Hi Dabbla,

I ran the Servant of Genk to win and Liverpool have scored. The servant has traded out but it has created a loss of exactly £1.60 regardless of the outcome. So the servant is running which is progress, just need to flip it from losing an 80% stake to a 20% stake. Can you advise how to flip it to maximum 20% loss. I have tried to edit but I don't want to play about with it to much tbh.
I don't know the ins and outs but is this not just down to the odds available? A goal for Liverpool i imagine would massively impact the odds on a genk win which would end up blowing right past your stop-loss no?
There are Rules that can be set up to give a set loss. That is what I am trying implement.

Yes, but you still need someone to take the corresponding bet to get matched. If i have a bet on unders at 1.8 and a stop-loss set at 1.9, an early goal will see the market suspend and when it reforms it will likely have flown right past my stop-loss.

The BetAngel customer support sent me this link: viewtopic.php?f=47&t=11488 but when I try to run it trades out for a slight loss regardless of the outcome before the match has started.

What market are you trading, the U2.5 market will behave very differently to the U5.5 goals.

Fair enough. I don't trade either of those markets, or use automation, so my input is probably useless. Just wanted to give an example where using a stop-loss might seem a good idea in theory but not necessarily in practice.

Sadly Luke I think Kai's assesment of your motivation rings true more and more.
You are pretending to be dim, to harvest as many ideas as you can to sell on to other people you've got lined up.
Apologies if we're wrong, but thats the way you're presenting.
To reverse this view, start posting the baf you are using and the log file for a given market.
Also to be sure, you are definitely trialling your automation in practice mode, ie selecting practice mode on the BetAngel login/password window?

I'd guess the problem lies in...

Assuming he's trialling these servants he did remarkably well to open a Betfair account without a lengthy thread asking for help with the process!

Fear ye not Greenmark, if I wanted to sell a Kindle book about Football trading I would use voice to text recognition software and convert the BetAngel YouTube videos into Kindle books and sell those. I just hope Kai isn't cyberstalking women like he is men.

If you use the skills you have developed to cyberstalk me to stalk women online I will be devastated. Can you please promise you won't do that.

I literally typed in "JustLukeYou" in Google and clicked on the first few links and I wasn't even the first one to do it since it wasn't even my idea :) It didn't even take 30 mins in total to find all that but 30 mins was more than I could handle, imagine what someone with genuine Mr Robot skills could find.

You also may want to consider changing up your forum usernames now and again to avoid future stalkers, there are better puns out there, I really hope you don't use a universal password for everything as well.

I think it's time to make a point about what this wonderful community represents. Every comment is devaluing an incredible resource and its quite unique atmosphere of kindness, helpfulness, mutual respect, passion for the subject, fun, solidarity..etc etc.. and the list could go on and on.

Btw it wasn't kai who's been tracking you down it was several of us. Your digital footprint is easier to trace than someone who's trodden in dogshit and walked through your house, you've left a similarly unpleasant trail through the internet for over a decade.

Any newcommer reading this needs to know that our response to Gareth is highly unusual, because he is. A 5 minute look through any other thread will show you how good this place is.
