If your going to give it away, just give it away. There's no need to make a game show of it or create a 10-page thread!
Welp, you gotta call it how you see it.

For starters if you're looking to help someone then don't take his money, sort of a no-brainer there. And don't use his money for a charitable donation either, which is somehow even worse, it's hardly charity if it's not your money in the first place.
First of all, the price I was thinking about is much lower than something like that would be worth.
There's something really strange about advertising a bot, not being prepared to say for how much, and then offering it for free!

It's even sadder that no one wants it. :lol:

I will give away something for free, no donations needed, for newcomers who may not be in the know or struggling:

Horse Racing

The All Weather tracks in the UK throw up far more < 2.0 gubbed horses by a long margin. ;)

- Lingfield
- Southwell
- Wolverhampton
- Newcastle
- Kempton
- Chelmsford City

So, my advice, dont use real money just yet, study races at those tracks or download the BF stats. See how many horses in-play trade < 2.0 in the same race and then you should be able to come up with a plan/strategy etc.

See what happens when the back book% goes over 120%. ;)

Have fun,
what's a "gubbed" horse? one that's been banned?!
It's a Mare, or Filly [youngster], in season with a but-plug to keep the men away :)

I want to crack this "nut" with my own efforts...you learn more that way and become more resiliant. You need more than just the gift of a strategy. Also the "price" was too high for what I determined the "risk" was, I don't know Trader724, I could have been throwing another £x down the drain...on a scam...who knows, Answer this question "Would you send a significant sum of money to someone on a community forum you don't know...?"
What price?
In wouldn't want to upset Trader724's negotiating position, but it would have more than doubled my trading debt...

As I said earlier, I generally balance the risk and the reward. Shortly the answer is yes, because I invested not only £1000 on much riskier things but also the reward was big, but it depends how much £1000 means for someone. I have not sold intellectual property online I do not know how it works but it must be a legal and secure solution.

Sorry, i should have said. :lol:

My definition of a gubbed horse is one that trades < 2.0 in-play and doesnt go onto win. ;)

Even if it worked there's no guarantee it would last long for the person who adopts it. Traders are traitors that take advantage of their own species and will do anything it takes to transfer wealth in a zero sum game without trace
Are all your strategies guaranteed to work forever?
Nobody’s strategies are guaranteed to work forever, but if you have built a bot yourself, from scratch, done the research, the debugging, the testing and analysis, then when the bot needs tweaking or parts rebuilding you know what’s what.

If someone takes on your bot that is a novice in automation they will most likely have no idea how it works, what the background is, how to tweak if necessary and what to look for before that stage.

If it works like a Ferrari and you give it or sell it to someone who is still learning to drive, expect a crash

Ha Ha Ha, I nearly swallowed my Pizza.
You have actually given me a lightbulb moment !!! Word is, I'm going to be investigated by the compliance team at Foxy Bingo, scared. If I can sell a Bot I can use the proceeds to blackmail them ;)

T724 doesn't have a negotiating position, nobody in their right mind is going to buy it. Besides, he says he's giving it away for free.

I didn't say that I give it as a bot, it's just a simple strategy that can be automated very easily.
