Betting Eachway from a list
« on: 17 Aug 2013, 21:32 »
From my experience this is impossible if using a list from an external source eg. ,csv .xls

Occasionally I want to wager in the both the place market and win market but once a horse's name is found, that is the only one process that will be completed. So depending where I position the information for a win or place bet, only the highest (or first encountered) row will be processed.

Example: My .xls has the following information. The trigger recognizes the number 3 as a condition needed for the win bet. Once Frankel and backed MFPro 6 won't process
Frankel,4, 0.05 which is my place bet information.

Black Caviar,3,0.02
Frankel,3,0.02
Frankel,4,0.05

Is there a way around this or have I done something wrong in my triggers. I don't believe I have tested this in MFP7.

Hi londolozi
Just a thought. Can you split the data into 2 files. 3s in one and 4s in the other, and run separate triggers for each?
