Hi all,

I'm totally new to bet angel so have downloaded betdaq version to help me learn.

This may well be a daft question but if i don't ask i may never know.

If i was to, for example, lay under 2.5 goals with a trailing stop loss and a goal went in: would my stop loss get matched?

Thanks in advance.

Your stop loss should be triggered but doesn't mean it'd be matched that'd depend on the settings you'd put in. If it was the third goal the market would be closed and too small a stop loss and the market may go well past the odds you request when it opens so you don't get matched straight away if at all.

Thanks for the reply.

I was thinking of setting a trailing stop loss from the start of a game and if a goal went in early it would be there as a safety net. My worries were that once market suspends and re-opens i wouldn't get my stop loss matched and end up possibly losing much more than expected.

Like i say it's all new to me so apologies if I'm not fully grasping it.
