@Jonathan-Jones Are you sure you don't have a duplicate strategy on BTC with the same "LBF" external ID?

@John-Folan
Its the same issue as i had on just lay. I thought that was down to sim mode as everything was fine the day after but according to Adam its taking bets on horses that are not even selections and its a totally different strategy. I use the selection import via the tipster servide and i do provide min and max odds as part of that. I had left in the original selection criteria but i have removed it today so its only using the tipster service.

Something very not right. Sounds similar to the issues i had before with just lay though as BFBM was totally making up prices i thought that was down to sim mode. This is real mode and its taking bets not even in the selections by the looks of things (and totally ignoring others that are). I am improving my logging to see whats going on but on checking those horses were not in the selections for that strategy.
Will see what happens tomorrow.
This is weird. I get a 99% match between bfbm and the software results. Can you put up the bot and the software file please? I’ll look tomorrow or Tuesday at the latest.

@John-Folan for sure! That's the intention, football is so easy now it's mainly set and forget, can't wait to have horses set up the same.

@John-Folan I can do the footy stuff manually I'm after it for horses, seems like BFBM is the best from what the survey results suggest
It is indeed. However you will succumb to the footy stuff, especially when Adam integrates the footy software!

@Martin Test, Test, Test..
that's great advice thanks!

@Martin said in The BTC Horse Racing Thread:
Going to dive more into Automation over the coming weeks, anyone got any advice to help me?
Read the manual and watch the youtube videos. Are you going for BFBM? I think as you mostly trade football it's your best option.

@Adam - what time (roughly) does the software get updated with the "Morning Price" please?

@Adam
Do we have missing data?My version of Lay beaten Favourite (v1 on my strats bunker) recorded only one race for yesterday and only 2 bets taken all day. In reality i have dozens over several races. Its not just that strategy thats different though, absolutely nothing matches up yesterday. Some are close but this one is mental (and its not one i have had issues with before). This is what it actually took...
The following courses are excluded in your strategy:
- Newmarket
- Downpatrick
- Leopardstown
- Newbury
That basically just leaves Carlisle. I checked the first 3 Carlisle bets on the sheet (Kehlani, Iolani, Whatacracker) and none of them were favourites last time out so wouldn't have been qualifiers in the software.
Something's not right at the BFBM end I think if those bets were all made on the lay beaten fave strategy.

@Karl-Pick did you speak to the guy who runs it? he's really helpful!
No I will message him, never thought just binned it, as it just annoyed me so much!
Thank you. -

This is a recent change to BFBM so entirely possible something is screwed up but i havent seen anything like this since i started on live stakes and the odds look in the range.

@Martin said in The BTC Horse Racing Thread:
@Karl-Pick interesting what was it in particular you struggled with?
the whole thing it transferred the data and had the headings on the initial page of each strategy, first day placed 1 bet, should have been 8, then placed no bets again! Gave up after 3 weeks of loading reloading, following everyones instruction and advise. It still placed Zero further bets!
