hi all. I want to make sure that my automation only places a lay bet if the selections back bet is within a certain range of the lay bet. For instance if the selection is BACK PRICE: 17 LAY PRICE: 21 -exclude this one. If BACK PRICE: 17 LAY PRICE 18 take this one. I currently have a relative odds condition that says, " the selections lay price is equal to the selections back price plus 1 odds" but I'm not sure if that will make the automation pick a minimum of one odd higher or exactly 1 odd higher. any help would be great--ty

The answer is in the question... " the selections lay price is equal to the selections back price plus 1 odds" ;)

ok so how would I word it if for example the starting back price is 10 and I'll accept any lay price 11 or less. (10.5 included) .

Lay price less than back price plus 1.1 ( or whatever the smallest increment is above 1)

So if the back price is 10.
Back price plus 1.1 is 11.1.
If lay price is less than 11.1 it is included.
