    @james-menhenitt yeah thts a bit more fiddly.

    Might be worth dropping a request in the BFBM forums, but I suspect you'll want two separate hedge or close position options set up and in one of them set up your market conditions to have 'football - match minute 11-21' and 'bet when score is 0-1 or 1-0'. Pic below is the settings panel you want to do this in.

    The second hedge condition can then be set up for your green up trade.

    Either way, best thing to do will be to set it up in sim mode and let it run for a couple of games to make sure it's running properly.

    @david-milligan John's trades between odds at 2-3. Can't remember off hand but might be in the horse strats megathread if it's not in the member presets. I only asked because I think the file I uploaded was called 'John's pace lays' but it was actually set up for Martin's.

    @daniel-mills Thanks Daniel; I'll take a look at the strategy. From memory it hedges on a goal, but I only want the hedge to happen if a goal is scored between minute 11 and 21 which is where I'm getting stuck.

    Hi again all. I've looked at the split stake and yes, it will hedge at any time. My problem is I only want the hedge to happen up to 21 minutes. If it's still 0-0, I want the bet to run.

    Any ideas gratefully received.

    @joseph-henderson Basically yes. There are a number of ways to do this automatically in a spreadsheet. This is one way: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1yYD75X-0qxhiNatJXbkyJKJLbIXRzfwV9xmFez91_tE/edit?usp=sharing

    The downfall is that changes sometimes take time to update as it uses the QUERY function in Google Sheets. There may be other ways of doing the same thing.

    When running multiple horse strategies and the same horse is selected under more than one strategy, do you just need to make a copy of row on the csv file and change the provider to desired strategy prior to importing?

    @daniel-mills is there much difference in the two strategies? I can't find John's one to compare them

    @joseph-henderson Sorry, meant pace lays but I think you understood which ones I meant.

    if the odds ranges are the same you're good ๐Ÿ‘

    @joseph-henderson Hi Joseph, are you doing John's Flat Pace Backs or Martin's?

    both have different selections / odds ranges

    Hi Daniel - I was doing Martin's. The odds ranges looked the same to me? Do I need to tweak the BFbot settings slighty? Thanks

    @james-menhenitt sounds like you want to set up a condition to hedge if the score changes. Think the strat for Ryans Split Stake has something similar set up that way

    @john-folan or anyone!

    Hi all. Very new to BFBM and despite looking around their site I'm struggling with a couple of basics... probably not looking in the right place.

    I've got here a basic bot that follows (a bit) Ryan's U3.5 goals strategy. It fires the lay in on 11 minutes. What I'm trying to get it to do is close out for a loss if there is a goal between the lay going in and 21 minutes. If it's still 0-0 after 21 minutes to let it run. Can't figure out how to do that! Any help would be gratefully received!!!

    Thanks muchly in advance!!!

    Here's my mega basic file!

    Hi there - I have tried to make a bot for the Pace Lay strategy and it doesn't seem to be working properly. Does anyone have a bot for this strategy that works that I could take a look at to compare? Thanks

    Might need some help, downloaded two strategies after joining yesterday.
    Back the Favourite and Lay the Favourite.
    The system then did Two Lay the favourite bets, One of which was not even on the qualifiers list. That was it.
    Today it has done nothing!
    Have I made some simple error or do I need to go through everything again?

    It might be set to not trade on a Saturday. I donโ€™t trade SOL on Saturdays and Iโ€™m pretty sure the bot file uploaded here reflects that.

    Read the first post on both threads.

    @leigh-grubb the BFBM software prevents you from importing the same tip twice so don't worry

    @david-milligan I've managed to get this far too with auto-loading the daily qualifiers. With auto-reloading does bfbm delete the previously imported selctioms at each refresh. Ie if the selection changes I don't want to end up with 2 bets on the same race by mistake if that makes sense. Appreciate any advice, I'm only a few days in to automated trading!
