Lay horses in play

Hello,

What would I need to consider if I wanted a strategy that took tips of horses to lay but only trigger the strategy during the race if that particular horse odds have drifted by a certain price? For example, if the original tip was loaded into BFBot and during training race the odds drift from 10.00 to 20.00, the strategy would place a lay bet.

Is that possible with bfbot and if so, what conditions would I be looking to build?

Thanks in advance

Tony

Hi Tony,

You can use following Selection conditions:
1. Default bet type
2. Min/max selection price, set it to check prices from before in play and set price range of 10.0 - 20.0
3. Price change - steamers/drifters rule, set it to allow betting only on runners whose price changes by 50%

Adjust "Time to bet" to start betting 0 seconds after market goes in play.

Then test it in simulation mode.
