Lay 3rd fav doing well for everyone else this month?

Ive officially abandoned my Lay 3rd fav strategy today. Since you asked this question(27th Aug) Its pretty much not moved. Its shot up to a 30 point gain, nearly hit 40 points then has hovered between 30 and 40 for 3 months. Frankly, I get pissed off when it has a bad day and eats into my L2B profit! So, its done. Slowly find myself heading away from automation and looking to be more in control of my horse racing...

Not to mention I had a mare(no pun intended!) and accidently deleted my original one...along with some others🤣

Horse racing is so frustrating some times. My biggest paydays are still scalping and lay to backs.Neither of which are automated

@Martin said in Question about horse section!:

@Patrik-Mellqvist the horse racing has backtesting yes if that's what you are asking

@Martin

Thanks.
Exactly.

Can I test for one month to validate and explore?
Can I use a month subscription?

If I get what I am looking for after the testing period.
Then can I get the same 3-year deal as with a soccer subscription?

Cheers Patrik

Hi Adam. I was trying to create a back strategy looking for horses that ran below their handicap last time/handicap has been lowered focusing on higher quality handicap races with decent prize money (theory being you know the horses will be trying). My thinking is that a lot of money in these higher quality races will be placed on the favourite/tipped horses by pundits leaving some of the "outsiders" to provide value. Obviously this approach won't be for everyone as there will be long losing runs but wondered if you had any comments on my first stab? Is there any way of testing how it would have performed if the selections had been backed each way? Thanks!

Sorry for clickbaity title, it's accurate though!

I know a lot of people have their strategies set up in the software to bet within the last 10 minutes before the race. Are you aware of just how much the prices move around during that time? Especially these days with Betfair liquidity massively down on what it was even 5 years ago.

What I find now is that even on a solid handicap race, the prices will range much more, somewhere around 2 or 3 ticks either side of the average traded price. So you could do 6 ticks better on the same selection simply by better timing your entry bet! What difference would that make to your results?

I'm planning on introducing some "value maximisation" settings into the Betting Rules in the software. Ideas so far:

Entering a trade at the top or bottom of the selection's recent traded range Predicting the stopping or reversal of a trend (kind of the same as 1 tbh, probably based on MACD or price envelopes) Restricting bets based on the back/lay ratio (gap between the top back and lay prices) "Big bet" detection (Outsized bets coming into the market cause big moves) Betting based on proximity to natural or dynamic support and resistance points (natural resistance points basically being the tick crossover points on the ladder, e.g. 3.0, where the increment changes from 0.02 to 0.05) Liquidity related measures like fill rate, amount of money available at a price Backtesting profit figures with thresholds built in, for example telling you what your profit would have been if you'd taken 1 tick better or worse prices

Some of these are going to be quite intensive to calculate on the fly so this probably isn't a quick thing, and I have no idea if you could replicate them in BFBM (I think BetAngel's automations could handle them), but I'll leave that to them!

Those of you who do manual trading and think about this stuff, and also use the software, do you have any other suggestions or requests?

Here are the stats highlights from our software today!

Horse Racing - User Guide Here: https://new.betfairtradingcommunity.com/horse-racing-stats/

Terms Glossary:

LTO = Last Time Out

Dobbed = Price reduces 50% In Running, a £10 bet at the off would make £10 profit if price reached, £10 loss if price not reached.

Trobbed = Price reduces 66.67% in running, a £10 bet at the off would make £20 profit if price reached, £10 loss if price not reached.

Beaten Fav = Horse that was a favourite last time out and lost.

Steamed = Horse's price has shortened significantly

Drifted = Horse’s price has got bigger significantly

Class = Similar to divisions in football, so going up in class in theory is stronger competition, down in class weaker horses etc

@Adam said in Question About BSP Place Markets:

@Michael-Chalk We get the place prices in a file from Betfair and the event name is still listed as "To Be Placed". BF don't seem to offer this market as a single entity any more on the website.

I think the price is taken from the TBP market with the same number of places as the Each Way market.

Nice and simple 🙄

We only have the full price history for the win market currently but will be adding other markets in future.

It's possible to add the place BSP as a column in the trades results, but it's not currently possible to filter on the place / each way odds.

@James-Mitchell said in DOB% Quesiton - 13/05 (1.47 Catterick):

Is there a benchmark figure or is literally any amount matched at the lowest point in play for said runner?

It's the lowest price with at least £1 matched. We're looking at ways of providing some liquidity settings so you can change the minimum amount matched for things like this 👍

    @Paul-Hill don't think we could even investigate that, as there is no strategy to work from. perhaps something in the betting rules was slightly different, impossible to know if it wasn't saved unfortunately.

    if you are 100% sure create it again and see if the results align with the saved one, save both and let us know the names if there is an issue and we could investigate.

