Random Stake Generator
If you are keen to add a randomised element to your bet stakes to give you some degree of anonymity you could just set up some servants to place your back and lay bets.SeaHorseRacing wrote: ↑Thu Nov 10, 2016 9:22 pmThe reason for doing so is to stop people seeing your stakes and stop you being identified.
Theres a guy/girl in the greyhound markets tonight using £50 stakes. Its easy money for people who can see that. Put £150 in front and you have a nice trade for couple quid.
If for example you wanted a stake to be randomised up or down £2.50 you could set up a 2 rule Servant as follows
RULE 1 - Set Stored Values
set stored value sv1 = volume of selection plus volume of market (or some other fairly randomish values such as funds available at a price)
set stored value sv2 = stored value sv1 divided by 5 rounded to nearest whole number
set stored value sv3 = stored value sv2 multiplied by 5
set stored value randomish_adjustment = stored value sv1 minus stored value sv3 (at this stage randomish_adjustment should be in the range plus or minus £2.50)
set stored value randomish_stake = stored value randomish_adjustment plus servant context back/lay stake (taking care to use a servant context stake over £2.50)
RULE 2 - Place Back or Lay bet using the servant context price with the stake set to the stored value randomish_stake
For bigger/smaller adjustments use values other than 5 when setting sv2 and sv3 in RULE 1

How do I set a stored value to calculate my stake relative to the back price say at 3 sec before start-time?
eg. Lay the field, 3 seconds before off, at the back price odds, stake = back price/10
I've got the formula for doing this on excel but having problems getting bets fired which I think is due to the countdown clock not updating on excel bang on every second, so the clock might never read 3 seconds (0.00003472 in decimal form)

How embarrassing! It must feel as though all your clothes have dropped off in a busy shopping centre.
I've often heard of people trying to disguise their stakes but how is it a disadvantage to have 4 bets adjacent to each other on the ladder where people can identify them as from a single trader?
I presume they can't also work out the name and address of the individual.
