Out of interest, which version of Bet Angel was this created with?

Its unable to import the file as it was created with a different version and is not compatible.

Many Thanks.
Latest V1.48.1

Just as a matter of interest Dallas, could you adjust the timings to go inplay? I know this is frowned upon but just curious.

Yes the timing could easily be changed to whatever you want for each of the rules on the 'General' tab

Hi

Thanks for the file

I am relatively new to signals and was wanting to adjust the automation rule by adding an additional two rules to set signal if profit >£10 and a sixth trial green up. Most of this I understand how to do but in the new rule]sixth trial green up rule and the first condition signal trial for the current selection do I set the value to equal 6 -the sequential number or £10 the amount. I assume the former but would be grateful if someone could confirm I have got this right.

Yes its the former as the signals on this rule is being incremented by 1 each time its set so any future rules would be 6 then 7 then 8 and so on.

So If you haven't already done it the changes needed are;
Highlight the 'Set signal >£5.0' rule and click the icon of two green arrows that will duplicate this whole rule then just go into it and rename and on conditions tab change to >£10

Then duplicate the 'Fifth trail green up' go in and rename that and make the following changes to the conditions
Signal value cond equal to 6
trading profit with greening < £10

Thanks Dallas

- glad I am getting the hang of it.

I have adjusted this file to go in-play and on practice mode it seems fine -is there anything I need to worry about using it in this way.

I am using an approach that is aiming to B2L but wants to prevent greening out if horse is looking like it will win.

Its mainly for pre-off use so wouldn't advise using in-running, the volatility in odds and in-plat betting delay could play havoc with it as you could go from £0 to -£15 or more in one go

This is a basic Guardian automation rule which for use ANY Markets.

The bot will perform a similar function to the ‘Trailing Stop’ option from the Global Setting area and will monitor the selection in Betfair row 1 in the final 5 mins before the start of an event, once you have opened a trade as you then move into profit the bot will track this and be ready to trigger should a price start to reverse.

It works by setting a signal when your profit is greater than £1, if it then drops back below £1 it will green up for you. If your profit continues to increase another signal is set when it is greater than £2 it will then only green up if your profit then drops back below £2. It will continue to repeat this up to £5 effectively creating a monetary trailing stop to ensure you lock in a profit as a trade moves in your favour.

Also included in the bot is a ‘Signal changed condition’ to ensure the signal has been set for at least 5 secs before the green up will trigger. For example, if your profit has just exceeded £2 and set a signal should the odds then instantly move back a tick or two and bring your profit back below £2 then the green up wont trigger for at least 5 seconds after the initial signal was set.

To use the file just click on Trailing Monetary Stop Loss.Baf attachment link below and this will download it to your computer, then with guardian open on the "Automation" tab click "Import a Rules File" as shown in the image, once imported it will now appear in the drop down box just above, you can now apply it to any markets you have added into guardian.

Once you have it imported into your Guardian the stake size along with any other aspects of this file can be edited very easily by clicking on "Edit Rules File".

With any automation bot always run in practice mode first to ensure everything is working fine, and repeat this each time you make any changes.

Hi,

Many thanks for sharing I've downloaded the file do I have to initially do a trade in order for the automation to kick in and by trade does this mean placing a back bet or lay bet. I've tried a back bet and it went through as a normal bet and the bot did activate.

Kind Regards

Hi and thanks for sharing this bot its just what i've been looking for. In order for the bot to activate when I make a bet do I have to select "offset bet" from the drop down list then place a back or lay bet. Thanks.

You only need to make sure its applied to the markets in guardian, it will then kick in when/if the circumstances in the opening post occur

Hi, I am thinking of using this for my bot but I will just use the 'close trade profit condition' The bot I am using at the moment places Lay bets on horses in play when the price starts to drift out, however on the odd occasion the price has come back in again so I am just wondering if this condition good save me the odd substancial loss. Thanks

If you were to use on in-running markets I'd suggest only doing so early on, once they begin to get volatile you'll end up with a lot of premature triggers and missed profits or not being matched at all and still taking a full loss

Thanks for that I think the word volatile sums it up nicely i might have to adopt another strategy because when that lay bet does a U turn and comes back in its certainly a killer. Thanks for the reply.
