Set & Forget Football Strategies
-
@Andy-Donnelly interesting. I though over 3.5 and under 1.5 goals had minimum number of games for current season filter which was why they have no selections at present
-
@Paul-Donnelly If you are worried about lack of selections in a filter, suggest you make a clone of your chosen strategy and remove the following if they are in the filter settings:
-
odds - odds sometimes won’t be available on betfair until much closer to match time
-
shot stats - as mentioned by Adam recently there are some leagues where this info isn’t available currently so will mean selections don’t show
I’ve noticed recently that all my strategies that use shot stats have had very few selections recently. Particularly impacting the Brazilian leagues.

@Paul-Donnelly it's deep in development hopefully get a beta ready fairly soon, no dates set yet though

@Paul-Donnelly what I like to do on the software as well is type the date in the bar where it says 'Fixture search' as that will show you all the games there are today, it's good to just double check that then you know what leagues actually have games today and can explain sometimes when theres no games meeting the criteria on my filters.
Hi Ryan, interesting thought. I took your advice and there are quite a lot of games tomorrow. But still no upcoming matches on the strategy. Should there be an Apply button, or Run button somewhere? I just cannot figure how to pick a strategy and make it "go"

@Paul-Donnelly have a crack at creating your own one you should get some pop up then tomorrow
Will deffo be looking at trying some of my own in the future but for now wanted to toy with the presets, especially the ones that have the historical data. I guess back testing will remove an element of risk - is that due soon?

@Martin ah fair enough. It was just because I went through over 10 strategies and with zero qualifiers I wasn't sure if I had done something wrong.
I can see a lot of them say current season and 10 games etc, so I realise there won't be many European matches for a month or two.
Will keep an eye and get back to you if I have a few more days of zero results.

@Paul-Donnelly not much league football on this midweek most of it was cup think there was 5 Brazilian serie B games. So assumedly just nothing qualified. If there is nothing in by Friday lunchtime let me know.
-
Hey Martin.
I've just started to look at the various football strategies and been into the Football Stats section. I cycle through all of the presets and get 0 results. I cannot fathom why as there are plenty of leagues in mid season such as Brazil. I cannot see an "Apply" button so maybe that is missing for me?
How do I get to see the qualifiers please?
PS I am happy to provide a Loom video to show what I am seeing ...
Many thanks,
Paul -
HI all, does anyone have the original lay the away side at ko filter please? I added the new version but deleted the old one.
I have calculated that last month i lost 16 points and was wanting to track this system by reversing the strategy to backing the away side -
@dave-tancock problem is didn't trade that last year so hard to know
-
@Martin ok. Just a thought first time trading in July so unsure if this was normal. Especially with that bad weekend for lay away strategy the other week.
-
@dave-tancock depends how many games they have left, just checked and July was good for me last year so possibly just bad variance
-
Is it worth leaving the summer leagues now until the winter leagues start ie premier league etc?
-
@David-Walsh I've given Adam the money to buy a couple of years data and it will carry over moving forward so it will increase every month like on the horses.
-
@Martin Cheers Martin. Have you any idea far back it's going ie: 1 year, nearer 5 or nearer 10 ?
-
@David-Walsh yeah I don't see why not!
I think Adam said today no estimate yet
-
Martin or Adam !
I'm thinking from some earlier comments that when we get the backtesting software. We'll be able to back test the exact strategies that we've already been forward testing for the last year. Such as Tomaz'z etc.
Is that right ? If so how many years back will it go please ?
Also without pestering, is it imminent ?
(sorry in advance for asking that one)
