The new Beta version is available to download from http://www.gruss-software.co.uk/Betting ... t_Beta.msi

1. Improved standard grid update performance. It now uses about half the CPU.

2. When you click the selection name of a new bet in My Bets it places the bet. This is now optional. Click the options button underneath the My Bets button and untick “Selection name click places bet”

3. Added average traded price column to grid interface.

4. Lay field and back field bets now log “cancel remaining when matched”, tick offset, stop loss and fill or kill settings in transaction log.

5. Added option to add French horse racing markets to quick pick List.

6. Added Excel triggers to load French horse racing markets in quick pick list. Win markets = “-3.27”, place markets = “-3.28”

7. When displaying the same market on separate tab pages it will now use the same price and bet refresh requests from the first tab displaying the market instead of making new requests. This reduces bandwidth and is useful for Excel users who want to run separate triggers on the same market from separate tabs. It only works if each tab has the same refresh rate.

8. Drop down selection list on ladder interface now displays last price matched next to each selection.

9. Fixed bug where application freezing when displaying chart on Soccer total goals market.

10. Added new Excel trigger “CANCEL-ALL-MARKET”. Cancels all unmatched bets for the current market. The bet ref column must contain something to allow the trigger to fire. It does not have to be a valid bet ref so “DUMMY” would work for example.

11. Added optional parameter to COM function placeBet: waitForResult. It is true by default. If false then placeBet does not return a bet reference.
The syntax is now placeBet(selecId:integer,betType:string,odds:double,stake:double,[waitForResult:boolean]): string

12. Fixed bug where below minimum stakes getting matched before bet fully placed prevented bet ref being logged. The bet ref column contained INVALID_BET_REF. This happened for example when backing and the odds had already reached 1000. The first part of the process is to place a back bet at 1000 which normally isn’t matched.

13. Fixed bug where correct auto select menu option not ticked when using Excel quick link feature. Even though “At specific time before off” was selected “Wait until scheduled off of preceding race” was ticked.

14. Added “–KO” (keep offset) modifier for Excel CANCEL and CANCEL-ALL triggers. Without this modifier any outstanding tick offset or stop losses will be cancelled prior to the cancel request, ie. you can use the cancel triggers to prevent them from being processed. “-KO” will prevent them being cancelled so if your original bet is matched just before Betfair cancel the bet the tick offset bet will still be placed.

15. Added option to add notes for Greyhounds in addition to horse racing.

16. Made horse and greyhound notes lookup case insensitive.

17. Added option to grid preferences to specify the number of seconds the selection name tool tip is displayed for.

18. When viewing multiple markets on the first tab the selected market name now appears as the tab name.

19. Fixed bug where first tab’s quick pick list not cleared before markets added when using Excel quick link feature. For example if you have UK and Irish Horse Racing markets loaded in the first tab by default, but have only chosen UK horse racing in the quick link options then the Irish races will remain in the first tab.

20. If more than one instance of Excel is currently running then both instances will now be recognised when using “Excel|Log current prices”. They will only be recognised if they are saved in the same folder.

21. Fixed bug where program does not close when message box appears asking for a new profile name and cancel is clicked.

22. Fixed bug where stop loss bet could no longer be triggered after UPDATE trigger used. Eg. if bet was placed with BACK-T5-SL10 and then UPDATE was used on the back bet the stop loss would not trigger.

23. Fixed minor bug where if multiple tabs refreshing the same market and “Auto” refresh is unticked on the first tab all markets stop refreshing.

24. Added option to grid preferences to stretch the silks image to fill its container.

25. Fixed bug where first market in quick pick list cannot be selected without first selecting another market if multiple markets displayed on first tab and first market is highlighted in quick pick list.

26. Fixed bug where traded volume not displayed on ladder interface or chart popup when a traded amount is at invalid Betfair odds. This happens when a non runner has been removed and reduction factor has been applied. The amount is now included in the nearest valid Betfair odds. Eg. £10 traded at 5.0 and £10 traded at 5.03. Previously only £10 at 5.0 would be displayed, now £20 at 5.0 will be displayed.

