You are setting bet type on all selections by using "Default bet type". You need to remove that rule. Please watch video tutorial #7 Bet types that explains this in detail:

Thanks, I've removed default and the strategy hasn't placed one bet! I now remember why i put default rule in, I was trying anything to place a bet. Do you know why it hasnt placed a bet?
Thanks
Andrew

Hi Andrew,
Your other rules might not be satisfied or offer during in play is very bad e.g. Back/Lay Ratio might not be satisfied, change it to 50% or 100%, Overrounds too are probably very bad during in play on US horse races so change them to 150/50%.
When one selection has price lower than 1.05 then the race is about to finish and offer on that race is very bad, so you might need to remove overrounds to make this work.
Also, if you wish to bet on first favorite only when second favorite is in price range then you should use "MARKET conditions->Min/max REQUIRED price for selection" to check price rnage of second favorite by position.
Please read manual for details on each rule before you use it:

Thanks for the advice. I've removed overrounds and the ratio but the strategy has still not placed bets. I don't understand, I had a similar strategy working a couple of weeks ago but something with the bot has fundementally changed since.
I am lost.

2. log file
3. screenshots of MARKETS grid view
and we will check it all.
