Auto Take Sp Help

[Banthorpe]

Hiya All

I am trying to sort out a bot and strugling with getting an accurate Take Sp. If I place a £500 Back Bet at say 2 and it comes in a few ticks or goes out for that matter I am trying to just take the liability out, so f I place a £500 Lay Bet at 1.01 with take Sp ticked it doesnt seem to get taken at all, it just seems to cancel it and if I put the £500 lay at say 1.5 with take sp ticked it doesnt just take out the liablty leaving me with a green running on the selection so not sure what I am missing Any help please

When placing a lay bet for SP the liability at the initial odds is used no matter what the SP odds are.
So if you lay £50 @ 2.0 and take SP, then the SP is 2.10 a stake of £45.45 is used (so as to still achieve the same £50 liability)

The minimum liability for an SP lay bet is £10
£500 @ 1.01 is only £5 so that will of been rejected by Betfair as an SP bet

Not at the moment, possibly something for a future build, it would require referencing the greened-up Profit value then placing that as an SP back bet on the fav
