Fairbot Automation Discussion
-
I’m considering trying fairbot in the near future using the pre made bots. They seem easy to set up just a case of copy/paste the code. Is it easy to change/check the staking?
-
@stuart-wallace-0 it's because of the odds you layed at, you don't have an even number on both sides, so in this example you have 36p if Delhi win and -31p if Mumbai win, hence why if Mumbai price shortens that's not good and if Delhi price lengthens it's not good.

I have posted this on the Cricket thread, but thought i'd post this on here for you wondrous people to see if you can put me out of my misery ! its driving my puny brain insane trying to understand whats going on here - so much so, that i in the 'woods and trees' position !
Am i doing something fundamentally wrong here. Its a simple lay both teams, catch one side on way down, and let other side drift for 10 ticks for a quick pre-match scalp of 7 ticks (hopefully).
@martin said in BTC Cricket Trading Thread:
@stuart-wallace-0 you have three bets matched on a two way market so you can green up either side
Thanks Martin.
I think i must be having a senior moment in this. if you look at the screenshot for todays example, there are 2 Lay bets matched. Therefore i would expect both teams to have potential green as prices go north. However, as you can see, Delhi start going into the Green when the price shortens, and Mumbai goes into Green when price lengthens, whereas i am expecting both teams to go into Green when Price lengthens (Bot concept being that upon Toss, one Team will shorten, and i can scalp a few ticks, and the other team will lengthen , which i will capture with the stop loss.) However, what i see possibly happening here, is if Mumbai win the Toss then their odds will shorten and go into the Red, and Delhi odds will lengthen and also go into Red. But, if its the other way around and Delhi win the toss then both teams will go into Green. Doesnt make sense as i have layed both sides.I get the feeling that i am missing something very fundamental here - for example, is this normal behaviour for laying both teams in a 2 horse race?
Am i missing something very obvious?

@nigel-hodson
have you tried building one yourself? This one is not that hard and a nice entry level to start playing with building your own automation
i did and it is working.
I just tried to send it but i cant get ik from crossover to my mac side of the computer so i can send it to you -
I like Ryan's lay the draw trades is there a place to download this to make it automated?
-
Okay I figured out how to fix that issue, here's how I did it incase anyone else comes across this problem. When setting up the bottle it loads through Windows 10 64bit by default, I changed this to Windows 8 64bit and the software works fine now. Hopefully this is of use to someone!

Hi everyone.
Wondering if anyone can help me out, I've recently downloaded Fairbot as an attempt to automate some of the trades I miss out on whilst at work. I'm running it on Crossover (as Ryan recommendation on one of his video's). I'm having issues with text not showing on the application though, when I add something to my watch list it gets added but won't show up any text. Same with the market selector, I can see there are loads of selections on the page but it's just blank. Am I missing something? And if this is an issue with Crossover itself, does any Mac user have a recommendation of how to run Fairbot reliably? I'm running on an M2 Macbook Air too if that changes anything.

@kevin-pepper I have now realized my error when changing the staking I accidentally changed the bet to a back bet rather than a lay for some reason I just doubled checked and it was only on the pace lay.
While I'm here, don't know if this is a common question but can you put two automation on the same race and how would you do that? an example would be pace lays and back the favorite automation.
It is possible to have multiple strategies on the same race. There are a few work arounds that I've posted in this thread before
1 - as Terry said have more than one version of Fairbot open
2 - as Kevin said create a master rule
3 - Edit your rules so they enter the win market from different markets. This is the more complex version but works just as well
if you see under Choose Market instead of default i have the other option selected to enter the WIN market. This means i could use this rule on any market in the race and it will enter the win market.
-
@john861 you've specified 'Morning line' for the Action but not under the Condition so the Condition won't be met for Morning Line.
This seems to be the most common problem Fairbot users have when initially using strategies with selected horses. You need to ensure every relevant occurrence of 'unknown' has a selection made
-
@kevin-pepper sorry to be a hassle but I've run the automation now in the simulation and it still has the same error code what could be the problem?
-
@john861 if you find there are pairs of strategies that are often both selected for the same race, you can consider creating a master strategy which includes both sets of conditions, rules etc.
The example shows the 'Lay beaten Fav' and 'Back Course & Distance Winner' combined. You'll need to ensure there isn't a conflict between combined rules but it sounds more complicated than it is...
-
@john861 At the moment you need to open another Fairbot to do that. If you have multiple copies of Fairbot running check your settings under options for how many data requests it can make.

@kevin-pepper yes it is. the pace lay 3-11 fs one
thanks

@john861 Hi John, which strategy are you having trouble with? Is it from the one's above or elsewhere? I'll take a look if you confirm / upload the strategy.
Cheers

Morning all, I have an issue with my pace lay automation I downloaded from the thread pinned, I would like to first say thank you for making it so convenient and easy to download and use. However, I selected the horses for the event on the pace lay automation and I got an error signal saying "condition error: selection fixed odds unable to find s" would anyone know what has happened?
-
@stephen-beale thank you for getting back to me! I didn’t know that, I wasn’t selection the horse in the areas you have said so I’ll give that a try on tonight’s races and see if that works thank you. How are you having multiple strategies on the same race as well mate?
-
@ross-love This sounds like you might not be placing the bets fully
I don't know for sure if it is this, but this has come up before, and it doesn't apply to Back The Fav, so this is my hunch lol;
There's two sections for placing the bets: the "Action", which is in blue, and the "Condition(s)" further over at the right, which is in black.
If this is the answer you need, you need to select the horse for each of these options. So for Back C&D, you have to select each horse 4 times, once in blue, and 3 times in black
If it's not that, then just give a shout and I'm sure we'll do our best to help

Hi, I was hoping someone could help as I've been trying to figure this out and look through the forum for a while now. I have added the horse racing strategies to fairbot and running them simulation mode but my pace lays and lay the beaten fave lay bets never place, and neither do Back the C&D winners. Back the fave at the off all place though. Is there anything I need to do after adding the strategies as in settings to change in order for these to place or have people simply just added the strategy and then select the horses from the daily email and they work fine? Or should I delete them and start all over again by re adding them? I've added all the races to the daily watch list, selected the strategy and the horse but they just don't place.
-
oke perfect. i had that but wanted to check it to be sure.
thanks for the quick response
