Gary,

For the greenup.xls spreadsheet, in column R there's already the formula =IF($T$2="Y";AA5;"")
What do i do to add 2 tick to the lay odds in this case?

If you've got those plusTicks functions in a module on the spreadsheet already you just change the AA5 in the formulas to plusTicks(AA5,2) i.e

=IF($T$2="Y",AA5,"")

to

=IF($T$2="Y",plusTicks(AA5,2),"")

and copy the formula down the R column.

If the functions aren't on the sheet just follow the instructions on the third to add a module and the plusTick functions

Many thanks Captain Sensible :)

One more thing, is it normal that the stop loss from the betting option is not working when the spreadsheet is running? Ex: after my manual bet, i'm firing the spreadsheet, after that i'm ticking the 'enabled' stop loss and enter an odds to exit in case it goes agains me but it doesn't place the bet when it reach my stop loss odd. Any idea why?

I'm not clued up with the stop loss functions as I never use them but I'd imagine if you wanted stop loss options applied to a bet you'd need to tick and set the options before the bet was placed not after. Also sometimes odds move so quickly in running that the stop loss odds may get missed, the manual should give more help than I can re:stop losses

Cheers mate !

Got another question. Instead of using the stop loss function from the betting option, can i set an automated stop loss trigger for a fixed loss amount(£20 for example) in the spreadsheet above?

If so, what would be the formula to add to this existing spreadsheet?

Thanks!

I have a hard time incorporating the stop loss formula in the R column along with the minustick formula.

The formula =IF($T$2="Y",minusTicks(AA5,2),"") work fine when its the only formula in the R column.

Same for the stop loss formula, it work fine when its the only one in the R column. For the stop loss formula, as i stated previously, it need to be triggered if the "greened up P&L" from the column AB5 reach over £20. I have come with this formula for the stop loss: =IF(AB5<=-20,00;AA5;"")

My problem come when i try to put the twos formula together on the same line in the R column:
=IF($T$2="Y";minusTicks(AA5;1);IF(AB5<=-20,00;AA5;"")) Anyone know what's wrong with this formula?

Hard to say without knowing what all the reference cells do, but from what I can see the formula IF(AB5<=-20,00;AA5;"") will only come into play when T2 is not equal to Y , does T2 change once a bet's been placed?

Like I say I don't use the stop losses but I'm sure plenty do and they've been around for ages on the program. Probbly better off using one of the established stop loss trigger modifiers than writing your own as they've been around a while and there's plenty to choose from

MIght be an idea to start a new thread regarding the stop loss .

Sports betting software from Gruss Software


The strength of Gruss Software is that it’s been designed by one of you, a frustrated sports punter, and then developed by listening to dozens of like-minded enthusiasts.

Gruss is owned and run by brothers Gary and Mark Russell. Gary discovered Betfair in 2004 and soon realised that using bespoke software to place bets was much more efficient than merely placing them through the website.

Gary built his own software and then enhanced its features after trialling it through other Betfair users and reacting to their improvement ideas, something that still happens today.

He started making a small monthly charge so he could work on it full-time and then recruited Mark to help develop the products and Gruss Software was born.

We think it’s the best of its kind and so do a lot of our customers. But you can never stand still in this game and we’ll continue to improve the software if any more great ideas emerge.
