I am progressing slowly - the example triggers prove the functionality. The simple examples are good and I'm getting triggers to back and lay, so it's not all bad.
I want to restrict my trigger to 'n' numbers of runners. Simple you say - it's there in the manual as a Market Variable, runner_number.
Well the trigger doesn't list runner number to add it to a condition. If I add a trigger condition runner_number isn't an option.
I can create a constant num_runners and set it to 'n,' say 14
Then Markets Number of selections Is equal or less than num_runners. But is that correct because it doesn't seem to be working.
Are selections' are used to describe the field size? But surely a selection is an individual runner, as in I select the favourite to win?
I may have made 4 selections - that's not the number I want, I want to know if there are more than 14 runners in the market/event.
The choice of terminology is probably linked to the fact that MFP can be used in many sports, but it's confusing the hill out of me.
Don't misunderstand me - this is one comprehensive bot and well worth the learning curve.
