NOTE: Make sure if you have more than one over 1.5 strategy running that it is set up on a separate instance of BFbot. If you don't have another machine set it up in a Sanboxie virtual machine. I had 8 of these running on one PC once so easy to do.
I'm wondering if adapting the strategy to function by placing the selections under a tipster would be a way of getting Ryan's Split Stake strategy to function under one instance of BFBM without interfering with any other O/U 1.5 goal strategies? I have done VM's in the past, but something usually goes wrong.
I haven't set up any tipsters in BFBM yet, but I have watched the video tutorial and it seems like it could work. Does anybody know any reason why it wouldn't work?
-
@john-folan did you slow dobs fire as mine didn't?
-
@john-folan Hey John, here's a copy of the strategies page with the five strategies im currently testing with minimal stakes. I can expand on any of the strategies and take a screenshot if you wish, but essentially your strategies I extracted directly from this page saving the link and then importing the strategy into BFBM, exactly the same way as I did with the football strategies. Yeah my bot triggered three times yesterday, two winners and a loss so it appeared to work so I'm just going to keep monitoring it when I can.
-
@nick-allan yeah that one. Hopefully you have the short odds lay bot loaded in and turned on. I had four hits yesterday. 3 were winning trades and one wasn’t
-
@john-folan ah yes of course as it searches all selections so just need to qualifying the races on events/markets and turn on the bot, got you
what do you mean by the bot page? the strategies selections?
-
@nick-allan ok for the short odds lays you just need to load the markets and turn the bot on. There’s no point importing the selections for those as the bot does all the filtering for you and fires if a lay hits the filter. Can you show me the bot page?
For mine you only need to import flat pace and slow horses.
-
@john-folan @Paul-Foster i believe so, the market type is win? looks like one has fired, short odds lay so not all will qualify but been keeping an eye on it as one was 2.1 and didnt fire
-
@john-folan Thanks John, I've taken aboard your suggestions and selected the course and time on the events/market section of BFBM and that appears to work if you Scroll down all of the selections in tips form, however the bots are still not firing? and I can't figure out why?
I've got the strategies correct in BFBM, real money has been selected yet they're still not firing and I can't figure out why?

@nick-allan have you auto-loaded the horse racing win market??
A fair few have missed this step initially.

I’ve updated the first post import guide to make it really simple. Hope it helps
-
@nick-allan yes it does. The tips thing sorts all of that
-
@nick-allan no it works fine for me. Delete the SelectionID and Revision columns. Delete the ones you have on Bfbot and try again. That should sort it
-
Incidentally John if import tips will it allow you to run two strategies on one race? for example can you run your short odds strategy alongside say Martin short odds strategy if you selected both? I know that this has been a limitation with BFBM in the past for example I can't run an over 2.5 and under 2.5 goals strategy at the same time whereas I could have with BetAngel Guardian. But by importing the tipsters that allow you to run two strategies simultaneously or are both strategies gonna fire for the same runner? Hope that makes sense
-
@john-folan So did what you said but sorry john got the same issue?
Is there something I need to set up in BFBOT manager first?Nick
-
@nick-allan Change horse_name to SelectionName. Lose the selection_id column and that should sort your problem. Bfbot gets a bit confused. I’m going to update my instructions in the next couple of days.

Hi John, I bought the software yesterday and I've got a couple of questions I use BFBOT manager and I've been reading how you Imports tips from file as per the steps you show above. The CSV download from the horse racing software isn't exactly the same as the one you've got in the example above?
So I take it I change strategy_name to Provider? but I've not got a runner_name on my CSV file to change to SelectionID - is that the market_id? Or the selection_id? I can change horse_name to SelectionName that’s fine. So I went ahead and try to change the values to what I though they should be and I'm getting a completely different screen on the BFBM - so I don't really know where I'm going wrong?
Is there anything you can help me with? have I perhaps up the software wrong?
any help would be very greatly appreciatedNick

@darryll yeah . I don’t know why it has fav
-
@john-folan that's strange. It says this.
So you load it and check the 'my selections' box in order for the bot to process it?
