Need some help.

Hi all. I'm having a go at designing my own trigger but am struggling with one part of it.
If i want to back a selection at the current favourite's price in the hope that it will be matched, I'm struggling with the part that asks what price to place the back bet.
Would i be right in assuming 'r_(sel_order_1)_back_price' would do this. I"ve tried so many formulas and each one places a back bet at the current selection's back price which gets matched straight away rather than the favourite's price which will go unmatched initially.

Many thanks in advance for any help or advice.

Hi mate

In price, if i understood correctly you only need put this

r_1_back_price

but never forget betfair match unmatched bets at the best price offer, so it only will work if you place your back based on a higher favorite than your selection

Hi!

This article could be helpful:

4. I want to bet on the favourite, but only if the fourth favourite’s price is >= 10. How do I specify this in a condition?

Thankyou very much guys for your suggestions, I'm gonna have a good read n give it a try. I've been to wrapped up in sel_order to realise i didn't really need that. I'll post back once I've tried n let you know how it goes.
