There is a list of popular staking plans in our Trigger Examples (which, by the way, you can help extend by emailing to our support).
The trigger files are available for download and immediate testing in MF Pro. To download and save the file, right-click on the link that starts with "Right-click here to download the trigger file". Then select the "Save As" or "Save Target As" option (this depends on the type of your browser) and save it as a file on your hard disk. The location does not matter.
Having done that, open MF Pro and press the "Triggers" button:

When the triggers window opens, press "Open" button to load the file you just saved.

After the file loads, it is theoretically ready to test. Just close the triggers window, make sure you have activated Test Mode and start refreshing markets.
We recommend you to also watch our video lesson "How to test staking plans".
Once you understood the idea behind a staking plan, you may want to change it or apply it to a different trigger than the one in the example. For instance, the example may back on the favourite, whereas you want to back on the third favourite at 1 minute before the off.
To adjust the example file to your needs is quite easy.
First of all, almost all staking plan examples are built so that the trigger that actually places a back or lay bet is always positioned in the end of the list. See below:

So that's the first clue you should look for. Usually the other triggers do not need to be changed at all, as a staking plan ought to work in the same way for any market or selection it is applied to.
If the amendments you are going to do are easy and fast, like change the selection and add one condition, then just do it on the spot -choose a different option from the drop-down list, press "Edit" button next to "Conditions" and add the required conditions. Then save the triggers.

You can immediately check if you did correct changes by running the triggers on a list of markets, as described in the video lesson on testing staking plans.
However, if your trigger is much more complicated or involves cooperating with other triggers, then you must first open the file where it is stored. Do this by pressing the "Open" button again and loading the file. Don't worry about the staking plan trigger, you'll be able to load it later.
Once the file with the triggers you designed has opened, press the "Copy" button on the trigger you want to bet instead of the one in the example.

After that, re-open the file with the example, as described above. Be sure not to copy anything else into the clipboard while doing this, as the trigger will be copied there.
On the green trigger block panel, which is in the top of the file, find a button titled "Paste Trigger" and press it.

The trigger will be inserted in the block, on top of other triggers in the same block.

Now, it is important to understand that the order in which triggers appear in the block is crucial to the way the whole block works! They ought to be executed in exactly the same order as they appear in the staking plan example. That is why you must use Drag and Drop to move this trigger to the bottom of the block, just above the trigger that was originally placing bets in the example. If the height of the triggers window does not let you do this in one go, you can drag and drop it several times, until it moves down to the right position.
Having done that, disable the other trigger that used to place bets, for you don't want it any more. Disabling or deactivating a trigger means setting its "Execute" property to "never".

Don't forget to press "Save Triggers" button again.
Now you are ready for another round of testing. Feel free to make as many changes to the trigger file as you want, until you've refined your own staking plan.
