Stake calculation
« on: 03 Apr 2018, 16:40 »
Hi
Trying to get this to work.
The constants and variables are set, basically I want the calculated loss to be divided by 4 then stake calculated to recover that 1/4 and add initial bet

IF((current_loss/(back_price-1))/(1-commission)+init_bet>max_bet,max_bet,

IF(current_loss=0,init_bet,

((current_loss/4)/(back_price-1)+init_bet)/(1-commission)))

I have split it to show the if stages of the calculation.
Doesn't seem to want to play the game.
Any help?
Mike

hi
whoop''s.
sorry i had to laugh about this one , i have done the same mistake many times .
you have set currentloss variable ok.
BUT you the use in the win market   IF((current_loss/(back_price-1))/(1-commission)>max_bet,max_bet,IF(current_loss=0,init_bet,((current_loss/4)/(back_price-1))/(1-commission)))

notice the error   ,  SET  currentloss            
you now use in the win trigger   current_loss  , so  current_loss has no value because you set the variable currentloss  without the  _  .
done that , bin there got the tee shirt .
you are learning and that is what we are here to help with  , ok we do triggers for those that do not have the time to learn because of work , i learned the hard way so i understand .
