

I could be wrong but I thought the following was true...

- If a selection has no odds on the back or lay side of the market then the back book% and/or lay book% would be equal to 0.

So, if that is true then you could use a condition like the following...

- back book % = 0 or lay book % = 0

Hope that helps,

Cheers.

Hi cybernet69. Thanks for thinking about this issue.

If you look at some sparsely populated football correct score markets, you will often notice multiple selections have no lay prices but the lay book % will still show some (usually very low) percentage. Also how can you test which of a market's selections have the empty lay side?

Apologies once again for off-topic discussion.
Cheers.

I think my solution I gave only works on true WIN only markets. So, the market can only provide a single winner. Example would be Match Odds in Football, Horse Racing (WIN), Greyhounds (Win) etc. My solution wouldn't work in place markets or whereby there could be more than one outcome.

ah ok. I dont use Excel.

Allot of my greyhound trades get scratched at 0 P/L. Which is better than taking a 1 tick or worse loss.

I have just had a quick play around, if you set it to
Lay price
is greater than 990

It will only trigger if there is lay money sitting at 1000 if there is any at lower odds or no money at all it wont trigger

OK thanks. So it seems there's no way to trigger on an empty lay side.

Not using the fixed odds cond but its not something i have ever tried so will have a proper look later see if there is another cond that can be used and let you know

Try using condition WOM is greater than 99%

Hello Dallas,

Thanks for this looks good.

Is there anyway to make the automation cut out when an "all green" situation has been reached?

Thanks
