Hi All,

I have created this trigger but it does not place bet. I don't know why it does not work but everything seems to be fine to me.

Basically, what I want the trigger to do is place Back bet in Place Market on any selection in Win Market whose price has fallen 50% during in-play.

Trigger using is attached.

Any suggestions appreciated.

hi
i cannot test the trigger until tomorrow.
but looking at it you have any other selections
but if you want to place a bet on the selection that has dropped 50% then this should be
selections (100/winplace_r_sel_actual_sp)*(winplace_r_sel_actual_sp-winplace_r_sel_back_price) is equal or greater than 50

try not to use part of the set variables as a variable name
you have used back as your bet amount, back is part of a few set variables.
it would be better to just use ba (short for back amount)

Thanks mcbee,

One thing I am wondering is this portion of trigger, should it be "actual_sp"? or "starting_price"? because I want it to bet in-play when it starts and price drops 50%.

actual_sp is correct.

hi
from my prev post.

try not to use part of the set variables as a variable name
you have used back as your bet amount, back is part of a few set variables.

and it happened
because you gave back a value of 10, it affected the back_price variable, thus giving the back a value of 10 and back_price a value of 10_price.

NEVER use part of the set variables as a new user variable

also the sel has no value so r_sel_ etc  has no selection value.
so your formula should be.
selections trigger expression (100/winplace_actual_sp)*(winplace_actual_sp-winplace_back_price) is equal or greater than wmfs

your bet amount variable needs to be changed to     ba

change these and your trigger will work
