Hi Dazzer979,

After that if you still have problems you should export your strategy and post it here, then we will check it and help you adjust settings so that it works like you want it to.

Hi dazzer979,

Thank you for posting your strategy.

Your settings are very strict e.g. home team must be in price range of 1.01 - 2.0 before in play and you set only 30 second interval to record odds before start time (at strategy Edit->Recording of data form). Set interval for recording prices before start time to 10 or 20 minutes before start time.

You are betting only for 40 minutes during in play, and that is from 20th minute of in play to 60th minute, that is just 25 minutes of first half.

Make sure that Match Odds markets are also loaded, otherwise "Bet if specific market selection" condition will never be satisfied.

I suggest that you remove "Bet if specific market selection..." conditions and set time of bet to 5min after in play and to keep betting for 120 minutes during in play. Once strategy starts placing bets you can make your conditions strict again one by one.

Make sure you use simulation mode to test your strategy.

Regards,
Rade
