I've been doing a little work on triggering bets in-play and taking either a tick offset or a stop loss. i.e. issuing "BACK-TL9-SL18-IP" or something similar.
I think there is a potential problem with the price request on a stop loss.
Because the movement can be very rapid when a price goes out, in play, although the stop loss is triggered at the correct stop loss price, the bet is not always matched because the price requested is at the same trigger point and by the time the bet is made, the price has dropped further.
It seems to me that there needs to be an option, in this stop loss scenario to request the price at a higher odds value, for example lay odds 3.
Has anybody else had a similar issue/problem?
