Update Trigger

Postby Specialone1 » Thu Aug 30, 2012 11:12 am

Sorry if this is answered elsewhere or is a dumb question but how many times would the update trigger change a bet? i.e. does it chase the odds?

using a simple trigger like if(E2="IN PLAY","BACK","UPDATE") would the bet keep updating until my full stake is matched or there is no one willing to lay?

Many thanks

When setting up the link to Excel untick the option UPDATE trigger appends "N" to new bet ref

When N is appended it prevents further updates, but disabling this allows further updates to work when the odds change.

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.
