Hi all.

I need to do the following in a snooker match:

1. Place a back bet on one player before the match begins.

2. Lay the same player inrunning with predetermined odds and stake which will leave me at 50% profit.

3. Set a stop loss in a way that if it is taken before the original lay bet is matched, the original bet is cancelled.

I will want to do this on a number of simultaneous markets so it won't be possible to have some kind of global setting I don't think.

thanks.

Carrying pre-off bets over to the in-play period risks getting your stop loss triggered. It may be better to make the inplay bet conditional on something like the inplay flag using excel to trigger your bet?
