Is there a way that I can order a lay or back bet (go to work), and when taken, the Offset, Stop trigger and Place at, is effectuated.

I have played with the practice mode, but the Offset bet gets taken before my ordered bet, leaving me with no origanal priced bet, no Offset, no Stop trigger and no Place at.

What to do?

Are you applying a fill or kill to the offset bets. It sounds like you are not doing this?

Sounds right, also what I have reasoned after reading the manual closer.
Thanks.

I am having a similar problem.
Did you find a solution mate?

If you place an offset bet without fill or kill being applied both orders will reach the market at the same time. To ensure one bet is offset before the other, use the 'fill or kill' option.
