actual_sp for dogs?

OK, I am doing lay at SP for dogs.

Is there any way that I can get the actual_sp, and place it in a trigger to log in a text file? I would ideally like to get the stake that the SP bet made, as well?

I can see that the csv statement gives the price, after the event. So, I tried to write a trigger as ["market_name"],["sel_name"],[actual_sp], at market settle, but it's 0.00 every time, so that doesn't work. I then tried to write a log whilst inplay or suspended, again, it's 0.00, so that also doesnt work.

The csv statement logs the price and profit, so why can't I do that manually?

I can get what I need if I just send the statement at the end of the day, by email, but that is more painful than just sending the log files that I write?

Can I do what I require, or is it somehow not possible, and if its not possible, how does the csv statement get written, and can I reproduce this in a trigger?

Thanks

As far as I am aware, the variable actual_sp is only generated if the market goes in play. So unless it's one of the televised dog races that goes inplay, you will not get a value for actual_sp. The statement data are obtained from your Betfair account.

Not sure if bsp_layp or bsp_layl will record the data you need. Sinple to test it out.

OK, thanks for the answers!

Is there some trigger variable I can use to query the betfair statement?

Thanks

Hi
I tested this and I'm getting actual_sp for every market I try including all markets that are suspended at the start.
Just to check:
in your settings is load SP prices ticked

MarkV, thanks so much. load SP prices was unticked! I don't recall unticking load SP prices when I set the profile up, but, maybe I did? Or perhaps it is unticked by default?

I will give that a try today. Thanks again

That worked a treat.

Thanks again!
