Use Win odds for Each Way bet

Hi again.

Is it possible to use Win odds for Each Way bet?

I'm trying to set up a strategy where if a horse is at odds of above 20 in the Win market, I place an EW bet. Is this possible?

Only solution is to create strategy that will bet on that selection at Win market if it satisfies all the rules and then to create second strategy that will use "Selection conditions->Only if specified strategy has bets" to bet on same selection if first strategy has matched bet on that selection.

Please test it in simulation mode.

Hi,

I made Each way bet as was offered. Unfortunately there was no outpay for the Placed horse in the Simulation, only the winner got money. Why? Please check the attached screenshots, EW bets!
In Betfair exchange the first two horses were paid.
Best regards

Jimny

Simulated bets are settled by bot and to do that bot uses winner/loser information that receives from Betfair. There is no placed status, so bot is unable to settle each way bets properly in case that runner does not win.

Thank you for your answer!

Is it working same way in Real Mode? If yes, do you plan to fix this winner/loser/placed method?

In real mode bets are settled by Betfair, so there are no problems in real mode.
