@martin-futter I've added spreadsheet for LTF to signature. Only 3 days of results right now but I'll keep updating and I'll keep it in signature.

Going to try and track some of the ideas for minor tweaks I've been having too but it's all manual and like @Alan-Steward said, very time consuming.

Martin

@richard-latimer can you tag me when you upload the sheet? would like to see that!

I see on Betfair that German Horse racing starts up again this afternoon. I doubt it is a country that will generate much liquidity but may do as it is on at peak time something to keep an eye on and it looks like the races are going in play

Yesterday it said they weren't going inplay and the one at 13:00 has just suspended so don't think reliable. Also only 20k matched.

That's strange when you look on the Betfair website it has a tick for going inplay. But like you say no money in the markets the 13.30pm only has just over a £1k not worth it

Anyone considering the 21:45? I know its only 8 runners but has 5 with odds less than 10.0

Hi Mate not sure i don't think it would. But saying that there is no favourite and now 5 at 10.0 or below

Yeah mate I'm seeing a couple of prices flickering below 4.0, initially when I posted that it looked alright bar only 8 runners but as we know, things can change fast lol

Did it work? I had stuff to do.

Odds fell nearer the start so I left it and just watched it on the in play trader and it looked like 3 would have matched at 1.81

Tracking the 2.02 and the 2.04 price on LTF. First 3 days is clearly a win for the 2.04. We'll see how it goes from now.

I'll put the spreadsheet up tomorrow.

Okay 22:15 didn't qualify in the end and only 2 matched in simulation mode... Won't be trading the other meeting so I'll see you all later

? Offline

I see there's horse racing in Germany tomorrow... Be interesting to see what the liquidity/quality is like... Need to get my new bot sorted asap... Can't keep watching all these races lol

Cool, is it a Poisson file mate? That's what I'm trying to get hold of, I've seen one online where you copy the data after each set of fixtures and it updates the Poisson for you so you don't have to manually type it in each time

Sorry mate, I've no idea what a Poisson file is lol

@dan-erridge Yeah £25 for a fairly simple file, more for more complex... Could have written what he did now but not then
