I suspect Harvey wants to specify the stake of others, and not just himself.

Sorry it does work when I use on two horses but not when I use 3 horses. I think it is a mathematical problem which I have to sort out.

Hackeoff it would be more profitable for all if layit made it that stakes less than ?20 a time couldn't be entered..............we all might as well get the most from the software whilst the good times remain......

so a simple piece of code excluding initial stakes of less than 20.00 would do it layit.

Why do we want a 20 pound minimum ?

I trade in 500 a time but I often use stakes smaller than £20 for the outsiders. Ie 2 quid for that 70/1 runner that won yesterday. Forcing some of us to put £20 quid on a 70/1 horse is out of order if you ask me.

Leave the stakes as they are.

i see what you mean about the outsiders np,but if we increase the stakes the momentum of money generated before racing will greatly increase the profits for all of us,i'm thinking that if we introduce a £20 minimum now then we will all benifit,i'm hoping that the program will generate enough profits that three months down the line it could be a £40 minimum....................

the profits are exponentional,so hopefully everybody who increased there stakes to the £20 min would be reaping the rewards in the long term and the £40 min would be affordable by everyone.

seems to me this is very much a seize the day opportunity.

I just can't follow your logic. How can making people place bets of ?20 be better. I wonder how many people as a percentage of Betfair users actually use this programme? A very small number at a guess and certainly not a enough to change the overall liquidity on the trades.

Hi Layit,

would it be possible to make the following enhancement:

To instantly send orders once certain conditions in excel have been filled. For example if, let's say, in cell A1 appeared "1", then the program should immediately back the quantity specified in cell A2 at current price.

There are a couple of programs in the market which does this, but they are expensive and, most importantly, i do not know how reliable they are. But you are doing a great job so far and if you could do it, I would gladly pay you for this enhancement.

Basic triggered betting from Excel is now available (ver 0.96). It's not very sophisticated yet. I plan to do more.

When you choose 'log current prices' and tick 'enabled triggered betting' you will see additional column headings in the Excel sheet. When the words 'BACK' or 'LAY' appear in the 'Trigger' column then a bet will be placed using the values you put in the odds and stake columns. The bet ref and time will be recorded.

Important: The program checks the bet ref column to see if a bet has already been placed. If you blank this column after a bet has been placed, it will place another one.

The trigger can be derived from a formula. eg. to back a horse if the lay price drops to 1.05 or below:-

=if(h5<=1.05,"BACK","") - where h5 is your 'Lay Odds 1' column.

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.
