Had everything set up overnight. Excited by the new toys of a VPS and Bet Angel. Woke this morning to see that nothing fired. Thought surely something would have met the criteria (I had LTF and the another lay strat I'm testing).
Logged into my server to find a load of BA pop ups.......forgot to turn off the bet confirmation....d'oh. Everyday is a school day.

Works a treat on BF Bet Manager if anyone is interested in setting that up (see my previous post on my settings at the moment).
Tested it last night on the Aussie racing with no minimum traded volume and it fired the bets in perfectly. Will activate it properly today requiring at least 50K liquidity before the off.
I'd love to give it a go on BFBM if you could help me with the settings please Charles! I had a quick go yesterday but i'm much better at football on BFBM than the horses unfortunately!
No problem at all.
I am attaching the program file to this message.
Had to convert it to a '.doc' file to get it uploaded. Just convert back to '.gz' file before you upload it into BF Bot Manager.
It is all set up to work. This one is set to fire at 1.51 but you can change that in the price settings. All of the usual fields are there to play with...mainly just adjusting the market filters and whatever you want to use for a stake.
Right now I am running 1.51, 1.76 and 1.99 experimentally until I have completed a few hundred trades to see where the sweet spot is. Pretty sure it won't be close to evens but not sure which of the other two might be better.
Let me know if you have any issues with set up.

yep. just tampa 8.15. i got 3 more on australian races, one had 3 runners matched. was a good day.
-
@claudiu-ion
8.15 tampa got 2 matched mate, running your bot
-
You should find it at C:\Users\User1\AppData\Roaming\Bet Angel\Bet Angel Professional\AutomationReports
Just change User1 with your username.
The report is not very good though. i don't know how to export more data. Still learning.

1_1587315092695_US - Lay The Field.baf
0_1587315092694_AUS - Lay The Field.baf
I have one for Australia and one for US markets.
Perfect. Cheers dude.
-
@claudiu-ion
Cheers mate appreciate that
-
The only difference between the 2 files are the conditions regarding the race distance.
For AUS I have the distance set in meters and for US is in furlongs. -
1_1587315092695_US - Lay The Field.baf
0_1587315092694_AUS - Lay The Field.baf
I have one for Australia and one for US markets.

@james-everard
Have got mine set to 1m 1f i think mate atm, thats the max distance, ive noticed in America mind 1m 1f is about as far as they go at say Tampa, so might have to drop to a mile maybe -
@dan-erridge Good start , stick to the rules and hopefully it will continue. I done one the other day not reading the distance properly so wouldn't have met the criteria and it lost!
-
1.81 so far mate, on testing, 5 winners one loser, 4 with 2 matched for small profit and 1 with 3 matched for good profit
-
@dan-erridge Hi Dan not got What's App to old lol. Thanks for the offer buddy but I know how to set up the automation it is just finding a successful system to make money. It is all about tested different formulas until you get the correct one for pre off racing. I know how to lay the field automatically just didn't realise when I done it before it had to leave the pc on otherwise they don't store lol. What odds are you going in at I have been ltf at 1.66
-
@claudiu-ion
Sounds good mate, whats your set up then?
Dan
-
I have made some automation for bet angel too. At the moment just for the LTF strategy. If you want I can share it with you guys and if you have any new things to add or to adjust, would be awseome.
-
@keith-dow I'm gonna trial run it on some at Tampa later to see if it fires correctly mate
-
@dan-erridge yeah the language and structure of the rule is pain. Iām not sure about it yet.
-
@keith-dow
Yes mate, I'm adjusting mine now, with a number of runners,volume, and distance conditions applied, trying to work out how you apply a min fav odds condition, I think you add a fixed odds condition then change it to row 1 sorted in order of favouritism the selections back price is greater then say 4,but not sure on that bit
-
There's is a basic LTF bot on the Bet Angel forum but it works fine.. Activates 1 sec after race goes in play. You just need to change the settings to the required odds and stake. Was going to add in a liquidity condition for the Aus races overnight.
