had a few lock ups today

Bit disappointed with Cheltenham on Betfair, fill rate seems very poor.

Newcastle 14:15 was very tricky

That one was interesting. An identical play to Capitoul a couple of days ago. Literally everything the same, except the price of the 2nd - & the fav returning to 2.50 late on

would imagine punters keeping it dry for tomorrow perhaps?

[dragontrades]

Are BF still running TV ads for the exchange?

[Dallas]

Newcastle 15:25 is a bit strange
Lowest prize money of the day but has had over £250k matched with 7mins still to go, and a massive move on the fav

[gutuami]

super race as the commentators called it: chelt 15:35

Are those custom columns you have created in BA for the high/low and % in range, or is it in a spreadsheet?

It's the Market Overview window

Market confused about Briac

I didnt see the race but that first at Plumpton must have been a VERY close finish..
I thought Id post a screen shot I took in case anyone is considering a shot at automation..(this is using £4 liability stakes) with a twist
Now this isnt a big win as such, but I recon that if I had got one more match on clondaw, it would have a big win (by my standards anyway!)
I didnt post it to show the small winning amout, but to show how automation is perfect for recycling profits back into the market looking for a big payoff with relatively low risks
It actually surprised me reading through the log!

Was this in excel peter? I can't see how I can calculate the current profit on a runner to recycle it into the market with guardian. Maybe setup rules at different green totals?

Thx
Sam

Samo,
I had to back through the old post to see the image (attched for ref)
yes this was in excel. You wouldnt be able to do this from Guardian (The stake references cell C9, C11 etc in excel) and then uses some of that by adding it on the stake of the next bet if that makes sense? Snowballing or ratcheting as I call it
Amongst other things, It uses criterior to determine what profit you currently have on your selection (and if they are all green etc)
I think someone mentioned recently in the suggestions thread that it would useful if Guardian was able to check the value to equ to cell C9 in excel, ie the current profit on that runner? However that would only be part pf the solution

Incidentally, Ive very recently started useing Excel again on betangel on a spare account, the system basically replicates my bespoke BOT's. I would have though that they would be too slow, but the results are showing very positive so dont be put off by thinking that Excel is too slow.
Regards
Peter

Some decent backing activity again today so far

[Euler]

LV down?

I've been given a free £50 Betfair Sportsbook accumulator bet this morning.

When I tried to use it I got the message "your stake exceeds the maximum limit: Maximum stake £0.00"

I just assumed they'd make an exception for the free bet.
