If the bot simply backs then lays it's a lot easier to write a formula than if it can either back or lay first. Mainly because you'd just apply another AND condition about inplay to the BACK routine if it backed first and let the LAY run as usual. MIght even be easier for you to control things if it's random by using the excel offset triggers.
This spreadsheet will place a back bet at the current best back odds and when matched placed a lay bet for the same stake at the current best lay odds. You must select to log My Bets when linking to the spreadsheet for it to work correctly.
It uses the SUMIFS function to calculate the total matched back and lay stakes. When they are the same it means another back can be triggered as the previous trade is closed. It only checks up to row 100 on my bets so if the number of bets exceeds 99 it will not work correctly.
is exactly what I was trying to do without success as I would end up in a loop placing multiple Lay Bets.Mainly because you'd just apply another AND condition about inplay to the BACK routine if it backed first and let the LAY run as usual.

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.
