Is there a way of using the back till you win trigger similar to this one I am testing ......... ((1 + last_lost) / (back_price-1))/(1-commission) ...................but with a limitation on the number of losing bets in a row. I want a maximum of  8 settled losing bets placed,  before  recoupment then ceases. However the trigger should then re commence automatically at stage 1, after the losing 8 bets . Therefore rendering the 8 lost bets permanently lost?

I feel that Loss recoupment (when there is no limitation) can either end up staking more that the amount available to back, or exhaust the bank.  :P
 
As ever any help with this appreciated.

OK GUYS
I think I have cracked it now. using a series of "hist_count" and "losses" and "total won" and then going to a second trigger with bm_backnum it works OK.

By the way I think I have found the ultimate "lay system". my trigger in the competition which backs horses who have not run for 150 days or more, is by far the biggest loser i am testing.
Early indications were encouraging, however since then i have had NOTHING BUT LOSERS ON THE BACK BETS.
i hope that tomorrows test continues in the same vein, and a blank on the final day  of testing will mean that we can lay these nags in the full knowledge that this time next year we will all be millionaires! I could also have the dubious privilege of by far the worse trigger tested!! :P
