Calculated stake is profit for Back bets and Liability or amount to win

Hello,

I would like make back bets where the amount bet is proportional to both the odds and a percentage of the total account funds. I have been trying to do this with a combination of the staking rules: Percent of betting bank (set to "your account funds are betting bank") and Liability or amount to win (set to "Amount to win is used"). However, it always just places a percentage of the betting bank irrespective of the odds and the order of the staking rules.

Is this possible or is the only way to do this is with a staking ladder?

You are trying to place BSP bets but BSP price is unknown, so strategy cannot adjust stake when it does not know the odds. What you are doing is not possible.

Please use simulation mode to test different settings and to see how they work.

Is it possible to calculate the stake for a back bet in proportion to the best currently available back price and then place a BSP bet using the calculated stake?

Please can you give me at least a rough idea of how to do this?

Use following rules:
1. Level/initial stake
2. Liability or amount to win, tick option to use amount to win for Back bets
3. Bets persistence, set it to place BSP bets

Then try it out in simulation mode.
