Hedging again...

Postby motorhead » Mon Apr 10, 2006 12:44 am

I know we talk about this in the forum so excuse me for opening another 3d but I'didn't find a real rapid solution as I would like to have ;

let'say I made a back of 100 euro @ 3.5 than a lay of 100 @3.4 so now I am with a + 10 for that horse and 0 for the others.
now I want to go all green with every horse:
this is what I actually have to do: open the windows calculator and do 10/3.4=2.94 and then lay 2.94 euro @3.4 and have +2.94 on all horse.
as you can understand open the win calculatore and make the division is not the best.

I was thinkig that Lvl profit column have to do this but from what I’ve understood this isn't his function, when I press the Lvl profit button and there are the conditions for go "all green” with an equal + for every horse the program place another bet on the horse I’ve backed before.
how can I do this with one rapid click if there is this function... ?

I think the idea is that you use the level profit button, but before you lay back the original bet. Trading mode must be ticked. When you click the green level profit button it will lay back the right stake to make equal profit on all runners.

the problem is that the Lvl profit button doesn't work, when (in trading mode) I've a + on one horse and - for the others, and there are the conditions for go all green some times the Lvl profit make another bet on the horse with +, so I've more + on that horse and more - on the others :(

That's not how it's supposed to work. All the level profit does is give you equal profit on the last matched bet on that selection, or if you untick then tick trading mode it brings up a list of your bets which you can choose from as long as you don't include both backs and lays.

If you want to trade more than 1 selection building up different profits and losses on different horses then have 1 button to press to green-up it's a job for Excel I'm afraid.

Rather than placing 100 euro on both sides of the bet you could BACK 100.00 euro @ 3.50 then a lay of 102.94 euros @ 3.40. The calculation is (BACK Odds * Stake)/LAY Odds. With triggered betting you could get EXCEL to calculate this for you and get it to place this amount on the LAY side.

Alternatively download my Hedge Calculator @ http://www.thunderfoot.f2s.com/betting/hedgecalc.htm :wink:

nice prog thunderfoot. but I'm talking about a simple single click button inside the BA (so click it and go all green of course when it's possible). as I said I thought that this pits the function of the button Lvl profit.
I'don't know if we can integrate your prog with BA to make this happen, probably it is not possible, I'm telling these because if you think there isn't a big difference between open win calulator and (BACK Odds * Stake)/LAY Odds etc. or use you're prog when you've few second to operate. anyway now I'm using your prog in footbal match and other sports live

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.
