How do I find highest price when importing selections?

I am importing selections into MF, and I have a trigger set to "Selection's rank is the maximum"

I have just noticed (unfortunately to my cost

) that the trigger only appears to be looking at the maximum rank of selected horses. Thus, horses that are not the outsider of the field as a whole are being bet on when they shouldn't.

How can I set the trigger to look at the rank of all the horses, not just selected ones?

My bets are in the place markets, so I tried to get around this by loading the session as follows:

1) Load the place markets.
2) Import selections.
3) Load Win markets.

I changed the trigger so it uses "Selection's Trigger Expression winplace_sel_order is maximum", but that doesn't seem to work either.

Hi
If you're importing selections from text file, put this as the last line of the text file:
#all_active#
this will keep all other selections active for triggers etc.
make sure your conditions are appropriate if you do this, and please test in test mode.

Also just as an optional suggestion, rather than importing selections, you could keep your selection names in a text file and use these conditions in your trigger in this order:
selections rank is the maximum
and selections name is in file <path to text file>

this will find the highest ranked selection in the market, and then check the selection name is in the file.

Thanks, Mark.

I like the second option, and that also lets me have multiple triggers in the same session - up to now I've had several sessions with different selections imported into each.
