I am guessing the terminology is wrong, but wondered if anybody has encountered this and how to overcome it.
I have a trigger that dutch lays three selections at SP (in-play) and attempts to back them when the price drifts at which point I green-up. This works so if I have three selections with an equal liability of £100 as each selection trades out then the book becomes green selection by selection. So a selection will have a £100 liability which will trade out to give me say £2 green profit leaving the remaining two selections with a £100 liability waiting to trade out (or not).
What I want to do however, is spread that profitable trade across the losing selections to reduce liability. So if one selection has the capability to green-up for £2 I would like to distribute that 'profit' across all layed selections to reduce my overall liability in-play (presumably by placing some back bets).
Now, I thought that distribute-loss would fulfill that for me, but it doesn't seem to work. So either I am executing it badly or doing entirely the wrong thing.
Any help or guidance is appreciated. I hope I haven't made that sound too complicated.
Thanks in advance for looking.
