Problem with partial matching
« on: 08 Sep 2017, 14:50 »
Hello everybody,

I am new to marketsfeeder. I will quickly explain what I am trying to do:

1. Lay bet on over 2,5 market 

 When  Lay bet is matched :

2.Back bet on over 2,5 market

I have one major problem: in case of partial matching of the lay I dont know how to trigger the back bet.


example: Lay bet responsibility is 10 €. 5 € is matched ---> back bet is not triggered until the other 5 € are matched. I would like instead that back bet is triggered for equal amount.


Any help?

Thank you

Hi
it depends on your backing trigger conditions, but it could be something like this:
TRIGGER
back
price: back_price
amount: bm_laya (this is the last matched lay amount)
condition:
selections lay matched is greater than 0

you can use a cancel lay trigger to cancel the unmatched portion of the lay bet

Thanks for the answer.
With some test I discover that i can use "attempt to green up" to resolve this partial matching, so I try to go deep in the trade.
The real problem comes when it happens another partial matching: at this point I need a trigger that can understand when and how modify the unmatched back, in a few words the trigger has to follow the progressive matching of the lay. 
I think at first to cancel the unmatched back (the back play by the "attempt to green up") but then I realize that it isn't right because I lose the priority in the bets queue.

Hello!

You can use the "Stop-Loss" settings that allow you to specify what you want to do with unmatched bets (i.e. either cancel them or match at the best possible price).
Always try your triggers in Test Mode before switching to real money!
