I'll try and get the next version out on Friday. Unfortunately there is a lot to do.

Just had the beta version crash when I tried to update/amend the Log Multiple Sheets Quick link. Had to force a shut down. Happened with sheets attached and then again when i rebooted with no sheets attached.

It loads markets correctly, just doesn't seem to like me trying to amend any of the details.

Is it happening with historical markets or live markets?
Is it happening when you click "Save and close" or "Start logging"?

Live markets.

Start logging is fine.
I was trying to amend the details. It happened when i tried to click on the Add Pick List Markets.
Just tried again and the same thing happened, when attempting to click on the Add Additional Columns.

Sorry, that's definitely broke. It must have been caused by some changes I did to prevent windows being hidden behind other windows and locking the software. I will release an update on Friday.

This is a temporary workaround. The Excel quick link popup is being displayed as "always on top". After opening the form move it to the right of the screen as far is it will go with the quick pick list and additional columns still visible. When you click on them this time the list will appear in the middle of the screen and not behind the form so you can select them. This is just temporary until I can release a fix on Friday.

Sorry. I really wanted to release the next update today, but I really want to include the fix to ensure same results at different playback speeds. I am close, but not 100%. I will try and get it ready for tomorrow.

Hi Gary,

Still seeing different results depending on playback speed.

Example:

8th Feb - Market Rasen - 16.30 - Rosearelli

3 Excel trigger bets:

LAY-TL12-SLF2.64-L-SLC1 4.70 1.35
LAY-TL12-SLF2.64-L-SLC1 3.75 5.45
LAY-TL12-SLF2.64-L-SLC1 3.15 13.95

Stop loss fires and produces different results dependent on speed.

The results are also different (worse) than the actual race, but I'd assume that's cross matching?

Let me know what else you need?

Were all bets triggered before the lay bet was matched or were any matched immediately? ie. Can I just trigger them at the start of the race to replicate what you did?

It's not possible to get the same results as the actual race. Yes cross matching is one factor. Also the bets are not affecting the market as they would in a live market. Also some prices would be different because they are sampled at a different time.

Sorry, should have been more clear.

Yes, all bets triggered same time at the start of the race (5 sec in.)

I think I was able to load one market initially and then ever since when I try to add any Historical Events to my quick pick list, i get the message which says:




Cannot add historical markets while timeline is active


Anyone else encounter this message?

Yes, got that last night. Ended up needing to restart BA to be able to load historical markets.

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.
