New Trigger
« on: 07 Sep 2014, 17:14 »
Hi, Would it be possible to make the following trigger for me to test.

Horse Racing in-play - check the favorite and 2nd favorite back price inplay.

If at any stage in the race the book percentage between the 1st  horse and 2nd horse prices is less than 100% back both horses with proportionate stakes.

for example:- (the trigger is to constantly monitor for the arb with just the 2 horses)
 horse 1 odds are 1.3 = (1/1.36)*100 = 73.5%
 horse 2 odds are 5.5 = (1/5.5)*100 = 18.18%
= 91.68%

place a back bet on each horse proportionate to the odds e.g. horse1 =£80 and horse2 = £19 in the above example of £100 stake (stake to be controlled by a user variable)  - only back when the percentage is below a certain level (to be determine by a user variable)

This forms part of a wider strategy I have but makes up the bulk of it.

Thanks in advance.
Chris

hi
is this correct,  horse 1 odds are 1.3 = (1/1.36)*100 = 73.5%
or should it be 1.3 = (1/1.3)*100 = 76.92
just checking where the 6 come from.
so you want to dutch the first 2 favourite's but only when there book% is below your set value.

Hi, yes sorry an error in my maths! Yes Dutch the first 2 but only when the percentage is at a certain level controlled by a variable.

Thanks

Thanks
