@john-folan thanks mate that would be amazing

Alan Dawson

Perfect, thanks. Its alot to take in, I had the afternoon to myself today so been getting stuck in watching the videos etc but working 50hrs per week doesnt leave much time to figure it all out. Loving the new software though, just need to find something that is profitable.

Hi all, im new to this and have been testing the stratagies aswell as trying out my own. My only problem is it is taking me hours to track it all and plan the set up the next days bets. Today I downloaded BFBot Manager and I am trying to set the bot for backing the Fav 1.5-10 odds at the recommended tracks. When i select the venues for this there are a number that do not appear in the list, for example Ayr. Does anyone have a Bot for this that they wouldnt mind sharing or a similar bot that I could use and adjust to help me along to create my own? Any help would be much appreciated, I will share it in here if I can ever get it up and running. Thanks, Alan

Hi Alan
@John-Folan is our resident Bfbotmanager expert here but For the tracks you have to either wait for them to appear when there are meetings and add them that way or at the bottom of the window where you select the racks you can manually type in the names of them. They need to be exactly how they are listed In BFBotmanager though.

I’ve got all the courses bar three now. I’ll sort a fresh upload of the bot tomorrow for you all.

@iain Hi Iain. I have you strategy saved and it looks very promising and I see Martin has included it in the Presets are but the preset starts at odds of 20 whereas I think yours is 2.50? Did you modify yours at some point? If you use odds of 2.50, the strategy shows over 2000 points profit compared to only 970 ish for the preset version.

@martin thanks mate will have a read through those now

Apologies as should have gone right to the bottom of that page

Martin

@james-turasz depends on the strategy, for example lay the field would not be much use if you did that

have you read my Q & A at the bottom of the opening post on this thread?

@keith sorry my back its the big back inplay odds 50+

Ah ok this is a trading strategy mate so we are backing those qualifiers at odds of 50+ (10 secs before the off) then greening up in play.

Evening Chaps,

I’m all ready to get stuck in to the strategies this weekend which look amazing on paper.

However I have 1 question - how is best to play the trades with multiple horse selections in 1 race?

Is it safer to avoid them races?

Cheers

James

@keith hi, quick question regarding this strategy, apologies of this had been covered before.
majority of the time there are more than one selection per race, how do you refine one to back or do you back them all? thanks in advance.

Hi Damian
Not sure which of my strategies you are referring to mate but if it’s the ones based on favourites then you have to select the fav within 10 seconds of the race start time that’s what the back testing is based on.
The horse racing software will give you all qualifiers based on the other filters but obviously it doesn’t know which is the fav until the race is run

@martin Hi Martin, I've got a couple of strategies I don't mind sharing. They are almost micro strategies & I often run them together as they won't produce many trades in a day, but for anyone looking to build a betting bank they can be useful. One deals with Irish maiden races and the other, races where all the runners are Mares.

@John-Folan how do you handle multiple qualifiers for your dob strategies? seems like the 8.30 at Clonmel a lot are going to qualify!

For the Zero Paced and Slow Horses I do the lot. I’ve got automation so its relatively easy. To be fair a lot won’t match on odds.

@martin this is my first created strategy, not even sure if i should be posting it here or not so please forgive me (I am brand new to the site), it looks very profitable with only about 5 selections a month but i'd like people's honest opinion on it if possible - have I back-fitted it rather than back-tested it? thanks0_1654806976303_rules_export.json

@lee-woodman blimey how many opportunities have we given current members to do that! I’ll pm you

To be fair the emails don’t recognise me as a current member so they are trying to charge me full price! I’ve got the one you sent and that’s correct, thank you
