Going Behind - Race status return always false
« on: 19 Aug 2016, 21:45 »
I need to close a backing bet with a laying bet to greening or distribuite red.
I'm using the formula back_matched*(bm_backavp/lay_price)

All is working well however i need to Place a lay bet near the starting race.

My first attemp is to set market condition Minute Before The Off 0.5 , is working but some racing meeting are delayed also by 2-3 minutes.

The idea is using Going Being Status Race but this parameter return me always false.


The MF is checked to download race status and i can vie the right status near the clock.
In attachment there is the trigger, where i'm wrong ?

Hi
I've tested this and can confirm there is a small bug with the race status conditions.
Going Behind executes At The Post
At The Post executes Going Behind
I will raise a Support Ticket for this.

Regarding your trigger, I think the time condition gives a very narrow window, and I think you should widen the window for the race status. My suggestion would be:
remove markets minutes before the off is less than 0.5
and in place of the status condition, use:
and selections trigger expression race_status is between 4 and 6
so your trigger will execute as soon as: At The Post / Going Behind / Under Orders

OK thank's for you reply.

Infact my first trigger is without minute before the off, but in this case the trigger make immediate bet, like you notice "Going Behind executes At The Post".

No problem for this i can wait a fix, i can't fire the bet at the post because i need to place bet  only 30-60 second before the effective start of the race.
For now i had removed the option of race status and set minute before the off 0.3

The last option is to fire a lay bet in play, maybe using SP like indicator.
