Place market terms

[TJSN1]

I think I'm right in saying that when you load the place markets into Guardian, it'll give you the 2 place market for 5 to 7 runners, the 3 place market for a race with 8 to 15 runners and the 4 place market for 16+ runners.

Is there a way to retrieve the place market terms via automation so it knows how many places are being paid?

In Betfair, this is stored as, eg, '2 TBP' for the 2 place market when viewed in the betting history CSV download direct from the site, but I don't see a way of getting the info in Bet Angel.

Thanks

There may be an easier way but if not, you could store the market name in a text SV and then use the text comparison condition to search for "n TBP", then set a signal or SV to indicate the number of payout places.

Another bizzare ommission. You get #runners, but the very next item down #winners is missing.

If you divide the back book % by 100 and round the answer down you should get the number of places

any joy on this? I need to load some 2 TBP markets and some 3 TBP markets into guardian regardless of place terms

They can be added to Guardian the same way as any other markets

thank you for your reply. When there are less than 8 runners in BetAngel , 2TBP is referred to "to be placed" which is correct but if I want the bot to recognise 2TBP or 3TBP regardless of number of runners I'm a bit stuck. I want to write it in the bot to place a bet on a selection in the 2TBP market regardless of runners

'To be placed' is the regular place market and the payout places are determined by the number of declared runners

If you want a rule to trigger on just the 2TBP market then just use a 'Set/Modify Stored Value' rule and store the value as a text 'the market name'

Then add a 'Text Comparison' condition to the rules you want to trigger
