Great post, this is something I always keep an eye on, brings home the benefits of longer term testing. If you rely on goals to win in your strategy and you know you're profitable when goals are at usual levels, then just hang in there, because once goals hit 3+ a game then you'll likely benefit hugely.

@Luke-Edward-Walker I sorted it this morning, let me know if you didn't get the email from me 🙂

@Ian-Thompson Always gentle with everybody here matey, this is a safe place.

When it comes to these I always played the day and not the trade, so what I mean by that is that I would research the games for that day and then weigh up the other opportunities against these if these games were in my view a better opportunity then I would stick with them, if not then I would take the losses as usually it was minimal.

So this is more of a theoretical framework for people to refine, or have you actually tested it in live trading? Filtering for comebacks makes sense in theory, but Betfair odds already factor in a lot of this. Have you checked if this actually finds value compared to market pricing?

Also, things like ranking bands and win percentages aren’t that reliable. Players perform completely differently across hard, clay, and grass, and those stats get skewed fast. Looking at the last 10 matches one player might have just come off a Grand Slam, while the other was playing in Challenger events, so it’s not always a fair comparison.

Have you refined and tested this yourself? How has it been doing?

@Wayne-Thomas said in Bet Angel Automation Thread:

@tony-hastie I think you're right about the clear cut favourite at 75mins. I don't see this automation working consistently at 60 minutes.

I have created one this afternoon that fired correctly on all the Championship games. The timings can be adjusted to suit your needs and don't forget to change the staking - it is set to £10 liability at the moment. Needs to be applied to the correct score market.

It relies on weight of money conditions so may go awry if the liquidity is low. Best used on more high profile leagues for the moment. I'm planning on testing some smaller leagues later today.

As always with automation, make sure to test with small stakes or better still in practice mode to make sure you're happy with how it performs. It has only had limited testing.

Let me know how it goes.

@Wayne-Thomas Im putting this bot back into production to lay HT score. Just wondering... if I only wanted to lay 0-0, 0-1, 1-0 or 1-1 would it be as simple as deleting all the other rules that arent those scores?

@Jonathan-McDaid that is a short price! Especially for a Grand Slam, this isn't prime Federer or Nadal is it. He is 2.48 to lay on Betfair so 2.2 is definitely a value lay price.

@Adam Thank you very much for that explanation, makes far more sense now. I've been trying to build strategies as best I can and naturally to be as accurate as possible, but need to get the basics, right from the very start. Thank you again.

@nick Do you mean the standard 2% commission? Yes they're definitely still charging that, this is specifically about the premium charge on top of that.

@Peter-Adams there aren't any SHG specific stats in the ratings, they tend to cover 90mins

@james-everard Well there have been 5 posts today already, so things are hotting up 🙂 but seriously it would be great to see what people are up to, not to copy them but to learn a few tricks of the trade (pun intended :))

@Patrik-Mellqvist nice one how is it going?

@Mark-Hewett always going to be a bit of deviation due to the nature of odds moving so quickly, what time do you enter?

That is great input and information.
See the free option works very well.

Cheers

@Akiva-Anderson I have thought about Lion's Mane before, Adam told me he used it and it worked.

Will have to get some, where you get yours? Seems to be so many out there tough to know whats a good one or not.

I get most of my stuff of that sort from mindnutrition.com or lifeessentials.co.uk.

@Mark-Hewett Welcome!

Thank you for the great welcome post, we've put a lot of time into building this up over the years so great to see somebody appreciate it.

Happy to help where I can as well.
