Hi,

Every time I set the time to bet rule, it instantly triggers even when it's after 7am, and no bets are ever placed. This can be seen in the "Time to Bet" attachment, where it's meant to start at 7am each morning, and stop betting at 11pm every night.

The clock in the program itself is correct and doesn't seem to be off from the computers system time, which can be seen in the clock attachment. Daylight saving settings etc are also set.

Am I using this rule wrong?

Thanks

Never mind, it started working correctly when I made the strategies on another computer and exported them to this one!

Hi Jm30x,

You should also tick option "Start betting before in play N minutes" and set it to bet 30seconds or 1 minute before official start time when market prices are formed.

Rade

I'm using the inplaytrading stats to bet between a certain time frame in the game. Is that okay, or must the "start betting N minutes before in play" also be ticked here?

Thanks

If you want to bet during in play at specific period then you need to tick "Start betting N minutes after market goes in play" and "Keep betting in play".

For example, start betting 30 minutes after market goes in play and keep betting in play for 45 minutes would allow strategy to bet between 30th and 45th minute of in play.

Rade
