Is it possible to create a strategy as per below:

At the start of a football match place a back bet on the selection named "0 - 0" in a Correct Score market.

At the same time use 95% of the expected profit from this "0 - 0" bet to place a lay bet on "The Draw" in a Match Odds market of the same game. I.e. back £10 at 12 on "0 - 0", that makes £110 expected profit. Then lay on "The Draw" at 3.5: 110*0.95 / (3.5 - 1) = £41.8.

Hi goldenway,

It is not possible to do this in one strategy, you would need to strategies where one bets on match odds market and second one bets on correct score market.

It is not possible for one strategy to know potential profit of another strategy. You would need to set correct score market strategy to go for fixed target profit. Then set lay the draw strategy to place Lay bet with fixed stake.

Rade
