Greyhound bot available

[knot]

eyesnack, depends what you mean by 'longterm'. Perhaps you can post some data of results for the past year or two.

By 'trivial', I meant the algorithm that decides which to bet on. If there is some hidden code that I've missed then fair enough but it looks like the choice is somewhat simple. And v easy to code.

Regarding me not offering any spreadsheets, at least I'm not spamming the forum offering trials to apps which then have to be paid for.

spill the beans please doris what does the bot do? i cant be arsed to register for that tacky looking thing

[knot]

its the same old question: why would anyone give/sell a money making idea/spreadsheet?

[one click king]

Yes Doris I have done that, even says on BA it's linked, the Excel sheet is refreshing at a fast rate, nothing whatsoever happens betswise..

Knot, thanks for those kind words. Perhaps you can tell me exactly why no bets get fired, as you seem very knowledgeable. Or are you a thicko?

[knot]

also when would you ever need a spreadsheet to send you an email about a bet? lol

i'm thick as they come mate
i would be more than happy to help write a spreadsheet for you if you need one for greyhound racing. all the best.

I don't want one written and I do not even like greyhound racing, I would just like to make this work and understand what I'm missing.

[eyesnack]

Where does it say i will be charging anything for the bot ? I have never asked for any money from anybody on this forum and have written quite a few apps i can tell you.

As for yourself you are just one of the lazy moaning twats that trawl this board bad mouthing anybody who is willing to help.

No wonder people are reluctant to help other board members with arses like you around

Well knot i like to see how my betting is doing while at work, so being able to have e-mails sent to my mobile phone every 15 mins or so is very usefull. also my bot also can be programmed to change some of its betting criteria via incoming e-mail using #commands in the subject line to increase/decrease stake, change betting odds, when bet is placed and also to stop the bot. the e-mails are read using as they come into my inbox by excel which then parses them to a command spreadsheet that controls the bot.

But like a said to doris u2 r a complete waste of space and i wont be bothering to reply to anymore of your posts.

The "free trial" offer is your mistake here eyesnack. You should not of mentioned the word trial then maybe your spam would of worked better I dont think anyone has ever made greyhound betting work long term but whos to say its not possible.

Hi Arnold and All

this is not to brag but I have made greyhound backing/laying pay
consistantly for one year now. NEVER a losing week, average £800
per month. I only wish I had the brains to learn how to do some of
this automated/triggered betting because my method is manual.

It takes me about 2 to 4 hours per day, pretty simple but obviously
very boring. If only I knew how to automate it? Could actually make
substantially more if I could be bothered, but I have a bit of a life too!
The Betfair Premium Charge stinks and I get fed up filling their coffers!

I am sure it could be automated but not quite sure how?

That's all for now, all the best - Michael

P.S. Shame about the bickering above?

well done. i'm sure eyesnack could write you a sheet to auto your bets maybe for a months free trial lol.

2020vision, there are plenty of free Excel tutorials around and Excel anyway is pretty intuitive once you've spent a few hours reading up on the stuff.
The BA spreadsheets that have been posted by Gary are a great start and usually, if you have a well defined logic for working out your bets, there'll be a simple routine that will be able to automate it.
If you think you can make a lot more automating your system then it'll be well worth the little effort to learn Excel yourself.
All of my Betfair trading uses Excel routines I worked out myself with BA and I'm not a genius.

Thanks for your encouragement

not sure where to start?

Have looked at GHB site and that program kinda gets close and
would allow me to semi-automate. But ideally I would like to pull
greyhound info from RPost site and then "teach Excel" how I read it.
Place the appropriate bets at the right times (both back and lay),
change market automatically and trade me out with the best loss
or profit that I could expect - but this sounds a lot easier than done
to me? Maybe it is time for me to start a bit more research and see
if even a halfway measure is possible? (i.e. I program the bets I would
like to make and then hope the rest comes together).

I am not actually stupid but am having a tough time getting my
head around how to set up and work triggered betting in my absence?
Also I am worried that I fire in a bet when practicing that could
cause me to lose a small fortune because it went in at wrong price.

Thanks again - Michael
