Betting a percentage of bank

Hi all...
I'm betting with a bank of £200 and a stake of 1% of the total
If the bank is above £200 I want to bet 1% of the total bank (ie balance/100)
If the bank is below £200 I want to bet a straight £2
Is there a simple way to do this ?? If I use balance/100 and the balance is, say £180 it will preumably try to bet £1.80 which is below Betfairs minimum of £2
Help !!

hi
in the amount box put or copy and paste.

IF(AND(test_mode=1,test_balance<200),2,IF(AND(test_mode=0,balance<200),2,IF(test_mode=1,test_balance/100,balance/100)))

Either use mcbee's formula for a quick workaround, or see the attached trigger file for a more adjustable solution.

Many thanks guys
McBee, I can kinda see how that works but could you talk me through the steps...
I'm using it in real mode so don't need all the 'test mode' stuff, and can't quite figure the last part 'IF(test_mode=1,test_balance/100,balance/100)))'
Thanks again, and to you too Oxa

hi
IF(AND(test_mode=1,test_balance<200),2,IF(AND(test_mode=0,balance<200),2,IF(test_mode=1,test_balance/100,balance/100)))
if you are in test mode and the test balance is less than 200 then 2 euro bet
if you are in live mode and the balance is less than 200 then 2 euro bet
if you are in test mode then test balance divided by 100 else balance divided by 100
here it is for live betting only.

IF(balance<200,2,balance/100)

a lot easier for just live betting.
if balance is less than 200 then 2 euro else balance devided by 100
