How does the bot calculate this ?

It seems to be placing bets when it shouldn't.

Hi bartlett1982,

It is unclear to which option and bot you are exactly referring to.

If you are using Multiple Favorites price change option then bot is using Tools->Settings->Min/max recorded price settings and current price to determine price change and decide if bets should be placed or not.

Apologies that post was a bit vague.

I am trying to set the bot to place a bet after a 5% price change.

The recorded price was 2.82 and the matched price was 2.92

That's not 5 %

Any ideas, or am I missing something ?

Hi bartlett1982,

Price change is calculated by deducting 1.0 from price, so that price change of 100% gives you odds of 1.0 and not 0 (zero).

So 5% change from price 2.82 is:
(2.82 - 1.0) * 0.05 = 0.091

2.82 + 0.091 is less than 2.92 and bet was placed properly.
