I’ve built a SHG bot which works well for me. I’m happy to share it

Anyone fancy building some Fairbot bots for the football strategies we share?
Hi Martin, I'd be happy to help out, I'm not an expert on automation by any means but have made a few bots. Any particular strategy you would like done first?

@ian-wylie Thanks Ian, i will give that a go.
EDIT: OK, i've got it set up for AUS v NZ game tomorrow.

@stuart-wallace Here's the reply I got from Andrey at Fairbot:
I tested your strategy. It looks like it does not repeat the trades because the previous trade is closed by the Trailing Stop Loss. Please note that in this case it may be closed with profit because the trailing stop loss changes its position when the price moves in your favour. And very often the stop-loss trigger price becomes higher than the initial lay bet price.
To repeat the trades I recommend you use other automation features. Set the "Execution Count" option of the Rule to 20. Also, add the "Selection Bet Count" condition. Take a look at the following screenshots:

Well, without having done anything (except recall the original version from Dan), i 'think' i might have this working judging by the trades i got back from todays game... just need to find out why i get this annoying duplication of trades.
However, i am talking with Fairbot support too, as well as you wonderful guys, so hopefully we will have the definitive Bot before long.

@dan-mackinnon Hi Dan,
If you place a trade with Smartbets ticked, the stake will be adjusted so you make an equal profit regardless of the result. When it isn't ticked the stake will be the same for both back & lay
See below examples (1st without Smart Bets, 2nd with)
-
Does anyone know what the "Smart Bets" tick box does when playing a trade on the action tab?
-
interestingly, i seem to have got the original to 'work' - at least it seems to be wanting to place trades including SL...

@stuart-wallace Hi Stuart, how's your Bot coming along? I've got this one working and tested in simulation mode but without a stop loss. When I add a stop loss in then it doesn't repeat, I don't know if it's because only one of your exit points is met which means that it doesn't regard the trade as a success and therefore doesn't place the next 1.1 lay. The problem then with this Bot is that you will always loss a trade as one team will win the match so you need the 1.1 lay to 1.2 back trade to be successful twice during a game to make a profit. I've emailed support at Fairbot to ask if they have any ideas so will let you know what they come back with.

Hi Stuart, I can PM you my email if you want to export and send the strategy for me to have a better look?thanks Kevin.
I am starting to wonder if it is correct in as much as we are queuing a 2nd bet at 10 ticks more? -

cant for the life of me understand why the rule is being kicked in twice - tried taking things out and amending but still cant find it

not sure how to check in morning to see what happened?
any ideas?I don’t know how you can check what happened, but if bets were placed it’ll come up on your BF history.
i saw info on market watch list
-
@kevin-pepper thanks Kevin, yes they seem to be replicated, not sure why. Not done deliberately.
I notice this morning that i had 8 placed bets with 4 unmatched and 0 matched.
I assume the S/L isnt counted as it hasnt been invoked?
However, this is progress. -
@stuart-wallace
You should see whether the various bets were executed.
If the first bets on each team are executed won't the follow up ones be redundant as there will be unmatched or matched bets? The 2nd and 4th rows just seem to be a repeat of the 1st and 3rd or am I missing something?
