.Sometimes merely posting helps me solve the logic problem in my own head. I have been playing around with stop losses. I have a partial loss (back bet for 50% of stake in this case) that kicks in at 2 ticks down and another full stop(close trade with greening on selection ) at 4 ticks. In this case where I ran a bot in the UK last night a lay bet was place at:
9/24/2020 16:22:45: [G_Auto] : $ 10.00 Lay bet placed on Kingsholm at 3.85. Fully matched at 3.85. ( Fill or kill bet with 10 seconds delay. )
The market moved 2 ticks against me so the partial loss kicked in and set a signal
9/24/2020 16:22:48: [G_Auto] : Automation Signal for market: BackedPL = 1
then the full stop loss kicked in at exactly the same time
9/24/2020 16:22:48: [G_Auto] : Placed closure bet with greening on Kingsholm by Backing 11.00 at 3.5
and the partial one
9/24/2020 16:22:48: [G_Auto] : $ 4.38 Back bet placed on Kingsholm at 3.5. Fully matched at 3.6.
I immediately look to my logic as the issue but I coded for this so can't see the problem.Screenshot
I'm not sure if being Always Armed is the problem but I thought that the 2 sec delay condition between the partial loss signal (BackedPL) and the full stop loss close would suffice?
Probably missed something obvious but can't get my head around it. Advice appreciated. Cheers
..thanks mate. Couldn't see wood for trees there.I accidentally deleted the darn log but am pretty sure that is it.I'll do just that.Cheers pal
