@john-folan quite obvious when you put it like that

@dan-mackinnon said in BFbotmanager Automation Discussion:
@john-folan yeah I've done that, but it doesn't load from the URL one or the auto load.
To be honest, I'm using BFBM for Betdaq because I've got Fairbot for Betfair and wanted to compare the two. I wonder whether it doesn't work on that? Seems odd to have the feature but that might be it.
Luckily I can still select the trades I want so it's not a complete failure. There are still loads I need to explore so I'm sure I'll be back with more issues!
It would be that then. The selection ID's would be different.

@paul-foster @Nick-Riley Thanks both.
Yes, the horse win market is autoloaded and I checked the markets
I've added the URL in the Tips Auto Loading as well.
I can import tips from files just not URL.It's not a big deal as I'm still working my way around it so it might click at some point. I've set up 2 bots because I want to see how it compares vs Fairbot. 1 uses selections from tips (I'm using Lay the Beaten Fav so just have LTBF as my software External ID and BFBM provider) and the other uses selections from My S. which I've manually selected. I wanted to see how all 3 get on, although there's likely to only be 1 trade today but quite a few for tomorrow.
Is the reload from URL button every hour filled in?
Also did you get your URL from here? -
Does anyone else find the uploading tips via url from published google sheets a bit temperamental? Some days it works fine others it doesn’t seem to pick up the tips. Would someone be able to share an example of the columns they used for uploading?

Great thanks - I’ll update mine. Also, the second part is only placed if it’s still 0-0 isn’t it?
Yes that’s correct.
-
@dan-mackinnon Have you added the URL in the 'Tips Auto Loading', from with the 'Manage Tips' section of BFBM? You need it in there and set how often you want it to reload from the URL
-
@dan-mackinnon are you auto loading the horse win market??
-
Hi everyone, I'm trying out BFBM for a bit but I'm having trouble getting tips from the software. I can save them as CSV files and import them that way, but when I go via the URL it says 0 tips loaded.
I'm sure there's something obvious I'm missing. I've put the External ID in the software
And I have the same on BFBM
I then go to the horse racing software and get the daily qualifiers and take the URL link and copy and paste this into BFBM but it doesn't seem to work. Am I missing something?
Apologises, I know this has been asked before but I still can't quite get my head round it.
Thanks! -

-
@joseph-henderson Yes they do, this is how I've imported today's tip.
-
Thanks, I’ll check that. I actually think the error might have been due to the fact I was uploading tips via URL and I think only one bet can be placed on each tip according to the manual. So I think if uploading via tips then you may need to split out the two parts for this strategy so there is effectively two tips. I may be wrong though and will test.

@Joseph-Henderson It is ticked on mine and placed both back bets for me and hedged. Check the 'Match minute' in Market Conditions, when I downloaded it, it was set for only a 1-minute window so heaps of the 50min back bets were getting missed, so I extended it to place a bet between 50-55mins.

Hi John (or anyone who may know the answer to my query!). I have been trying the Ryan's Split Stake bot provided in this thread. I wanted to ask if under 'Selection conditions' whether the 'Bet type by runner position' needs to have the 'Only 1 bet is allowed per runner position' unticked? The bot I downloaded came with this option ticked.
For example I had the Almere City FC v Jong FC Utrecht game this evening that was 0-0 at 50mins yet the 2nd part of the bot placed no bet for me. I wondered if it was this box being ticked that was preventing a second bet being placed on Over 1.5 goals.
Thanks
-
@joseph-henderson the way i did it was to add a market in as a selection manually in BFBM, and then go to the manage tips panel and see what it has it listed as. Would be handy if BF provided a list in it's API docs but I couldn't find anything

@steven-white said in BFbotmanager Automation Discussion:
@daniel-mills Here are some more Selection id's
5851483 = Over 0.5
1221386 = Over 1.5
47973 = Over 2.5
1222345 = Over 3.5
1222346 = Over 4.5
1485568 = Over 5.5Would someone be able to tell me where Selection id's can be found? Was looking for Over 0.5 First Half Goals and Both Teams To Score. Thanks
-
Does anyone have a Bot that is set up for backing a second half goal when the odds hit a desired price, and then if a second half goal is Bot ignores the the match and moves on?

@greg-mitchell said in BFbotmanager Automation Discussion:
@john-folan I'm being thick, can't seem to find it, I can see the one for number of selections (runners in a race) but not another. When you get a mo, point us in the right direction please? No rush.
My bad it was actually under Staking. It is about 4 from the bottom of the list
