Hey guys
Having trouble importing my football selections into BFBM, is there a video guide or some info in the feed I may have missed which can help me out.
Importing the horses was easy with the guide of the video that Martin created, was hoping there is something similar.
Cheers -
@Mark-Girling are you wanting to bet on any matches indiscriminately, ie any matches that fit the odds range flowing through BFBM, or will you be filtering by certain leagues or certain teams?
I prefer to do all my filtering and odds range in the BTC software, export the selections to google sheets and then upload them as tips.
That way I have a bit more control over the selections.

@Mark-Girling
Bet if specific market selection is within set price.
This looks to me to be what you want to use to check the home teams odds.
So a straightforward 02.5 within the odds plus that.
That's my guess.
-
Hi, I'm trying to bet on,
Over 2.5 Goals of odds between 1.7 - 1.9
when the home teams odds are below 1.67
i'm using Fairbot atm but want to convert a few Strategies,
Please help

@Jono Yeah.
I do it via power query. Don't even look at selections.
1 folder for the BM export. Download to that folder.
1 folder for BTC export, dito.
Open PQspreadsheet, click refresh, save it, upload it, voila.
Saves ages as you say.

Thank you! That's awesome, I've been having real issues getting my selections to match up. The differences in team names etc has been a challenge, now that I can download the markets I've found all I need to do is do a vlookup using the event ids from the markets to my selections from BTC, those that match get filtered to a new sheet that then automatically uploads back up. That will save me ages vs checking team name discrepancies etc.
Thanks for your help!

With markets loaded in BM, click export markets.
Note :- Some come through missing 000's off of them. However as i use power query to extract and merge with the BTC export, power query treats it as text instead of a number and therefore it doesn't matter to me.

Hi @alexander-hughes, Quick question, how do you get the market IDs from BFBM, can you download them all as a CSV? I've got my slections into a format that the tip inport function can access, but often it imports them but doesn't match them up to the right event, either due to slight differences in names, or I suspect, missing Match IDs. Any advice or guidance how to extract the data from BFBM so I can then match it all up using a query would be great. thanks.

@Gary-Calvert Great spot, thank you, all my days were unticked after the update....
-
@Greg-Mitchell
Check the "time to bet" on market conditionsmake sure that all the day tick boxes are checked
dont know why but some of mine were now unchecked and stopped placing bets,
only on football, updated BFBM a few days ago so might be a glitch. -
@Greg-Mitchell I've 12 bets running on footie ATM that were imported via CSV.
-
@Greg-Mitchell mine is up and running. But I have to restart it once per day (some rule in Sweden to be logged in max 23h / day)
-
Anybody else’s BFBM not putting bets on. It’s just suddenly stopped doing any football bets based on my imported “tips”?
-
@Benny-Grahn It means we don't currently have the Betfair prices for those matches, so we can't extract the event and selection IDs. Often this is because the market isn't live on Betfair yet, or it is but there's been no money traded on it yet.
-
I sometimes get 0 in BF Event ID / Home Selection ID / Away Selection ID
any idea about this @Adam
Is it that the data not updated fully for the todays games?
-
@Benny-Grahn I get it from BFBM and use power query in excel to merge and manipulate the data to a suitable CSV output.
Takes a little effort to start then just put the BTC export in a folder, the export BFBM markets in another folder. Open the power query spreadsheet hit refresh data then save as CSV and upload to BFBM. Takes under a minute
-
@alexander-hughes I think it is the EventID for Over/Under. MarketID not able to get from BTC I think
-
@Benny-Grahn SelectionId although for over/under i'm not sure if it's event and/or marketId in addition. I suspect the latter.
-
@alexander-hughes ah great, is it the matchID that is mandatory?
-
@Benny-Grahn They're on Betfair so it's either a miscommunication or a lag.
For most markets BFBM doesn't need the event id anyway.
