Help with Auto Bet

[bmann13]

Hi,

I am having problems with the Auto Bet feature in the Alpha version of BA. If you look at the image attached:




I am trying to lay trap 4 between 3.45 to 5. Obviously I am doing something wrong so could someone here please guide me on how to correctly set up this bot?

Thanks in advance.

If you are doing something wrong I cannot see it. It should have placed a bet. I will investigate and get back to you.

Thanks Gary.

I've been playing about with this for the first time myself this afternoon.

Can you only use each autobet only once ? ie. you can't repeat the same bet by deactivating and the reactivating ?

Also - I could be being thick here !! - what's the point of chasing odds by more than one tick, you'll never gt matched. will you?

[Ian]

Just realised, using the tick offset can create a bet which isn't going to be chased.

Another question though. If you are chasing the odds, does the program ignore your own bet(s).
eg. if you wanted to lay at the best back price plus one tick, if you are the only one offering the price,
the program wouldn't top itself, wpuld it ?

[GaryRussell]

You can only use each auto bet once.

If you layed at the best back price plus one tick then yes it will top itself right up to the specified max odds It is only the Alpha version though.

Hi Gary,

Did you get a chance to find out why Auto Bet is not placing the bet?

Thanks,

Bob

[GaryRussell]

I'm afraid I haven't found a reason yet. I will be releasing a new Alpha version, hopefully by the weekend which will include more visual feedback as to what is going on.

[bmann13]

Ok Gary I will wait for the new release.

Thanks,

Bob

Is this issue linked to the one I mentioned on my thread in Discussion regarding Autobet or is my issue to do with something completely different - ie refresh rate?

[GaryRussell]

Your issue is different in that I put it down to when the market was being refreshed, but I now think there may be another problem, hopefully we will get a better picture when I release the next Alpha version later this week.
