Hi, please could you add as a constant;

                Maximum total liability/exposure for each race

to the attached dutching trigger.

Many thanks,

Also, please could you add a daily profit limit, so the trigger stops when x amount of profit is reached, and resets for the next day.

Many thanks.

Hello!

Please see your amended triggers attached. Configure market scheduler in Monitoring Options to run this search every hour.

Use the constants inside the file to adjust the new trigger settings (max_liab, max_profit).

Make sure you've tested the triggers in Test Mode before you switch to real money. I recommend testing triggers in Time Machine, as you can run your strategy by multiple markets in minutes, and the data is very cheap.

If you'd like to make any changes to the original trigger description, please make a new trigger request.

Looking to model the profit/loss from your strategy based on thousands of historical markets? Check BFStats for ready-to-use or bespoke simulation reports. You can prove or disprove your strategy without the risk and hassle of placing real bets.
Always try your triggers in Test Mode before switching to real money!

Hi,

Please could you check the constant - max_profit  it was added to this trigger as part of a trigger request, it does not appear to be working correctly (not resetting).

The max_profit is set to 140.

In the settings, date and time are synchronised with betfair.

I used the trigger over a two day period for the first time.

At the end of the first days betting the profit reached 91.

On the second day the trigger stopped betting with the profit only at 63.

It appears to have not reset on the second day, however it did stop betting when the profit for the two days combined reached 140.

The only error log for the second day appeared around 6 hours after the MF pro app was opened, the trigger was active and the variables were initialised shortly after MF pro was opened.

Please see attached trigger, trigger and error log screenshots.

Kind regards,

Colin Hughes.

Hello!

The triggers will reset the profit counter the next day after it was previously set to stop the trigger.
Therefore, if it stopped today, the next time it will reset will be tomorrow, in line with your initial requirements:

so the trigger stops when x amount of profit is reached, and resets for the next day.

Hope that helps.

Hi Oxa,

My apologies, I wanted the profit counter to reset each day even if the profit target has not been reached, would you be able to change that for me please.

Kind regards,

Colin Hughes.
