STEAMERS/DRIFTERS - my scenario isn't working properly
Posted: Mon Jul 14, 2025 10:12 pm
My problem concerns STEAMERS/DRIFTERS
I designed a scenario that uses ODDS increases - unfortunately, it doesn't meet my expectations; I think I set the parameters incorrectly.
My basic HORSE RACING settings:
Min/Max selection price: Any runner, BACK price, ODDS range 4.0-6.0 (check prices from before in play)
Price change - Steamers/Drifters:
Drifter condition: BACK price goes up by 45% or 50 ticks (in three separate scenarios, I set the ODDS to increase by 45%, 100%, and 140%).
What are the effects of my settings?
1) All three scenarios bought BACK bets at ODDS of 5.8, even though they have different ODDS increase percentages set (45%, 100%, and 140%).
2) Bets were bought in the range of 4.0-6.0 (ODDS of 5.8) even though the maximum amount of money could be bought at ODDS 9.0 (I checked this)
-------------------------
How the scenario should work correctly:
1) Set the ODDS range to 4.0-6.0 (the calculations below are for a minimum odd of 4.0)
2) If the ODDS increase:
a) by 45% - the scenario buys a BACK bet at ODDS of no less than 5.8
b) by 100% - the scenario buys a BACK bet at ODDS of no less than 8.0
c) by 140% - the scenario buys a BACK bet at ODDS of no less than 9.6
3) If the ODDS suddenly rise to 12.0 - all 3 scenarios buy the bet at this price
Please help me set the parameters correctly. Thank you in advance.
