Are you putting the whole trigger in quotes or just BACK?
Trigger looks ok to me but must be entered like:
"BACK-TLx-SLx","" - and not - "BACK"-TLx-SLx,"" (x=number)
Maybe I'm wrong - just trying to help. Works as above for me.

1) Is your trigger being constructed with a formula? If so could you post the formula?
2) Are you changing markets before the back bet is matched?

When the game is off the program change Market on quick list.
Backed Skye But N Ben @ odds:4.4, stake:2 (Excel BACK Triggered: Odds:4.4 Stake:2 Tick offset:5 Fill or kill:-1)
Layed Skye But N Ben @ odds:3.95, stake:2 (Tick offset bet, final offset bet, Odds:3.95, Stake:2, Ticks:5)

Is this market change definitely after the BACK bet has been matched?
After the back bet has been placed check the transaction log under the account menu. There should be a an entry with a description similar to the following.Backed Skye But N Ben @ odds:4.4, stake:2 (Excel BACK Triggered: Odds:4.4 Stake:2 Tick offset:5 Fill or kill:-1)

What is displayed in your log?

The strength of Gruss Software is that it’s been designed by one of you, a frustrated sports punter, and then developed by listening to dozens of like-minded enthusiasts.
Gruss is owned and run by brothers Gary and Mark Russell. Gary discovered Betfair in 2004 and soon realised that using bespoke software to place bets was much more efficient than merely placing them through the website.
Gary built his own software and then enhanced its features after trialling it through other Betfair users and reacting to their improvement ideas, something that still happens today.
He started making a small monthly charge so he could work on it full-time and then recruited Mark to help develop the products and Gruss Software was born.
We think it’s the best of its kind and so do a lot of our customers. But you can never stand still in this game and we’ll continue to improve the software if any more great ideas emerge.
