Betfairs up the spout
Apparently saturday afternoons are bad for this. I tried trading a couple of saturdays in the past and if there wasn't some kind of outage/interruption, my trades would just be total shite. Since then I just stayed away from weekend trading

Had to switch to Betdaq. -

Good to hear such encouraging stuff about the various strategies, long may it continue! Lets all just remember to form an orderly queue when it comes time to buy private islands, yeah? We're not savages remember

2/3 today. I’m reworking the short odds lays bot a bit. It will involve a slight bit of effort from people to exclude races but probably worth it. This is for BFBM which is deffo best for these sort of trades."@john-folan filtering out certain races?

No. Basically it will list the races for the day and you can then just exclude races that aren’t on the strategy list(chase for example)by clicking a selection in the race. I’m not changing the strategy at all.
I’ll explain it properly when I’ve tested it fully and post the bot file.

I only had two Short Lays and 1 LBF. Another couple of good wins on the backing strategies, they have been going very nicely! Nearly 50% bank increase for C&D in about four weeks!
It’s good to see all the strategies performing as should(even the bad spells). Waiting for the pace backs to kick off now and we will be all good.

3/4 today. Nice
Yes Very Very Nice, for some reason I got 6/6 ?
Circus Act, Pretending, Allies Damour, Win Win Power, Alpha Zulu and Rossmore Nation.God knows. We all seem to be getting slightly different results. BUT it’s the principle that’s the thing so it will work out in the end. I’m still not doing them on Saturdays though. Beaten Favourites today only.

@nick-allan
I thought betangel could load selections from a spreadsheet. I dont have BA but have seen a few of his videos. It seemed a bit pricy for me given the alternatives but i am sure i remember thinking about going that way because of its integration facilities. -

@greg-mitchell thank you for all your help
-
@greg-mitchell got you, right ill make that change now and take out DSLR it mean less profit but it hopefully it will start to match the software results which is the goal, over 6 months its 10 pts difference and i can accept that
-
@nick-allan Yes exactly
-
@greg-mitchell oh sholuld the odds range be less than 1.79 and more than 2.41? so 1.8 and 2,4 is included? and runners be less than 3 and more then 16? so the 4 and 15 runners are included? is that what you mean?
-
@greg-mitchell Oh and yes ive looked at a comparison from my current version and one without a DSLR filter and there is a slight different but not massive so I will take out that rule until I got back to BFBM in 5 months time
-
@greg-mitchell But the odds and runners are right, you can see that’s its set up to place a lay bet between 1.8 and 2.4 which it has been doing? Here the screenshots:
Same with the runners its 4-15 odds condition, is it not?
Have you got a bot that set up correctly and ill replace it?
