Hi again folks, I've been racking my brains about the trading style I'm currently using and have a few questions as I am befuddled at present.

Scalping q
If I'm using the one click screen, make market etc, am I able to post more bets after I have greened up the first matched ones or do I just keep making markets then green up. Hope it makes sense.

Also, How updated are the automation rule files (horses scalp)as I've downloaded a couple for the gee gees to use at York but today out of the 10 or so races I selected, they always seem to lay at a higher price than the back stake, so backing at a lower price, so I'll either break even or lose. Small stakes mind,which leads me on to another q about staking.

If I back a selection at say 3.0 with £2 and lay at 2.8 with £2 surely I'm making some kind of profit or is the stake too small. Also, I'm guessing
that the green up profit display doesn't consider betfair 5% commission either..

Thanks again.

You can use the 'Make Market' button as little or often as you want, you can also green up between trades or wait till the end

Not sure what you mean by 'how updated are the rules'?
If your running the latest version of Bet Angel all of them will work as per the description in the opening post of each thread.

Backing and laying with the same stake will keep all the profit (or loss) on that one runner, greening spreads the profit/loss across all of them.
