Help request to create a football bot

[akos93b]

Hi,

Looking for some help to create a bot.

The idea is, to select a large batch of games, where there's a heavy favourite playing, and if the game is at draw or the favourite is trailing by 1 goal, with 10 minutes to go, i'd like to have a bot that automatically drip feed some stakes into either to over goals (for example, stake £5 at odds of 2, 3, 4, 5 etc.) or lay the draw starting at odds of 2, then 1.9, 1.8, etc. all the way down to 1.01.

I done this strategy manually, and with over a large batch of games, it's surprisingly profitable. It takes a lot of monitoring the games though and setting up everything manually is very time consuming.

Would there be a way to create this bot? If so, could somebody help me with this please?

Apologies if the information provided is not enough, i'm kind of new.

Thank you!

The next goal option is more complicated because it required multiple markets per match.

Easiest one is the lay the draw because it's just the match odds market.

Here's something to get you started. This only lays @ 2.0. You'll need to add another ruleline for any other lay price required.

Hi,

Thank you, James!

I heard about the lay the draw strategy, but never really got into it myself. Do you have any data of how consistent & profitable is it using the bot mentioned by you (laying the draw @ 2.00)?

Thank you!

I don't have any data, but I've no reason to believe it will be profitable. You risk your lays getting picked off as they become value leaving you losing in the long run to the value of commission plus a little spread. Or perhaps you have stumbled on a very simple bottle of secret sauce?

Well, I discovered when the favourites are one goal down or the game is at draw, the over goals with higher and higher odds seems to work well over a large sample of games. The reason why I don't think laying the draw could work, is because the favourites are usually pressing hard, and can easily concede a goal on the counter, turning a 1-0 deficit to 2-0, in which case the over goals win, but the "lay the draw fails". Liverpool has been a very good team last season for this strategy, as well as Leverkusen the season before. I start to bet on over goals at 2.00 all the way up to 8.00, so I basically spread the stake I plan to use to 7 small stakes. They land more often than I expected.
