    @Greg-Mitchell Thanks for that - sounds like that's just what I am after.

    I'm testing a SHG strat at 60 mins with 0 goals, 1 goals and 2 goals.

    All of the games that are selected will be same selections based on prematch stats so the only difference within them will be which goal of the match the SHG we will be targeting.

    How have you found BFBM? I was planning on waiting for the football update so I could import selections directly. But I have a FHG and a SHG strat that I'm testing that look really promising - and I wonder am I just making excuses not to get stuck in?

    Is the formatting and rules setting easy for a simpleton like me?

    And can BFBM track results like strike rate, ROI and number give you a breakdown of selections to export if you wanted?

    Cheers,
    Alex

    @Alex-Rule Yes you can.

    In the Markets rules you can set a rule to allow betting on the next over/under market.

    I'm not sure if you need all the O/U markets loaded, but I do have them loaded up to O/U5.5

    I've attached my bot, which is for backing a SHG, might not be exactly what you are after, but you should get the jist of it.

    @Alex-Rule not sure myself but may be worth asking BFBot customer service if they could help?

    Hi Guys,

    Quick one for the football traders if I may.

    Can you build rules within your bot to only place a trade based on the current number of goals that have occurred? E.g place a bet on the over 0.5 goals market if it's 0-0 or 1.5 market if it's 1-0 ect?

    Would you do this within 1 bot and cover all the score lines or build separate ones to account for each?

    Look forward to hearing from you. Cheers, Alex

    @Mark-Girling games.JPG

    I loaded those in to BM.

    Then i selected all CS in BM for both game and exported to tips file.

    correct.JPG

    I then rearranged in descending order and it shows the selectionId is identical for both matches,

    What it doesn't show is which score is which SelectionId. However to find them out all you have to do is repeat the process but export 1 scoreline at a time and you'll have the answer(s).

    @Martin That’s interesting. Do you have any suggestions on min liquidity for the over 2.5 goals market? Want to try and add a rule to avoid what happened last night where a trade that should have won in fact made a loss due to odds movement!

    @Joseph-Henderson yes not only that they tend to stick at bad odds for a while so it becomes risky not to exit

    I have a strategy that hedges 90 seconds after a goal, but found yesterday that the odds on a particular game hadn’t really moved in enough before it hedged. I’m wondering if it was due to liquidity. Do markets with less liquidity move slower after a goal?

    @Mark-Girling on the opening post there’s “Gary’s SHG” bot.

    I used that as a template and built around it. The only downside is you have to select all the CS options which can be a bit time consuming. I’m sure there’s a more efficient way

    Anyone else's BFBM not importing horse racing selections? Missed loads the last couple of days

    I've just checked and my last trade was yesterday which lines up alright

    @John-Folan Pretty sure my Betfair and Betdaq are the same picks for the same strategies.

    @Simon-Cookson I think it's probably because you are in simulation mode, it's not that great especially for in running. I ended up just using £1 stakes live and then it seemed to be fine. I believe you can use really low stakes if it meets Betfairs payout requirements but I couldn't make any sense of that so just used £1 stakes.
