Hello,

I am currently back testing 2 slightly different staking strategies on the same Over 1.5 goals market. Is it possible to create and run 2 different bots on the same market within Gardian?

Thank you in advance.

You can open more than one Bet Angel session and therefore technically have a different automation file working on the same market in each session. However they will both be working from the same Betfair account - so both files will see and react to open bets, matched amounts, green up positions etc. and may therefore interfere with each other - depending on what your files are meant to be doing of course.

Betfair has a thing called customerStrategyRef to help with this sort of thing but it isnt available via Betangel unfortunately

Thankyou very much Jukebox. That's a very good point which I had not considered. In my case, both files would indeed be interacting within the same Over 1.5 goals market as you point out and would therefore invalidate the results. I suppose if I wanted to compare the results from the 2 theories I could run 1 session in practice mode and log the results?

Thanks again for your valued input.
