much appreciated Dallas thanks for your support once again 

I'm making a mess of this Dallas. I feel stupid because your instructions looked so simple. I'm confused because where you say Nominated Selection in order of favouritism 3, where do I find the 3? I can only find nominated selections 1 and 2.
Hopefully these screenshots should enlighten you.

Where you have the word nominated (just below current) then in the droplist to the immediate right select
' by position (Sorted in Betfair order of favouritism) 2'
Also ensure you only add this condition to your £2 back bets rule on the 2nd / 3rd fav (not the original £10 back bet rule) and for this to work you don't need the 'fix market order' conditions

I'm really sorry about this Dallas but I have done what you said, but I can still see no option for inserting position 3 , in order of favouritism. I am going to send you a before and after screenshot, before and after I have clicked on the droplist. So you can see what I am looking at.
Could you check my rule box at the top please?

There should be a box to the right of the droplist if you cant see it after scrolling across setting Windows to the Normal font setting of 96dpi should solve the problem.
To make the change, open Control Panel in Windows. Choose the 'Display' option and you should see an option called 'Change the size of all items'. With each version of Windows this is displayed differently, but you should normally see either a slider or a picklist or a set of buttons allowing you to pick the preferred size. You're looking for an option saying either: 100%, Smaller, Normal font or 96dpi (again the display depends on the version of Windows).

Thanks Dallas, you were spot on about the size. I've got that bit sorted I think but there is something horribly wrong my settings I guess.
The bets are being placed early in the race. I'm going to send you shots of my log and settings, it will probably be so obvious.
Hey at least I'm getting more and more practise with my screenshots lol.

You have your £2 back rules applied to betfair rows not order of favouritism 1 & 2 also the two 'fix market order' rules are still their.
I have attached a copy of how it should be for you to compare the two.
This rule backs the likely winner still but also if the 2nd fav is greater than 6.0 (when bet on fav triggers) it also backs the 2nd & 3rd fav at best price - I assume that's what you wanted?

Hi Dallas.
I cheated, took a short cut and just downloaded yours. I had to change the prices on the fave. It was set at 1.2 so I changed it to 1.5 and LTP at 1.6.
That fired ok but the second fave was shorter then 6.0 when that fired, and I ended up down £14, as it got beaten.
I'll send you a s/shot of my log and the settings. Actually, looking at the log the fave was backed again when it was drifting to 11. All I'm looking to do, is basically dutch the two closest to the fave (challengers).

I've made a few changes and uploaded the file to the earlier post above for you to re-download, give this a try - i would do so in practice mode until your sure its working as you expect.
Also i noticed from your screenshot your only using a 500ms refresh rate - this is way to slow for in-running automation (unless you have guardian refreshing the market faster in the background) otherwise i would suggest using the fastest rate possible of 20ms
