Can Market Feeder Do This? [TCKTPTW-829805]

Hi,

I have an automated trading system for the tennis that is yielding some good
results, but could potentially be even better if I can automate one or two
more things. Somebody pointed me in your direction but before I get involved
with testing it out I want to know if Market Feeder has the capability to do
the following.

Question 1:
1. Put in a lay on a favourite at a particular pre-defined price based on
starting price (e.g. Starting price between 1.70 ­ 1.80, lay goes in at 1.22
for a fixed level point risk)
2. Also for all matches, automatically put in a back bet on the fav at. E.g.
4.0 for a level point risk
3. Automatically hedge out whenever it sees 1 point available and cancel any
other outstanding bets.
From what I've read it seems this would be possible. Can you confirm. And
also, if it is possible, is it easy for a beginner with this software (me!)
to set up?

Question 2:
1. Also, is Market Feeder all plugged in to a central system so I can set
and forget, or do I need to keep my computer on and logged in to Market
Feeder at all times?

Hi
Q1 yes on all 3 points.
There is a learning curve for this software, but your requirement seems quite straightforward and it should not be difficult to convert into a trigger. You can always ask for help on here.

Q2 no - you need to have your PC on with MarketFeeder running and logged on to Betfair for the duration of your trading session.

hi
what is the calculation for the starting price (tennis has no starting price, so the lay price  x seconds/mins before the start), 1.70 to 1.80 = 1.22 lay price.
