Hello Nikolas,

I'm working on your triggers. Could you please clarify the following:

also I would like to green up with 10% profit any team its price is less than 1.60

Do you mean you want to green up a laid selection as soon as its price drops to or below 1.6? Which means it could be loss distribution instead of green-up, if you lay at a higher price than 1.6.

hi,
first i would like you to change the trigger and lay the favor if the back price (on betfair) is higher than the price is on the file i provide .lay price must not behigher  more  than 2 ticks than back price

green up will be done on teams that i lay before the start of the game and back price in betfair was less than 1.60

example

 for team A on betfair the back  price is 1.56  and on  my list is 1.50 so you lay it but since the back  price on betfair was under 1.60 then green up for a profit

if on betfair the back prices was higher  than 1.60 the green up will not been excuted


pls can you also  add also one back trigger

which will  back  the favor only if the back price on betfair is 15% higher compared to the price that is on my file

Hi Nikolas,

Your triggers are ready, see the attached file, however I should make a couple of remarks.

It is a bad idea to import this file from Excel, as Excel itself is slow and takes a lot of memory. I would recommend to do it through a text file. Besides it is not possible to work with the file you attached as the names of selections are not specified.

I have attached a sample of text file ready for import to this message. The market's name should be enclosed in square brackets if the name of a selection is not unique (e.g. The Draw). Please note it must be exactly like BetFair notation. There are three today's football matches in the file for you to try.

See a step-by-step instruction on how to import selections from a file and apply a trigger in this article:
