@Greg-Mitchell - thanks Greg, much appreciated
-
@simon-topper You need to set the Markets to auto load all Football markets that you might be interested in, So in this case you need to have every Match_Odds market already loaded otherwise the tips wont work.
-
@Greg-Mitchell So I have put those details in as I have been struggling as well. I get the following imported but it doesn't add them to the markets section.
This is for the lay away team strategy. Any Ideas?
-
@David-Polkey You need to have it structured like this:
Where:
Provider is the "Tipster"
Market Type will depend in which market you are using and has to be in Betfair format.
Event ID comes from Betfair, but will be downloaded with your BTC software selections or the Football Ratings
SelectioniD is the Betfair ID for the Market TypeCommon Selection ID's are:
If you need other Selection ID's, I find the best way to get them is to use the BFBM Markets tab, add a selection for whichever Market Type you are looking at and then move the selection to your Tips, Then export the Tips to csv. (There may be a simpler way, but thats how I do it)

Hi there
I'm new to the Betfair Trading Community and circumstances mean I can generally only trade via the BF Botmanager. I've followed this thread and have a number of horse racing strategies running and have succesfully exported selections following the guidance here. However, I'm struggling to export Football selections as I'm not sure how to structure the CSV file. Can anyone help?
Thanks

@Joseph-Henderson This should help, I pulled this together for football, but the principles are the same.
BFBM - Auto Load from Google Sheets.pdf
That said, you should be able to use the url auto load to select the same horse. Works fine for me.
-
Does anyone have a quick way of importing the tips via google sheets when you have multiple strategies selecting the same horse? At the moment I am manually entering new rows and copying the horse details. Not a big issue but just seeing if there are any possible time savings. Thanks
-
@simon-topper got caught out there myself a couple of times
-
Found it, it was set to 1 on original.
-
Got the 7 day trial for this, and got it set up to auto import the horse racing which is working a treat.
I am using the BTC Lay The Beaten Favourite 3-15 Odds bot, which I have slightly tweaked (Just odds and stake)
I noticed that it's only picking 1 selection per race even when there are multiple selections in the URL download.Am I missing a setting somewhere?
-
Can anybody enlighten me on this ROI Adjustment bit, I just don't get it, what is it trying to achieve and how does one adjust it, an example would be nice. Searched through the BFBM manual and forum, cant find anything that makes sense to me.
-
@David-Milligan ah nice, good idea! I thought I'd set it to midday every 24 hours!
-
@Paul-Keighley You are set up to load the tips at 00:12 and reload every 24 hours. I would set the "Reload from URL" to 00:01:00 to reload the tips every hour in case any tips come through during the day
-
@Paul-Keighley Looks pretty similar to mine!!
-
@David-Milligan
Ok thanks David, I'll see what happens! Do just these default settings look fine to you? -
@Paul-Keighley yea once you get it set up it works like a charm. I haven't had to manually import the HR selections in months.
-
@David-Milligan Thanks David. I've just turned on this option and put in the url. It's just I saw Andrew's post about it and he said it didn't appear to be working correctly for him, so I was just checking if he had sorted it yet and whether there were just a few settings I needed to chnage for example?
-
@Paul-Keighley If you are using Betfair Bot Manager you can get it to check a URL for tips every so often - it is in Auto Load Tips - page 86 on the manual

@Andrew-Gray Hi Andrew. Did you manage to get this working in the end? I've just been importing the same url each day manually, didn't realise there was this option to have it done automatically every day!
