Round a price

Hi at all,
I'm just register 4 a month to x-feeder, but now I'm looking for a function to round the start betting price.

Thanks on advice.

Sorry, I don't understand your request.
Please try to rephrase it.

If you are using a translator then make your request in short sentences.

4 example:
if I want place 2 decimal to the starting bet as:

total_funds / 5 = xx.yyyyyy

I want round the yyyyyy to yy

tnx

It won't make any difference. The default back or lay only have 2 decimal places. So there is no need to worry about it.

Thanks for the reply.

A related question is whether MF Pro will always submit a proper price regardless of the result of an expression. I seem to recall that it does but cannot find it in the Help file.

For example, say the price is calculated by the trigger as follows:

(back_price+lay_price)/2

and the prices are 2.98 and 3.25 respectively. The result is 3.115. Will MF Pro place the bet at the next closest price, i.e. at 3.10?

I presume the software must know the tick values, so could round up or down. Also the BF matching engine will automatically deliver the best price available for any bet.

Yes and no. MF Pro does of course have the tick values built in. However, it will not submit a bet at any different price (try it manually). I don't believe Betfair would behave any differently.

However, I tried the calculation above and MF Pro handles it perfectly. It does seem to round to the nearest tick value.

We are in the X-Feeder topic ;-)

Yes, you're right. Are they any different when it comes to the price ladder?
