Trading in the same market
« on: 22 Nov 2018, 13:52 »
Hi,

Wondering if anyone can help (I have tried a lot of things already) but what I want to do is trade in the same market, so for example Footy CS, so I place a back bet on current score say 0 - 0, then place a tradeout bet, if at any point the tradeout bet isn't matched and  goal is scored, then cancel tradeout bet, put another back bet in on the new scoreline and repeat the process.

Needless to say I already have a trigger that does all this, but I cant get it to place a tradeout bet on the next scoreline when back bet is placed, it see's (in test mode) theres another bet and tells me none of the selections qualify for a green up.

If anyone can help shed some light on this please, and do the back bets (losing ones) disappear whilst in real mode?

hi
in your attempt to green up trigger you should have , and selections back matched is greater than 0 , trigger set to once per selection , this should then place a green up bet on any selection that has a back bet on it.
the other way is to use , and trigger (name of backing trigger) number of runs per selection is greater than 0 , trigger set to once per selection , this should then place a green up bet on any selection that the backing trigger bets.

Hi mcbee,

I do have that condition on the green up trigger, only thing I noticed was that "Against Last Matched Bet" was unchecked. hopefully checking this it wll work now but only time will tell.

hi
thank you.
please check the back price placed/matched 1.01 , you cannot green this.
maybe your trigger is placing back bets before the market is stable , thus backing at very low odds .
