Each-Way Markets
« on: 23 Jul 2015, 06:26 »
In February 2015 (I think) Betfair introduced Each-Way markets.  I can find nothing specific on the Forum or manual.  It always seems to get mixed up with the Place market.

As far as triggers are concerned are they the same thing?  Does there need to be a special way of dealing with an Each-Way bet?

In the trigger box "Markets" is an Each-Way market a Place market?

For instance it appears that way from this thread:

Thanks

hi
that is a trigger to place a win bet and a place bet to create an eachway.
there are specific markets for eachway betting.

Hi McBee,

OK I did not look at the trigger that closely, sorry,  I was pointing out that there is a specific Each-Way market.

The problem is there is no selection to refer to that in the "Market" box. 

To bet in an E-W market does Place Market work?

Also, does the winplace_   prefix work in an Each-Way market?

Be careful not to use autodutching on eachway markets, as i have said on the forum cost me over 200 pounds when i loaded them by mistake instead of place markets, auto dutching treats them as place markets so looks for a book of 200 percent for 2 place and 300 for 3 place etc.If i wouldnt have spotted it my bank would have been wiped out, coling

hi
to bet in EW or PLACE the markets in the trigger can be set to Place Markets, bets will only be placed in those markets.
WinPlace works in ANY 2 linked markets that are loaded.
win/place
win/EW
EW/place
PLEASE NOTE THAT EW MARKETS ARE DOUBLE YOUR BET SIZE.

Hi, I noticed that the Profit/Loss calculation in Test Mode is wrongly displayed in Each Way markets as there are 3 different possible outcomes (horse wins, horse placed only, horse unplaced) but the Test Mode seems to calculate profit/loss same way like a place market.


 

Please note, BetFair is seems to be currently OFFLINE
