BFBM Profit Not Lining Up With Betfair
-
Hey guys,
Any idea why BFBM would show an all-time P/L of $20 in the bots and strategies section while the true profit is actually $42?
I still see all the bets from when the strategies first started so it's not like they've simply been deleted. Would it have something to do with the fact that I don't store much history in the bet section?
-
@Myles-O-Bery would it be to do with how the commision is set or anything? maybe check all the settings in BFBM align with your account?
-
First they gave me the cookie cutter advice - check that bets weren't in simulation mode, no manual bets on Betfair, commissions charged may be different, etc.
After I confirmed that none of these were the issues, their suggestion was just to restart everything and see if it happened again.
-
@Myles-O-Bery that's not good to hear, in what way weren't they helpful? What was their response?
-
After speaking with BFBM, they weren't super helpful. So I guess this is something I'll have to figure out by myself!

@Martin @Benny-Grahn Just waiting on a reply from them. Will keep you posted.

@Benny-Grahn I added a data validation drop down list as the last column.

Now i add in the days data from the betting company export then select the strategy from the cell next to it from the drop down list.
At some point i will use the BM export and combine that with the betting company export to actually add the strategy without me having to manually chose it via power query but i haven't done it yet.

@alexander-hughes This is a great way, but how you match it with the strategies in BFBM?
And isnt BFBM use the data from betting account provider?
Would be interesting what BFBM Support can help us with.Do you have some example data you can send to the support @Myles-O-Bery ? he support at BFBM is awesome and they answer fast

@Myles-O-Bery only thing I could suggest here is contact their support, let me know what they say I would be interested to hear!

It also changes day by day. Yesterday there was a $10 discrepancy which has now grown to $20 even though I didn't do anything besides let the bets run.
