  • Using % bank staking in staking and tools menu

    Hi all,

    Not sure this is in the right place but i will give it a shot.

    Does anybody have any idea how i can set back staking and lay staking amounts in "staking and tools" to a percentage of bank amount?

    Instead of having it as a set amount?

    The only way I can have each runner as say 5% of my bank is by clicking on every race, every runner i wish to trade, and selecting the percentage amount - which is a bit of a bind..

    Thanks all

    Tuco

    I do not believe it is possible to do this. If you start with a bank of £ 100 and place your first at 5%, your remaining bank will now £ 95. Now, your second bet will be 5% of £ 95 and so on. The Toy knows this and does the betting properly. It does not, however, have the ability to automate the sequence of events and individual placement of bets is necessary. The bank amount is not constant but is a variable and what you want to do can only be achieved by automation.

      I have reread your question and have decided that I don't understand it. All initial bets have to made individually using The Toy so what is it that is a "bind" ?

        I have a set amount in the staking and tools menu. Say 10 pounds.

        That amount then appears in the stake box every time I open a ladder.

        If i want 5% of my bank in the ladder i have to manually adjust every runner.

        I would like the toy to open with a specified % of bank, whatever the bank is AT THE TIME OF OPENING THE MARKET.

          I understand. Sadly, although I have tried on a couple of races, I cannot make the stake box retain percentage values and you will have to rely on one of the boffins hereabout answering you.

            Yes, if the stake box could hold the % from market to market that would do the trick!!!

              This is one of the few alterations to The toy which would be of use. Countless daft ones are made but this does seem to have merit.

                Instead of adjusting each runner individually, right-click the percentage you require to adjust all runners simultaneously.

                I hope I have understood you correctly, and this saves you some time.

                  Thanks darkhorse, that improves things a little.

                  Still wondering if there is a way to load a predetermined % automatically.

                  Also using a % that isnt on the list ie 4%

                    I agree that this feature would be useful, but I do not believe it is available...

                    At present I work out my default stake (as a percentage) at the beginning of every session, and use that for every market going forward.
