Using Offset with Stop Loss

Postby Shaun » Fri Feb 21, 2020 12:36 am

I have set up a simple sheet that puts in a bet with offset of 2 ticks and stop loss of 1 tick, if the stop loss is activated then the sheet will repeat the process once more using the same bet amount as before,

Now looking at my results sheet this morning, i will assume the bet references indicate the correct order a bet was placed i see some bets like this.

195568170191 Fighting Temeraire B 0.00 0 CANCELLED
195568154085 Fighting Temeraire L -10.39 3.65 RESULT_LOST
195568112893 Fighting Temeraire B 0.00 0 CANCELLED
195568104565 Fighting Temeraire B 10.00 3.55 RESULT_WON

I can understand the sequence of events BACK @3.55 this should have created an offset LAY bet@3.45 so am not sure what the cancelled BACK bet is, the LAY bet was unsuccessful so the stop loss LAY@3.65 was activated, this is 2 ticks above the back price not 1, then because this generated a loss the sequence was started again but cancelled as went in play.

So a couple questions, do you know why there might have been a back bet set as an offset to a back bet?
To ensure i get a 2-1 ratio of winners to losers should i set my stop loss at less than half my tick offset, for example change it to 4-1

Oh i also think i had an issue with my trigger, this is what i wanted.
BACK-TL2-SL1-L-IPC
BACK-TL2-SL1L-IPC

The bet was being applied but i think it was just a 1 tick stop loss not a level 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.
