Exact Hedge On Goals Market

Hi there.

Im placing a bet on O2.5 goals when the game is 0-0 at a specific minute.

Once a goal goes in, is there a way to hedge in a way so that it removes the liability from the market and leaves all of the potential profit on one runner, so, rather than a standard hedge where it spreads the profit evenly across all options, it will put the profit on one runner and leave the other with a £0 profit... Essentially a free bet.

So, for example, let's say we back O2.5 for £5 at a price of 3. Once a goal goes in, said price for O2.5 drops to 1.5. Now normally, the hedge would cash out and spread that over the 2 options... But is there a way so the Bot will LAY the O2.5 market so that there is £0 liability on the U2.5 market and ALL of the profit is sat on the O2.5 market?

Problem is, we can't use a specific price to LAY at as the price is always different every time. Is this possible?

Thank you for your time

At "After bet rules->Hedge" rule tick option to use Close position logic and then test it in simulation mode to confirm that it is working like you want it to.

But does that not just split the profit over both outcomes rather than lump it all on one?

Please read manual for details on how "Close position" logic works and calculates stake:
