To confirm, the strategy can not currently check prices on two markets and place a bet on whether one is above or below the other. There's an arb I see sometimes I'd love to automate. If not, can we please suggest it as a future feature? The only way to do it currently is to use two different strategies with different odds ranges?

For example:
Strategy 1A place bet if odds b/w 2.0 and 2.5 on market A AND IF market B odds are 1.5 - 2.0
Strategy 1B place lay bet on market B IF strategy 1A has matched bets on same selection of the same event
Strategy 2A place bet if odds b/w 2.5 and 3.0on market A AND IF market B odds are 2.0-2.5
Strategy 2B place lay bet on market B IF strategy 2A has matched bets on market A on same selection
Repeat for different odds ranges....

OK, thanks; I don't think that will solve the problem, as it's not multiple markets. It's just one lower than another, but without knowing the specific odds, just if it is lower. The rule required in its simplest form is:

IF Market B lay odds are lower than Market B back odds place bet a back bet on Market A and a lay bet on Market B

However, I don't think the software can do that? And I'd need to place a rule for every runner in a horse race due to the "market selection by position" rule? That why I think the multiple strategies set at different odds ranges:

Strat 1A: Market A: Back odds: 2.0-2.50
Strat 1B: Market B lay odds 1.01-2.0
Strat 2A: Market A back odds: 2.5-3.0
Strat 2B: Market B: lay odds: 2.0-2.50
Strat 3A: Market A: Back odds: 3.0-3.5
Strat 3B: Market B: Lay odds: 2.5-3.0

Please correct me if I'm wrong!
