I know you can get the software, but does anyone know the calculation to work out your stake for an all green or red? Thanks in advance.

To calculate the stake required, it is the (original price/lay price required)*Stake.

eg.
You have backed a horse for £50 at 5.0 for a potential profit of £200
The odds drop to 4.0 so you can now green up by laying the horse. To calculate the stake divide 5.0 by 4.0 and multiply by the original stake = £62.50, liability = £187.50.
You now have a guaranteed profit of £12.50 whatever the result.

Thanks all. Think i've got it now, just playing around to see if it works if odds go against you.

Download a free API to do it for you.

Geeks Toy is completely free but I think bet angel and bet trader do a free version, while they used too.