    @Paul-Hill The outsider is the horse with the highest price.

    2nd outsider is the horse with the 2nd highest price, etc. Basically the opposite of the favourites.

    The outsider setting works in conjunction with the other betting rules, so for example if you set your entry time as 10 mins before the race, it's basically going to give you whichever horse had the highest price at 10 mins before the race.

    @Patrick-Murphy Having looked at some of these, it looks like they're due to gaps in the prices. So basically short amounts of time where we weren't able to capture price snapshots, so your exits have either been missed completely or recorded later than they should have been.

    These gaps can be due to latency or brief outages of the Betfair API and occasionally due to some issue our end, like the server issue I posted about recently here.

    We regularly plug these gaps where we can using the Betfair historical data, and we've recently improved our audit scripts to better identify when they happen, so have been going through the whole database again to apply this improved method. It's a fairly big task but should be finished by the end of next week.

    Sometimes when the issue is at Betfair's end, the data doesn't even appear in their historical data, which means we won't be able to plug the gaps at all. This will represent a fraction of a percent of trades, but I can understand that if you're backing at very high odds and large stakes, it could skew the profit figure.

    Maybe we need a way of marking these in the database. We could also add some kind of "report and exclude" button to each individual trade in the results table, so that if you spot any of these yourselves, you can submit them for review and make them not appear in your backtesting results.

    I'll finish the DB audit and then see what we can do to deal with any issues that still remain.

    Betting bank calculator

    @Martin I'm really looking for a standard approach to calculating my stakes as a percentage of bank across various strategies (rather than based on a specific strategy). Generally I'm backing but some lay strats.
    So for example, one strategy might have a 4% strike rate, odds range 20-100, average odds 38, longest losing run 133 and an ROI of 24%. I know I'll need to ride out long losing periods and my gut feel is I'd want at least a 200 point bank, probably more. If I plug the above into a basic Kelly calculator it gives me 1.41% as the 'Fraction of bankroll to wager' which equals a 70 point bank. That's way too low in my view.
    2nd scenario - 24% strike rate, average odds 8, longest losing run 22 and an ROI of 37%. The basic Kelly calculator gives 13.14% as my stake %age (!) but my feel is this would work with a 100 point bank.
    I've seen Kelly calculators with options to add multiples for a more cautious bank size (BFBM has a 'Divisor') and maybe I just need to use that but adjust the Divisor based on the average odds?
    I've always used a level stakes approach and that's probably why I'm struggling with the percentage of bank that Kelly calculates. I also need to adjust to the percent of bank betting approach rather level stakes
    Anyway, any thoughts from others with more experience using a percentage approach will be very welcome
    Cheers

    That's massive bad luck, for two horses at single figure odds to be withdrawn after the off time and then such a big priced outsider going on to win before a retrospective rule four is enforced. Going to be a very rare occurrence, but can be pretty painful when it does happen.

    That's why I tend to do this type of trade with National Hunt races only because there's no messing about with stalls and you can see exactly how everyone is lining up.

    @Danny-Newby It will be horses that are expected to be held up. If they don't yet have enough history to satisfy the pace calculation, their rating will be null and the horse won't appear in the results.

    Yea I would be more of the thinking that if certain rules should not be selected at the same time it should just auto unselect them (maybe with a brief flashing animation of the unselected option, to alert user to what just happened)

    Then it will be obvious that those two are incompatible (You could do this with the Max Qualifiers and Fav settings as well, same logic as we previously discussed, isn't it)

    Cheers

    Has anyone else found that quite a few strategies seem to have almost flipped round when you compare 2022 with 2023 (nearly a full year of results). Guess the challenge is to crack that and find something that is consistent over the two years of data (I'm ignoring 2021 for now due to covid disruption). Any thoughts?

    @Julian-Drake-Clarke If that's the case then we need to do some work on mobile optimisation!

    Can you let me know the make, model and OS of your tablet and I'll get this fixed ASAP. We want the software to be usable on all devices.

    @Nigel We did a big audit of the database and in fixing one set of data, I think we zero'd a bunch of values temporarily and it threw off some strategy results.

    Glad it's all back to normal now 👍

    @Brigitta-Nagy the thread is for discussion about BFBM so if you ask there one of the experts on it will help, I am far from an expert on it myself!

    @Myles-O-Bery would it be to do with how the commision is set or anything? maybe check all the settings in BFBM align with your account?
