What is the variable which allows me to back a selection if the price 30seconds before the off is less than or equal to the price which I have laid the selection at.

Basically I want to lay a selection for £2 on my mobile.
Then the trigger 30seconds before the off works out if the price has come in (shortened) and if so back it for £10.

Cannot for the life of me work out what variable to use!

hi,

your trigger should back the horse if its back price now is equal or lower than the matched lay price, at 30 seconds to the offtime.

You need to clarify how much the price has to drop below the matched layprice.

The condition is Selections back_price is equal or less than  bm_layp
In the attached example I have put the drop at 5 ticks. If you put it too close you might get bounced in and then out again, but thats up to you to decide. The r_ticks calculates the current price ticks.

I have not tested this at all, so test it before you use it.
Good luck

Hi
See my attached trigger that I created earlier.

Basically I have tried it and it does not seem to work with the variable you have said (?)

Basically I will play a £2 lay in the morning on the selection I want to look at.
If between 30seconds and the off the price is the same or lower than that which I have placed the £2 lay at, then to back it for £200.

Hope that makes sense.

You didn't attach the trigger file earlier. Attach it and someone will help

Hi,

It worked for me ok. Look up the trigger files and see what error you are getting

Reason was that in my old trigger I had it to be between bm_layp and 1.57 instead of between 1.57 and bm_layp (doh!)

 

Please note, BetFair is seems to be currently OFFLINE
