Trigger + ?

Postby mak » Fri Nov 04, 2011 8:52 pm

I set a trigger like this
if(t5>0,"CLEAR",if.....,"BACK-TL1-F10-SL1-L"

I want to clear the betref (t5) only if my position is closed (win or lose)

Any ideas how?

I found this in BA Help
Added extra data column to Excel. "Offset bet matched" = Y if tick offset bet fully matched or = N if not matched.

So when that cell turns to Y, it is a flag that my offset bet matched.

What happens next?
If I reformat my formula into =if(and(T5>0,Y5="Y"),"CLEAR",if.....,"BACK-TL1-F10-SL1-L"

Someone please?

Hi Mak

One way I CLEAR my bet in Excel is monitoring the Matched Stake in Column W.

So If my stake is £5, I do not clear the Bet Ref until W5=5
So in your case the formula would be using a £5 stake
IF(T5>0,W5=5,"CLEAR",IF.....,"BACK-TL1-F10-SL1-L"
So if the bet was only partially matched for £3.44 the "CLEAR" function would not fire because W5=3.44

I presume by clearing the Bet Ref it would trigger again if all the criteria in the formula are met.

Cheers

Thanks Castillo it is now working.

Can you or someone else advise (it is the last thing i hope) how can I add a CANCEL trigger in my formula..?

for example I want to Cancel my bet if col G5 is less than 100

I don't know which is the right order for the trigger

IF(T5>0,W5=5,"CLEAR",if(g5<=100,"CANCEL)",IF.....,"BACK-TL1-F10-SL1-L"

Is the above right?

With G5<=100,"CANCEL" it would still cancel the bet if it was partially matched, if you don't want this to happen you could add W5=0

So you would have G5<=100,W5=0,"CANCEL"

Sports betting software from Gruss Software


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.
