Eventually there will be a help file. It will have to be included with version 1.0 otherwise it couldn't really be a proper release. I will NEVER charge for the program.

Thankyou once again it now works perfectly !

That function is so handy for the events where there is low liquidity and it may well save me from getting caught like I did this week on a dow intra when the odds changed from 2 to 20 in 1 second and I layed it for 200 quid. Fortunately I won

It's looking good Layit and seems to work a treat - must be time for another request

I play the aussie racing and often there isn't much liquidity (hopefully that'll change soon with one of the states - Tassie - looking at granting Betfair a license) so my problem is that there is often a pretty big gap between the lay price and the bet price. The override odds feature is good in that i can put a price in next to the bet price (or match it) but it only does it for the Stake defined rather than to secure a set profit.

So what i'm after is the ability to not only override the odds but to automatically calculate the stake required to make a set profit at those odds as well.

It's annoying setting up what would be a nice trading position and miss out because of the gap in the prices.

Hope this makes sense and isn't too much to ask - maybe there is another way to do it that i could be using???

Hi Layit,

Can you add to the softwear so you can back a horse at a certain price only ?

Such as setting the price at 1.5 and it not taking any prices higher and only gets taken at that price ?

Is it possible or not.

Thanks Arnie

Hi Arnie,
If I understand your request correctly then this is already possible. Set your back or lay odds in the top right and check "override odds".

arnies ... thats down to betfair not layit ... betfair always gives the best available price

What you are wanting to do is to order a bet when its certain of winning. I doesn't happen. You get the best available price at the time

Somebody has reported losing a large amount due to the program not performing the desired action. They backed a selection only to find it had not only bet on the wrong selection it also layed it instead of backing it. Has anybody else experienced this? If you have then please let me know. They also report that when you click on the 2nd lay column it asks you for your lay stake as if you have clicked on that column instead. I cannot find anything wrong with the code in this respect so if it is a problem I will have to remove the program from the site and ask that people don't use it until I can find out what's wrong.

Please be careful. It's probably best not to use it in running unless you are confident it's working.

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.
