Hi folks. Still new :(
Ive just created a basic rule in guardian where by the first horse in a race to trade odds-on is layed (not saying this will make a profit blindly running - but its a start).
What I cant figure out now, is that when that has triggered (set to only once so im not laying the same runner multiple times), how can use the same rule file to then fire again if a 2nd (or even 3rd) horse then goes odds-on afterwards, at any point after the first one.
I noticed a couple of races lately where 3 horses traded under 2.0, then the first 1 came back and won.
I just cant find the commands to ignore the horse already layed and scour the rest of the market.
Anyone know how to do that? Thank you.

Increase the number of triggers again to cover the max number of different runners you want to lay
Than add the following condition and that will ensure only 1 bet per selection is allowed

'number of place bet triggers condition'
On selection
is equal to 0

Dallas, would it be benficial to the new ones using Bet Angel to have a library of questions like this. For example this is a perfect example for the number of place bet triggers rule as it seems to me that similar questions like this pop up again and again. Maybe you could do a weekly question for a certain rule and give basic examples of how to use the rule in question or maybe ask the question yourself and see what responses you get, like a quiz, but without any prizes

That was initially the idea behind the FAQ section and the shared automation examples where started to show how a condition/parameter etc could be used in a practical way but in both instances I think due to the sheer number of options available it ends up leading to a large number of threads which I guess must put some people off as they seem to still ask for something rather than searching first (not including the OP in that)

I'm always open to suggestions etc on how to explain the features in a practical way particularly to new users so happy to listen to any comments on how it can be delivered or the content people want to see covered

Pesonally i think some of the threads get too long, often go off topic and generally descend into chaos after a while. You could seperate the questions into beginner, intermediate and expert. Maybe a different question for each catagory each week. you either select a question from a member or ask the question yourself, then lock the thread so noone can take it off thread. Make the answers short and to the point but also make it fun at the same time. One of my old teachers used to say "If learning is not fun, it's not worth learning"

Thanks again big D.
Its a difficult one with so many possibilities in this software.
Obviously my newby question has been asked in different ways many times before. I suspect, like many newbies, I search for related topics before posting, but with some fairly new terminology to me its sometimes the only option to find my specific answers by posting afresh - hence these questions will be eternally repeated.
Eg someone doing essentially the same thing but going about it slightly differently, its difficult for us newbies to make the connection at times.
