At the begining : triggers & rearming

[KISS]

Hi all,
First post but expect its a common query;

Literally 1 trigger rearmed after 5 secs means to me that an order was sent into the market at a specified time (trigger1) and another will go in after 5 secs if original order not matched ....or am I wrong?

If I want sys to follow that logic what/where do I input such instructions

Also what happens to an unmatched order if another order goes into the market , if I do not control that by situation, with say 1 trigger , rearm after 5 secs then (thus firing in an order ever 5 secs until 1 selection achieved) what / where does that/ those fields exist?

I know there are videos and I have spent several hours reviewing them but even with an ERP background, this dummy is struggling ATM to achieve desired path of a simple rule ; one horse selection , vison lay fav to loose send 1 order every 5 secs until 1 selection achieved then kill all unmatched orders.

Anyone's advise will be appreciated , from down under

1 trigger means it will trigger just one time (regardless of the rearm time used)

If you want it to keep triggering until a bet or a number of bets are matched then first increase these triggers, on the parameters tab you can use fill/kill (in conjunction with your rearm time )to ensure no more than one is in the market at the same time.
ie rearm every 7 secs and use fill/kill 6 secs which means the previous bet will be gone by the time the next is triggered.

To stop it once a bet or X number of bets are matched use the following condition
number of matched bets condition
is equal 0

(that basically means only allow it to trigger if there is 0 matched bets - as soon as 1 is matched this condition can no longer be met therefore no more trigger)

Thanks Dallas
That advised cleared up a few things and I have signed on for a year

Can one use rearming under 1 sec in horse running in play?

If I put for example rearming every 0.5 sec and fill/kill every 0.3 sec will that work?
Of course I know that the refresh rate has to be 200 ms in this case.

Sometimes the bets don't get matched and in this case it would be useful for the trigger to move on to the next bet as fast as possible.

Quickest rearm is 1 second, and its recommended you use no less than 0.5 secs for your Fill or kill

I have used the Trigger Only Once rule so my automation triggers only once if there are multiple events starting at the same time such as in football games.

I did notice however that after the game that the rule had triggered in the first place was over, the rule did not trigger again.

Is there a way to reset the Trigger Only Once rule so it fires again at another qualifying game?

[fingers21]

I think I made a pig's ear trying to explain what I am trying to do so let me try once more

I have a football automation that will place a win bet if there is a qualifier in the market and it will not place another bet until the previous game is over.

My problem is that if there are more than 1 qualifying markets starting at the same time the rule will trigger and place a bet on all markets rather than just the first qualifying one.

So my question is: How can I set up the automation rule in such a way as to only trigger once if there are more than one qualifying markets starting at the same time?

You would have to use a signal or stored value at 'Bet Angel' level with the shared box ticked to tell it not to trigger on other markets.

FYI, a specific example of how levels work if you're trading on Man Utd to win;
'Selection level' would apply to Man Utd to win
'Market level' would apply to Man Utd vs Arsenal match odds market
'Event level' would apply to all Man Utd vs Arsenal markets
'Bet Angel level' would apply to all markets loaded into Guardian

Thanks jamesedwards. I have added a signal at market level but still places bets on more than one market if the kick off is at the same time.

I will try using a stored value instead see if it makes a difference.

You need to use Bet Angel level.

eg make a stored value at Bet Angel level = 1 when a trade has been triggered then = 0 once that market has closed. Then make a condition that the stored value must be 0 for a new trade to trigger.
