No "target override profit" in "bookmaking" tab

[ilovepizza82]

Hi,

Just noticed its not there unlike in "dutching" tab.
What id like to do is say lay a few CS lines but if one of them comes in id rather lose nothing or slightly less. Basically id like to adjust it. I have a spreadsheet that does that but would be great to have it in BA so it would be faster and easier.
Thanks !

The issue with adding a target profit override to the bookmaking tab is that any selection that you lay creates a loss on that selection rather than a profit, so it all becomes a bit counter-intuitive compared to the dutching tab.

If I had a spreadsheet calculation that can lay a correct score but loses nothing if it comes in I'd stick with it!

As i said in the above post, i lay multiple cs lines, not just one.
And here is the screenshot of what i mean. And as you can see I win £7.32 if none of the 3 come in and i win only £0.83 if the third one comes in.

I set my max. liability to £25

See the above image i uploaded. Im pretty sure it can be done.

It can be done if staking by liability and setting the liabilities you require on the one-click screen, placing bets on each selection in turn. If you wanted to lay everything at a particular price, you could even automate that with the new Servants feature.

But it isn't possible to override a target prtofit when using any of the other staking methods which is why the option isn't on the bookmaking screen.

Yes it does almost the same but for some reason there are different figures with less profit:

The staking method you mention works great but in a slightly different way but thanks anywyay.

Why not use negative values in the dutching screen?
