Naturally wagering at Actual SP

[zanewiller]

Hi

My development statements of regret for what might appear to be a seriously fundamental inquiry. I'm attempting to mechanize laying a given choice at its Actual SP, with a decent stake, 2 seconds before the beginning of a race, gave that the Actual SP sits inside a given reach.

Am I right in thinking this is the way that you could get it done?

General - Rule being Place Lay SP Bet, and arm trigger at 2 seconds before occasion start time
Boundaries - I'm battling with this since there doesn't appear to be a choice to lay at a decent stake
Condition 1 - Actual SP of choice is more prominent than X
Condition 2 - Actual SP of choice is not as much as Y

In the event that this doesn't work, is the under an elective arrangement?

General - Rule being Place Lay Bet, and arm trigger at 2 seconds before occasion start time
Boundaries - Place at: Custom Ticks Above Actual SP (with Custom Ticks set at nothing); Stake: Fixed Amount of £X
Condition 1 - Actual SP of choice is more prominent than X
Condition 2 - Actual SP of choice is not as much as Y

Much obliged

You can't test the actual SP is within a range before the race has gone in-play and the SP is known

You need to either;

1), use the projected SP, back, lay or LTP as your min/max range
2), place the bet at SP once a race has gone in play and the actual SP is known - this does mean you may not always get all or even some of your bet matched
3), use a 'place a SP bet' rule, this will allow you to set a upper price limit but for the lower price you'd still need to use a condition to test thats satisfied before allowing the bet to trigger
