You can use the cancel bets rule

Sorry Scotty
It depends what you mean by scratch, I think i may have over simplified it
If you have for example a guardian bot that scalps and you have entered the market and have been fully or partially matched and now wish to trade out for no loss/gain (the market looks like going the wrong way perhaps), then I guess you could write something to trade it out as near a scratch (zero loss) as possible
I had something similar written in excel years ago and it was hard enought to write it in excel to work 100% as I wanted.
I know you prob know this anyway, but It also depends which type of market youre using it on. A football pre off may be OK, but a horse racing market has completely different characteristics
Regards
Peter
