sorry can't work out how.

What trigger settings to create a bet at BFSP with specified odds. Want to place my bets before work.

thanks in advance

BACKSP and LAYSP. The stake column sets the liability and the odds column sets the minimum/maximum odds that you want to accept.

what versions work with it? I'm on 1.1.0.63x

You need to upgrade to version 1.1.0.65t

Install it from http://www.gruss-software.co.uk/Betting ... istant.msi

Can't get this to work. I set Trigger column to BACK-SP, Odds column to 200 and Stake to 2. At in play, I get a back bet at odds BELOW 200. The facility on the main betfair screen is to place a BACK SP bet any time before the start of the race and specify a MIN Odds value. The bet is not made until the race goes in play, and only if the actual SP is greater than the specified MIN odds value. I suspect if I specify a lower odds value, and the current odds are already higher than my specified value that you will place a bet immediately and not wait for the race to go in play.

It's BACKSP, not BACK-SP which is different. BACK-SP sets the "keep bet" to SP so that if it is not matched before the off it is converted to SP.

I did say it was BACKSP in my previous post.

Is there a possibility to read about the SP feature anywhere. I too didnt find it in the user guide(User guide for version 1.1.0.65v).

It is in the user guide. If you look under "Version 65 changes" and then under "Excel changes" you will find the following paragraph.

Added new Excel triggers BACKSP and LAYSP. The stake column sets the liability and the odds column sets the minimum/maximum odds that you want to accept.

It doesn't say more than that as that's all there is to it. Are you having a problem using this feature?

Thanks for your quick answer.
No, I have no problems (in the moment!) as I'm very new to code triggered betting and have to learn the basics yet. But as I have to do my bets at BFSP I have to learn all facts about this...
Are there eventually any sample sheets for BFSP-betting available anywhere?

There aren't, but it's just the same as normal triggered betting except the bets won't be matched until shortly after the market turns in play. There are a few triggered betting examples here http://www.gruss-software.co.uk/forum/viewforum.php?f=8

Hi Gary,
have to thank you again for your quick help. Very much appreciated.

Hi Gary,

I'm going to use the (relatively) new LAYSP trigger for the first time soon.

I understand from the help guide which columns do what:

"...The stake column sets the liability and the odds column sets the minimum/maximum odds that you want to accept."

Can you please clarify for me exactly how the odds column should be completed?

For example, say that I want my acceptable SP odds range to be 3.00 to 5.90 inclusive, otherwise no lay.

How would I enter this in column R (Stake)?

Similarly, what if I had maximum acceptable odds, e.g. 5.90, but no minimum (or vice-versa)?

Thanks and regards
.

You cannot specify a range, Betfair do not allow you to do this.

When laying the odds column represent the maximum odds you want to lay at, you cannot specify a minimum.

When backing the odds column represents the minimum odds you want to back at, you cannot specify a maximum.

The stake column represents stake when backing and liability when laying.

Backing at SP
