Hi Mark,
I would like some clarification of the 'pdt' & 'tm' constanst in the version 4 you just sent regarding placing a 'Lay' bet.
If we use the following settings as an example, have I understood correctly.
pdt set to -10
tm set to .5
If back price drops greater than 10 ticks within a half a minute period then place a lay bet. If so then that is what I want.
How does the calculation of >10 ticks drop take place without a 'remember' function?
eg: odds 30 seconds ago 3.20 odds now 2.60
Thanks

Hi
The condition:
and selections back ticks dif over tm mins is less than pdt
takes care of it. From the manual:
"28. Back Ticks Dif over ... mins
The change of the back price over the specified number of last minutes, in price ticks. So, if the price has dropped from 2.0 to 1.82, this will be equal to -18."
so for this condition I have made 2x constants to make it easy to adjust the values
tm = the time to measure the price difference over
pdt = the price drop ticks when to fire the trigger
In the example you give:
tm=0.5
pdt=-10
so if the price has dropped by 12 ticks in 30 seconds, the condition will be met
because -12 is less than -10
effectively "back ticks dif over x mins" is a built-in function. The "x mins" must not exceed the setting:
