BFbotmanager Automation Discussion
-
Good evening,
Im new at BTC.
I have read and watched all the videos how to upload run the bots and strategies but i cant make it work.id did it manual and trhrough url and have all time this message
At autoload i put everything but still nothing.
But at BFBT is look like that one strategy work.
How is that possible? I connect the url and the systems
I have 95 more strategies at bfbt and they work ok.
Any opinion why is happened this?Thanks for your time
-
@Joseph-Henderson I use £1 assume that's the min but may be wrong
-
Anyone know what the min stake is when testing a strategy live? Can you go as low as £0.10 for example.
-
@mick-mcmahon have you watched this?
-
Via the url like that.
Or a CSV file like https://forum.betfairtradingcommunity.com/post/113356

Hi! I'm probably being dense and jumped over something basic with eagerness, but...
I've decided to have a dabble BF Bot Manager. So this morning, grabbed the daily horse racing email, made a Pace Lays strategy. Found the correct markets and added them to my markets view.But for the life of me I can't figure out how to apply that strategy to the horse/race selection?

@Nick-Mulvey Nick that's great, thanks for letting me know.
Is there anything that you wish someone had told you before you started with automation? How long have you need using it and what are the biggest pros and cons for you?
Cheers,

@Alex-Rule Hi Alex,
- Yes you can export all bet results and they have the strategy name with them.
- It records the profit & loss of each bet so can have a breakdown.
- Not completely sure how much data you can export from sim mode. It is always off as takes a different price to what you will actually get real world.
- Yes, I personally have a csv sheet that it automatically imports from and just update that each day without the need to do anything inside BFBM itself, it does it for me so takes about 2 mins to export from here and place in my sheet with the relevant IDs

@Ryan it's more the admin of cutting and pasting each game into Betfair, loading the market, placing the bet/trade, checking/hoping to see if your price got matched, then filling in the results afterwards.
I'm keen to understand if the bulk of the admin can be automated along with the actual trading!
I'm only going to add more successful strategies I hope so want to get my head around it now. Then can start compounding success.

hi guys
I recently made the move from fairbot so just getting used to the bfbm now. loving how u can load the tips directly across. watch martins video on how to import with url etc, one thing wanted to check do i have too copy and paste the url everyday or is it just first time and if make any changes. -
@Alex-Rule It's exciting this!!
I am with you it's the way forward. 2 hours is a lot time to spend looking.

I have had an epiphany over the weekend. And I want to go all in BF Bot manager for trading. I'm scared, nervous and excited all at the same time. Long term though I know it's the way forward. 2 hours on a Sat morn to get my bets on is just time not well spent!
Couple of questions before I take the plunge. Would be grateful for advice.
- Does BF Bot manger allow you export your trading records by strategy?
- Does BFBM record your profit and loss and breakdown the success of the strategy over time?
- Can you export testing mode reports?
- Is it really just as easy uploading the CSV file for your selections each morning?
Any other advice for a complete newbie please let me know!
Very exiting times!

@Joe-Beeston That should do the trick.
-
@Greg-Mitchell perfect, thank you.
I knew there would be something I missed. Just updated it to show this.
-
@Joe-Beeston On the Staking rules, you have got it set to bet only on "Irish Dobs 1.0", whereas your tips are coming through as "IrishDobs"
-
@Joe-Beeston I had the same issue when I tried that strategy all the others seemed to work apart from that one.
