somehow I find new ways to mess up these automations, scripts,whatever. this time I used the global setting " offset bet with greening and trailing stop" . I put a $2 back bet on the horse I wanted at odds of 8.6. the odds were going in my favor and the trailing stop was working as expected but when it went back the other way it placed a lay bet of $5.76 at odds of 7.6. so if my horse won I would get $16 for the win but lose $35 or so with the lay bet? would love to use all these automations but everytime I think I understand this stuff happens. :lol: any help would be really appreciated--Stef

forgot to mention offset was 50 ticks, and stop loss at 5 ticks as in the youtube video, with fixed stake of $2

When using offsets and stops you still need to green the market before the event starts as the exact odds you match at can't be guarenteed.
