@angus-macleod Are you referring to the "manual betting tab" etc on Bet Angel?
-
@alan-steward It basically shows you the odds movement of the horses, both in play and pre play. Essentially the traded range of each horse, the last traded price and back and lay prices too. It doesn't necessarily coincide with where the horses are actually in the field but you do get to see the odds jumping around in play. I use it mainly just to see how many runners actually hit my price point.
I'm not the best at explaining things mate so I hope that makes sense
@james-everard Ah right I see, yeah that explains it, cheers for that mate
-
Just reached 50k but will leave it in simulation mode for now... Surprised my bot didn't kick in earlier
Favs price coming in quite a bit now so I guess in theory this race doesn't qualify
-
@angus-macleod Out of interest what is the Play Trader?
-
@angus-macleod Think that Langchamp is one the main courses in France hence the liquidity. Could be like Ascot compared to Market Reason
-
@alan-steward I've got the in play trader loaded as we speak, curious to see how it turns out, doesn't seem to be anywhere near the liquidity at Longchamp earlier
-
@angus-macleod put it on simulation mate but don't think odds will move quick enough... Will watch them in-play
-
@alan-steward Yeah mate I've just this second went to "Cancel All" on Bet Angel, not risking it. The last races I traded were all very close to £50k at this point.
-
@angus-macleod Hi mate, sure... Am sticking with 100k matched pre off as I feel this should help in play trading better

Anyone been on the French races? I got 2 matched in the 12:50 and 14:00 and 3 matched in the 13:25 all at Longchamp
Hi mate, set my bot up but have stipulated minimum 100k to be matched pre race... Nothing kicked in so can only assume matched volume was low... Did you note what the pre off volume was?
The last two didn't hit over £50k til about a minute or two after the scheduled start time and also I'm pretty sure they only had 2-3 runners that were between 4.0 and 10.0 so not the exact criteria but I decided to trade it as the distance was in spec and it looked wide open with no real stand out favourites that I could see so I figured it was worth a shot on small stakes.
Going to try the 17:40 at Angers to see how that pans out, unless of course something shortens then I'll be out like a rocket!

Morning all. I see sky sports racing is having live racing today from Longhamps and Angers in France today which are both available to trade on Betfair. Not sure of the later but the former looks like it is of a decent standard not huge amounts traded but decent enough the last race just had over 160k matched
Any idea where front runners can be found for these?
Sorry I don't mate, I think it was Keith or Daniel recommended a site a couple of weeks ago for the Usa races which is https://www.betamerica.com
This I think is helpful for Usa races where you can find info for French I am not sure mateYeah I looked at that site. Can't find anything for French racing.

@richard-latimer Strangely my bot kicked in with Fav SP @ 3.8... Again within that second it must have had a slow start and went over 3.9 as my minimum is greater than 3.9

4 matched in the 21:00 @ Tampa
Wow, did that fit all the criteria? I'm taking a backseat for now but still watching everything with keen interest.
How is your sheet looking now? Whenever I load it up I only seem to get races until 02/05.

2 matched in the 21:30 @ Tampa
