Trigger works but only partly, help!
« on: 07 May 2018, 13:33 »
I am using in my trigger file the feed-prices-to-excel trigger together with a back trigger.

The back trigger uses an imported list of selections for Australian horse races.

The trigger takes a selection and also a numeric value that modifies the bet amount.

In the attached selection file (sels.txt) I noticed that the trigger worked correctly for all the selections for the track with label Gunnedah but failed for all of the selections for track Wangaratta.

The selection file headings are : selection, indicator, bet factor, horse name, race number.

Attached is also the trigger file, benko_trigger.mft.

Any suggestions as to how to get my trigger working fully are appreciated!

Too little data to make any suggestions.
Please attach the log of the trigger for the markets where it failed to work.
Always try your triggers in Test Mode before switching to real money!

Hi Oxa,

Yesterday selections from only one of the two possible tracks were backed.
Today I ran the same trigger file, this time no bets were made at all.

I have attached the logs as you suggested.

Any advice welcome!

FYI my sequence of steps was:

  1. Prepare a text file of selections.
  2. Open my Excel workbook.
  3. Fire up MFPro and wait for markets to load,
  4. Click Launch Excel button
  5. Check correct trigger file is loaded and activated.
  6. Import selections for auto-trading (only once).

Today my selection list had selections for 5 tracks, one selection per race for all races.
Selections for only one track were correctly backed.
Triggers log file attached.
Any idea what is the problem?
Is it possible the 'feed prices to excel' triggers are somehow in conflict with the back trigger?
Tomorrow I will run a separate profile for these and see if that helps.

Unfortunately, you attached the log for the wrong trigger.

You need the trigger that actually places the bets, that is "New Trigger 96041372334963654". Check the logs of that trigger to see which condition is not being satisfied.
