The bot has been made to 'close the trade' so uses the same stake for the lay as it did for the back bet, if you want to spread the profit equally across all runners (rather than have a larger profit on just the runner traded you would need to 'green up'. this thread explains the difference between the twozanpo wrote:I am very confused about this "free bet" situation, and why I only get the profit in my account only if the horse wins. As I understand the bot trades the horse, places a back bet and then a lay bet for a number of ticks. And if we get both bets matched we have a profit in our hands for this particular horse. And why do we receive this profit only if the horse wins?

In the image attached it looks like you have now edited the bot and told it to green-up rather than just close the trade so is now spreading the profits equally by laying a few pence more than its backing with.
