How many active triggers?
« on: 06 Sep 2015, 11:04 »
Hi
How many active triggers there can be working simultaneously?
Just one or maybe more?
I'd like to test MFP's build in triggers but don't know if just one works at a time.

hi
as many as you need, but the more triggers you have active, the more time it takes to place the bet, it is ok before in-play because the prices change slow, in-play the less triggers active the quicker the bet is placed and the better price taken.

You can open several instances of the program with a different profile and trigger.  Or you can open one copy and have several  triggers loaded that will work independently.  For sample you could have a horse race backing trigger and a separate laying trigger

With one instance of the program and the same sport in several tirggers, there is a potential problem if the strategy employs staking as all bets placed on your live account will show on the screen and may cause staking problems, although these can be easily avoided by careful trigger programming.

Thank you for the answers, Mcbee and Rubold.
Next question:
How to unload the triggers to be sure they don't continue betting when I don't wan't to?

hi
if you do not want the triggers to be active then press the left mouse button over the green lamp next to triggers at the top of mfp bot screen, it will change to red and all triggers will NOT be active until you change it to green.
