Hello. In MF there is window with my bets and sources of this bets (which trigger placed the bet). Are there variables for this information? Or other possibilities how to get this information? Thanks

Hi, I am not sure exactly what you are referring to, or what you want to see. Are you talking about the program log or the user variables table?

If you want to view variables you can add them in the user variables table, it is here for example I track, wins/losses balance total won, and market variables such as winner name (this alters as you click into different settled markets). 

Then for example if I am running my ew trebles triggers- I have all the different variables that I track for the win and place stakes as each leg settles so I can see how much will be going onto the next horse in each treble

Do either of these fit what you are after, if not can you please expand on what you would like to see, and where you are currently looking

OK, thanks for the clarification, so what extra information are you looking for, what is it you are trying to do, or want to see?

I can't find a variable that references the bid source. For example, how to find which bets was placed by trigger "Back" and price of this bet

Thank you. I found it. But log not resolve problem. I can't reffer to log information in trigger expressions. So, I can't, for example, use condition: bets placed by trigger "Back" is greater then 0, or bets prices placed by trigger "Lay" is equal to lay_price etc.

I still don't think I understand what you are trying to do yet.

The program log lists the bet placed, what price they were placed at and which trigger placed the bets. If you click on the trigger logs tab you can see the status of all of the conditions for each trigger. see screenshot.

But if you want to use these conditions to make decisions on future bets you need to put these conditions and logic into the triggers themselves.

But how to put this information from log to Trigger? What I must to write in trigger expression in order to get log information. For example, if I want to return amount of matched bets I write bm_laya. And what I must write in order to get information from log. For example, I want to write in trigger expression how many bets was placed by trigger "Back". Or what was the last price placed by trigger "Back"?

This is quite difficult to explain without knowing what you are trying to do. The point is it is very easy for you to create variables and work with trigger expressions and conditions to get to what you want to do.

But the difficult part is designing the structure and approach in order to get there.

So whilst you state you want to write a trigger expression on how many bets were placed by trigger "back" or what was the last price placed by trigger back, without knowing why you need that information and what you plan to do with it, it is very difficult to answer your question.

For example are you talking about the number of times the "back" trigger has placed bets in one specific market? If so, is there a maximum number of times you want it to have run in the market? The fundamental question is still what do you want to use the answer to the question for?

The point I am trying to make is - if you are looking for a way to just display information so that you can see what is happening, (which I presume not as you said the program and trigger logs were not what you were after.)  or if you need to know the answer so the trigger can make a follow on decision - which I am assuming is the case.
