Conditional Bets Feature

Hi Gary/Mark
Many thanks for the Conditional Bets feature, an excellent addition to the program.
regards Chaser

Agreed. Great concept!


Couple of questions though: once a bet is active, does it transcend all suspension notices until the market is closed?

Also (and i'm probably being a bit thick here) but what is the difference, between 'the last price matched' and the back/lay price please?
I.E. why 3 criterion as opposed to 2 (back & lay).




Cheers.

Hi Filo
Pleased that you also value this new feature.
Not sure about your first point, Gary or Mark will obviously clarify that.
There is a definite advantage in having 'last price matched' option :-

If you have got a Lay bet and have set up a Conditional Back bet as a Stop Loss, and 'in-running' the odds are falling so as to trigger the stop loss, the 'last matched' odds will be either Back or Lay, and in some cases it will be a Lay bet (higher odds ) last matched, which means you are stopped out of the bet at higher odds which can be a real advantage in containing a loss.

Hope you can follow my explanation.

Has the problem that there was with the alpha version been sorted ? This was where the program "topped" it own price, if you, say, laid at best back price + 1 tick.
