Most of us are just using our homemade bots with either excel or BA's guardian functions. Think there's a few people using Guardian on this thread

For my bot, should I green up near the end or let it run as a bet? It feels like it shouldn't matter from an EV point of view, only greater variance if letting it run?
Download your betting history from your bf account, open it in excel, filter out all Back bets and find out if your pure Lays are more profitable than hedged ones.puntinrolls wrote: ↑Thu Jan 14, 2021 10:49 amFor my bot, should I green up near the end or let it run as a bet?

Don't know if relevant but forgot to mention I'm really just talking about if you take just one side, ie you are just on the back side with one bet and haven't "traded" out with a lay. I think people would call this a value bet? Hope this makes sense still not down with the vocab
If it's profitable in a long run, then, yes, it's a "value bet".puntinrolls wrote: ↑Thu Jan 14, 2021 7:27 pmDon't know if relevant but forgot to mention I'm really just talking about if you take just one side, ie you are just on the back side with one bet and haven't "traded" out with a lay.

You (your bot) have a back bet in the market, I think you have 3 options.
1. Do nothing
2. Green up
3. Take SP
I'd like to here peoples opinions/thoughts/advice on what's standard In this scenario or perhaps it doesn't matter to much.

They settled as usual no voided bets, was settled at 10.33 so doubt they'd even noticed they suspended late.
It seems likely they settled it as normal as they managed to suspend it before the race finished. I think in my case they had forgotten to suspend it altogether.spreadbetting wrote: ↑Sat Jan 16, 2021 12:42 pmThey settled as usual no voided bets, was settled at 10.33 so doubt they'd even noticed they suspended late.

1 is more expensive than 2 in terms of commission
2 is more expensive than Reverse Greening
