    Do you need to buy another licence for bfbm if you want to move over to a VPS ?

    Ok so I've decided to take the plunge. Ordered a week's trial of BFBM. I'm on a Chromebook so no Windows desktop. I've bought a VPS for a month and gone with Time4VPS. The problem is I have no idea what to do now. I obviously need to load BFBM into the VPS but can't seem to work out how to do this on a Chromebook.

    Any thoughts welcome

    Thanks

    @john-folan yeah that what i thought john and have tried it but its not worked. To be honest im leaning more towards buying Guardian, its £30 more a year but you just don't have the issues you have with BFBM, the customer support with BFBM is so good though so its a shame

    Strange. Still if it's not for you, go with what you are happy with.

    @nick-allan Interesting. I only do mine, I don't load in the selections though. The bot does the filtering to match the software. If you want to differentiate by loading them in then you need to put the tipsters rule under staking and call one Martin's and one John's(for example) Then import from the software and that will sort it. Each strategy will then only fire on the selections you import with the corresponding tipster/provider name.

    @john-folan problem is john it doesnt work, for example you and martin have a short odds lays strat, if you run them together and allocate the horses you want to target they keep firing in each others markets. So if martin has horse a in kempton at 1:30 and your short odds strat has horse b it doesn't distinguish between them and fires in both causing issues

    Hey guys had a quick question. I'm trying to load up a bot for a back the favourite strategy I'm not sure how to set this up on BF BM anyone have an idea of how you set up a bot that fires on the favourite in the market say 10 seconds before a race starts? I know there has been some discussion on the forum in regards to this but I can't find where it is.

    @nick-allan two separate bots and use tipsters. Relatively easy to set up.

    So I want to trade two separate strategies in one market at the same time and with BFBM you can't but you can do it with Bet Angel, is there any work around with this or do you have to have BFBM open on two separate computers? I've heard that there is something on the market that can replicate your desktop and load up two versions of BFBM at the same time that eradicates this problem has anyone else done this? And what was the name of the product?

    @john-folan the only issue ive found is that i tried running 2 shorts odds in HR your john and martin short odd, and they would end up firing in each others markets, so say martin has one in 1715 chelms but john doesnt and they both fire and vice versa, again its the limitationswith bloody BFBM not being able to allocate a horse to a strategy like you can
    do with BA guardian

    @darryll this would work. You just need the market loaded. You can run multiple strategies using tipsters.

    @john-folan said in BFbotmanager Automation Discussion:

    NOTE: Make sure if you have more than one over 1.5 strategy running that it is set up on a separate instance of BFbot. If you don't have another machine set it up in a Sanboxie virtual machine. I had 8 of these running on one PC once so easy to do.

    I'm wondering if adapting the strategy to function by placing the selections under a tipster would be a way of getting Ryan's Split Stake strategy to function under one instance of BFBM without interfering with any other O/U 1.5 goal strategies? I have done VM's in the past, but something usually goes wrong.

    I haven't set up any tipsters in BFBM yet, but I have watched the video tutorial and it seems like it could work. Does anybody know any reason why it wouldn't work?

    @john-folan Hey John, here's a copy of the strategies page with the five strategies im currently testing with minimal stakes. I can expand on any of the strategies and take a screenshot if you wish, but essentially your strategies I extracted directly from this page saving the link and then importing the strategy into BFBM, exactly the same way as I did with the football strategies. Yeah my bot triggered three times yesterday, two winners and a loss so it appeared to work so I'm just going to keep monitoring it when I can.

    @nick-allan ok for the short odds lays you just need to load the markets and turn the bot on. There’s no point importing the selections for those as the bot does all the filtering for you and fires if a lay hits the filter. Can you show me the bot page?

    For mine you only need to import flat pace and slow horses.

    @john-folan Thanks John, I've taken aboard your suggestions and selected the course and time on the events/market section of BFBM and that appears to work if you Scroll down all of the selections in tips form, however the bots are still not firing? and I can't figure out why?
