Hi all, Is there a setting to use the lay price to determin order of fav in automation. It appears to select using back price at the moment.

Cheers

The order of fav is only determined by the lowest avalible price it can be backed at, using the lay price it would nt be a true order of fav but just another way of sorting the order

Dallas thanks for reply , its not actually the fav dog i am interested in its the outsider the hightest lay odds 2 mins out is a true reflection of what dog will be the outsider the back price at 2 mins out is not a true reflection, i am currently having to lay in place market at average 4.7 30 seconds out . when run manually i am getting matched average 4.1 because i an using lay price to indicate outsider.

Go to the Bet Angel settings and select the Automation tab

On this tab there is a section headed "Guardian Automation"

and in this section is an option called "Favouritism Sort uses"

which you can set to be "Back price", "Lay price" or "Last Traded price"

(but be aware that this will be in effect for all rules)
