You have a number of choices.

You can post your baf, pics of guardian etc.

I also have many problems with automation - typically I remove all conditions for bet firing, to check the thing works, then add them one by one.

To learn - i find it best to tick the log boxes, and watch what’s happening when the market is live.

People here will help - but need something to work with.

You could also try download a Dallas baf .. which will 100% work,
To see you have setup the environment properly

"Work" was easy. Arrive at the last minute, make coffee, read the papers, chat about the telly, and by then it's time for a nice long liquid lunch, then get a bit done between 3 and 5:01. Now I've actually got to do stuff! ;)

Arrive at the last minute? I'd turn up half an hour late and I only had to be in by 10. :lol:

:) I think this all explains why us being self employed is probably a good thing. One day they'd have noticed.
