Its clear people are using triggered betting, but dont want to share.
Thats ok, maybe its to be expected, but I wonder how long the SW will be free.
Common people, open up.
I cant program, - if I could, I would post code/ideas .. and maybe think of a way of
charging, with giving Gary a cut.

I have found one way that can help extremly well with price movements.
Logon to www.racingpost.co.uk late each evening, select each race for the
following day, then goto the tipsters section. There you have selections from
all the main newspapers and racing post tips. Back the top 3 selections
(depending on odds) that the majority of tipsters are picking. Then the next
day, when people buy newspapets etc, they will back the tipsters selections
which will force the prices down.
I have found that 97% of the horses i placed a back bet on had dropped by upto 4
ticks 5 mins before each race start. This meant i could then lay at a lower
price. This obviously doesnt mean you will win every race but you should at
least break even if you dont.

Basically I have excel set up to wait for the price to drop to 1.03 with the next price at 12+ ............. just when I make a nice profit there will be one horse that gets caught in the last. However, I've found this incredibly profitably on tennis (especially when there is game by game betting).
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.
