Remember Trigger
« on: 24 May 2010, 12:22 »
Hi,
I think I posted the message below in the wrong area.
Do hope someone can assist.
I learnt a lot by reading the manual & testing things but I reckon my poor brain is scrambled now & I can't figure out how to write this.
Many thanks.

Hi everyone,
do hope someone can help.

I have been running a trigger for a little while.
Repeating trading block on favourite.
I have a remember trigger set at a specific time to remember the favourite.
I then have a back trigger that compares prices etc using the remember & then a lay trade out trigger.
So far so good!

What I now want to do is to add in another condition.
I only want the back trigger to back based on the second favourite's variables.

So I sat down & tried to write it.  I have failed.
My questions:
1)
If I change my Remember trigger to remember the favourite and the second favourite, I can then apparently refer to both the fav and 2Fav at that point in time as 'name of remember trigger'_(index) .  The max number for the index would be 2.  How does the index number work. Does 'name of remember trigger_1 mean the favourite at that point?

2)
I then want to compare the price of the 2Fav from the remember trigger with the price of the same selection at a later time.
How do I make sure that I am referring to the same horse now as the position of the horse may have changed and may not be 2Fav now.


Any help would be very gratefully received.
Many thanks.

Hi LB

there is a selection variable which ID's the selection in the Betfair Database , sel_ID , perhaps you could use that in your trigger?

Rich :)
