Hi everyone,

I am launching a bot for the first time and of course using practise mode. It fires numerous bets into various soccer markets which makes recording results exceptionally tedious and difficult and I obviously cant check them against my p/l on Betfair.

Thanks in advance!!!

Sorry is this a question or just a statement?

You forgot to add the question, which I take as obvious. :)

I've got exactly the same problem. I've spent a fair amount of time looking at the Betfair account/transaction data that you can download and decided that it doesn't have all the information I want for my database so I'm expecting to have to enter results manually. But if you're not as fussy as me you may have what you need if you look at and download the bet data, and perhaps import it into a spreadsheet or database.

It's practice mode. He can file your answer for if/when it goes live. :)

I thought for while it was advanced warning that someone thought they might be moving SP a fraction....but it turned out to be slightly less interesting.

Missed the bit about practice mode. :oops:

While on the subject, BA calls it practice mode, my previous software called it training mode, they're both inappropriate names and encourage newbies to practice trading in them. Testing or pilot mode would be better. :)
