Rade,
apoliges for not starting a new topic!!!

My strategie is to LAY 3.5 goals at the start of play and to green (hedge) after 12 minutes.

the bot is laying both Over and under 3.5 goals.

Hi DickMac,

We need all your strategy details, so please use Export strategy button to export your strategy and then post it here or email it to us.

You probably need to adjust Selection conditions and the way you are setting bet type, but we need to see those setting so that we can recommend changes that you need to make.

Regards,
Rade

Hi DM,

You are using "Default bet type" and this is setting bet type for all selections. This is wrong, please remove this condition. Instead add "Bet type by runner position" and set it to first runner by position if you want to Lay Under X goals or second runner by position if you want to Lay Over X goals.

You should also use Back/Lay ratio and set it to 10% or 15% to ensure prices are valid when bets are placed.

Then try again in simulation mode.

Regards,
Rade

Hi DM,

You need to remove "Default bet type" condition, it is still present in your strategy.

Markets filter is wrong, you need to untick options for only markets with text and without text. That is not needed and it will cause problems. You already selected OVER_UNDER_35 as market type and that is ok.

Please make those changes and try again.

Regards,
Rade

Evening Rade,

Thank you so much for your after sales service. Absolutely first class

The bot is working fine now.

The only other thing I can't work out is how.............

if there is a goal in the first 12 minutes, do I block hedging up, as this will ( hedge red ) which i would like to avoid............ How can I do this?

Regards
DM

Hi DM,

If you want to hedge only at better price then tick option to hedge only at better price at hedge form. You also have options to hedge when price goes up/down by X% so use those options to trigger hedge. That way you can hedge only if price changes in your favor.

Rade

Hi All,

Just and update here, you should also add Min/max price range and add Time to bet to strategy that DickMac posted. Without those two rules strategy could be betting at any time during in play and at very high prices!

Regards,
Rade
