    input a a file with the name of the horse ,back price and backing amount.( see attached file)

     3 hrs before the race goes inplay start monitoring the market and if the back price of any of the selections is equql or greater tha the back price as it is on the file then back the selection with the amount as it been show on the file.

    if there is any unmatched bet 20 seconds before the start of the race then matched it at the best price

  • Hello!

    You will need to slightly change the conditions of your trigger: there is no need to use Excel in this case, you can use a simple text file and import the required values from it.

    Just save your Excel file in CSV format using the Tab character as a separator. You will need to enclose each horse's name in double quotes. See the sample file attached.

    Then add all the markets where you intend to trade that day and import the text file into MF Pro using the "Import selections for auto-trading" button. See a tutorial video on how to import selections from a text file.

    After the program imports your horses and greys out the rest of them, run the attached triggers.

    Make sure you have tested the triggers in Test Mode. Also, in "Monitoring Options", set "Start monitoring events at 180 mins before the beginning".

  • hi,
    there are two problems with trigger

    1) puts back bet only when the price is equal or greater therefore there is no unmatched bets

    2) the second part works on in play if there are unmatched bets

    what i want the trigger to do is to bet based on the value and price that i provide .so if there is one horse that the price is less than mine the trigger must fire and the bet to be unmatched

    thx

  • You are giving conflicting instructions. See below:

    and if the back price of any of the selections is equql or greater tha the back price as it is on the file

    Quote
    so if there is one horse that the price is less than mine the trigger must fire

    These mean the opposite things.

    Please check them again and formulate the final requirement.
