I am trying to lay in the place markets if the price in the win markets is < 10.

In the trigger in the Place Markets I am using the following

AND        Trigger expression      winplace_back_price          is less than    10

...but this does not appear to work. Please see below.


Can you ascertain why not? Thank you.

hi
looking at the log, the trigger should have placed 2 bets in the place market.

i would have to see your trigger to be able to test it and see why it failed to place the bets.

Hi Mcbee

It did, but it shouldn't.

I am looking for selections in the Win market that are < 10 (and lay them) and, also, lay 'em in the Place market.

I am trying to do this in the Place market (with the Win market loaded, of course) with the following

AND        Trigger expression      winplace_back_price          is less than    10

Being in the Place market I thought it would look to the Win market and, if < 10, lay it.

You can see in the Win market Miss Ella Jade is 17.50 and Landaho is 480; therefore the trigger in the Place market should not be laying them.

But:

Checking condition: and  Trigger Expression winplace_back_price is less than 10
Condition is true. valid for 2 selections: Miss Ella Jade, Landaho.


No, we can see it is not valid for these 2 selections; they are at 17.50 and 480.

So why 'Condition is true' ??

Thanks for any help.
cheers

Please find attached.

You will have to link the text file in the conditions.

For testing you may wish to add more selections...

Thank you.

hi
please confirm that you are using v6.
i have tested your triggers and they work as they should.
only placing the lay bets if the price is correct.
the only problem that i can see is, IF the win market prices vanished/reset/etc by betfair or the internet connection failed for a split second, then the place lay would be activated due to the price of the selections not been available.
to stop this happening again then alter the condition
AND        Trigger expression      winplace_back_price          is less than    10
TO
AND        Trigger expression      winplace_back_price          is between   1  and    10
this will only place the bet if there is a price available.
i have altered the triggers