27. Fixed bug where Excel quick link blanks existing quick pick list when no markets selected in Excel quick link options.

28. Added “Apply to all markets” tick box in field bet options. If multiple markets are displayed on the first tab and this option is ticked then back field/lay field bets will be placed on all markets when back field/lay field button is clicked.

29. Fixed bug where only first market is sometimes logged to Excel when viewing multiple markets on the first tab.

30. Unmatched bets in My Bets are now always displayed in the same order as the selections which prevents them changing position when updated.

31. Added new option to quick pick preferences: “Retain quick pick list”. When ticked it will save the current quick pick list and restore it next time the program is started. It will ignore the
Markets selected to auto load. It will remember the settings for each tab so if you have two tab pages open it will open two tabs with their respective markets.

32. Fixed bug where possible to use Excel quick link option when ladder interface displayed. The ladder interface is not compatible with the Excel link so it will now automatically switch to the grid interface when this option is used.

33. Added option to add all in play MLB Baseball markets to quick pick list. Excel quick pick reload trigger is -3.29

34. Fixed bug where “Open all markets in current tab” and “Add market to current tab” quick pick right click options were selectable when viewing ladder interface. These options are not available in ladder interface so caused unpredictable results.

35. Transaction counter now turns orange when transaction count is between 800 and 1000 and red when over 1000.

36. Added transaction count display to ladder popup. It is optional, right click the title bar to change display preference.

37. Added cancel all bets button for all markets when viewing multiple markets on first tab. This button will also abort field bet placement across all markets if currently in progress.

38. Fixed bug where tick offset bets with offset bet at fixed odds placed by a custom column do not place offset bet at correct odds after the user has updated the odds of the original bet. The offset bet was being placed at the matched odds of the original bet instead.

39. Added German horse racing win and place markets to quick pick list. Excel quick pick reload triggers are -3.31 (Win) and -3.32 (Place)

40. Fixed bug where LAYFIELD Excel trigger not reporting error in bet ref column if bets not placed successfully.

41. Fixed bug where Excel LAYFIELD trigger not working correctly when decimal separator in Windows preferences is a comma. 1,1 was interpreted as 11 for example.

42. Place markets were only sorted by time in quick pick list, they are now also sorted by name.

43. When Excel UPDATE trigger returns an error the error code is appended to the bet reference. Fixed bug where partially matched bets not updating the matched stake and odds columns when the error message was appended.

44. Fixed bug where Excel bet time (column U) updated when LAYR present in trigger column even when bet not placed.

45. Added new option to general preferences to set a refresh rate for the balance and exposure. Set it to 0 to disable the update. The default setting is disabled.

46. Added new additional column to Excel: Betfair selection ID

47. Fixed bug where conditional bets firing on non runners. If multiple selections placed at same time then all failed because of the non runner.

48. Add new additional column to Excel:Silks URL

49. Added new stop loss option: “Chase if unmatched”. If the stop loss bet is not matched then it will wait the number of seconds set in “Chase delay” and then cancel the bet and place again at the current best odds. It will repeat this process until the cancel request fails to cancel any of the unmatched stake. Each time it calculates the stake required to produce a level loss based on the bets placed so far. This option currently only works when level loss is specified.
The Excel trigger modifier for this option is -SLCn where n is the chase delay.
eg. BACK-T1-SL5-L-SLC1 (back bet with 1 tick offset, 5 tick level stop loss and stop loss chase with 1 second delay)

50. Improved charting.
All colours are now configurable.
Added MACD indicator.
Bollinger bands can now be shown on all chart types.
Added option for chart to automatically change to selection that mouse is over on grid interface.
Chart position for each selection is remembered.
Charts now change to selections for new market instead of closing when new market is selected.
Here is a video showing chart options that are possible.
