automation in running

Postby P1BP27 » Tue Aug 12, 2014 7:36 pm

Wondering if someone could help with this & is it possible to do?

I have spent the last year analyzing the in running markets & seen that in certain races and courses only one horse gets matched at 2.0 or below.
What I would like to do is be able to do is place an automated back bet in the market when a horse hits 2.0 in running.
I have tried betangel where I do the following

I set current odds 1.01 and odds 2.0 and place at 1.96 on automation rule

A couple of times I have not been matched but seen over £2000 -£3000 has been matched when I am only doing £50.00 stakes. How are these people in front of me as I am not a layer? as in the betfair graphs money waiting to be matched is on lay side not on back side?
The reason for my email is because someone on betfair forum said Betange only puts your bet in as the odds go past, anywhere near the end of the race you have no chance of catching it & that. & they said the following:

gruss software
you may be able to do this with "conditional betting" in gruss
if not , someone can make you an excel sheet to do this automatically
plenty of advice/help on there forum
good luck


So I was wondering if you could help me?

Regards,
Paul

they are right, you can do it with conditional betting in gruss. Even gruss , or an excel spreadsheet, tho, will only be able to put your bet in as the bets go past, since there is no way to pre place an order.

what I mean is, if the back odds are 2.2, you cant place a pre order at 2.0, because when the bet hits the market, you will get matched at 2.2. So you would have to wait until the odds hit 2.0 or lower, and then place the bet.

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.
