@keith-dow liquidity is a mess isn't it but if we can make a profit on this liquidity it should be much better on UK

[A Former User]

Well that's a weird one but I am not complaining. The winner in the 10.10 didn't get matched for me but the other 2 did. Big profit!

[Martin]

@alan-steward got 3 matched, it went to 1.91 the third one but there was not much money top eat up, which i think is why results will be even better on the UK stuff with people hoovering up our lays quicker

[A Former User]

@martin-futter How many did you get matched on... Am thinking of laying odds at 1.98 for 0.5pts... 2 matched for scratch or 1 for 0.5pts loss

@alan-steward 3 below evens there

Yes mate... 3 below evens on Back... Not Lay???

[Martin]

@alan-steward I'm testing at 2.04 as that's probably the highest I would lay at

2 matched in Simulation mode on Fairbot

[Ryan]

@alan-steward Hmmm I think so, been a while since I used fairbot for horse racing and used these features should be 'Keep'

Fairbot is a beast!

[A Former User]

@martin-dodd Yeah was looking at BF Botmanager but thought there were more or better instructional videos for Betangel... That said I really feel Fairbot will do everything I need it to could do with knowing if you can set "Keep" when setting up these "Lay All" bets @Ryan-Carruthers ?

@martin-dodd What bot are you using? I currently have Fairbot & Betangel

I'm running this on BF Botmanager.
I do also have BetAngel but I find automation easier on BFBM. I got BetAngel to start learning to scalp as that seems a better interface for that...but the current situation has rather limited my opportunity to practice.

@martin-dodd like this, the right way to go not discounting any data yet

I bet you could!

[A Former User]

I was wondering if we could use Betfair's SP data to quickly build up a historic data set.
https://promo.betfair.com/betfairsp/prices

We could get race type, number of runners, BSP values and in-play min values

I'm working today so can't look at it until this evening at the earliest but might be useful?

[A Former User]

So my bot ran overnight. I accidentally ran it with the wrong settings (i'd been tinkering before bed!)...basically it triggered on any race within 1200-1850m and with 9+ runners.
Luckily i ended in profit! (real money 10p bets)

Summary table below if it's of interest.

Had I tightened it up to only select races with Fav BSP > 4 then the results would have been better and since doing that this morning the results have improved...with 2x4 matches, 1 x 3 matches, 2x2 matches and 2x1match

Currently, I'm not restricting on race type but will consider it after getting more data

PS. Start times are out by an hour for some reason

[Martin]

@alan-steward yep they are next for recording for me

[A Former User]

From what I can see the next 2 qualifiers are 10:10 at Cran & 10:35 at Pinj?

Will look more into Wagga
