Morning, A quick question, this is mainly aimed at the Bet Angel developers. I work within the industry using trading tools, but am looking for a suitable tool for my own personal trading, hoping Angel may be what I am looking for . Does the program have the functionality for setting a book, again and again. For example can I set the laying book for the field at say 110% overound, for a specific liability.
Or is there a way I can utilise the existing tools for quickly laying the field moving with the market with my overound already in. I want to be able to repeat such a trade again and again for a specific liability but with the allowance of quickly shifting my prices with the market. Is this possible ? any help appreciated..

On the bookmake function you can manually adjust the odds up to your own over round.

But for what you want I'd suggest excel.

Thanks for the answer mate. I suspected that might be the case. I was hoping there would be a tool to make the process as quick as possible. At work I use a tool which we can set the prices to a pre-decided overound
and fire in a newly compiled book second after second. Not on Betfair, but on a straight sportsbook.
I was sort of hoping that there would be a short cut tool for use on Angel. Anyone else with any other less manual methods than excel ? Back in the day I used to use betraderpro which is now no more, that had a bookmakers tool, for use on Betfair..

Have you tried the margin maker tool? Is that the sort of thing you were looking for?

Hi, no not used the margin maker tool. But by it's name alone sounds like the type of thing I am looking for. Will check it out and post up my verdict. Cheers for the heads up.
If all else fails it will have to be the spreadsheet. Type in the current prices of the exchange, and have a formulae to convert to my desired overound and subsequent stake. Bit cumbersome inplay but beggars can't be choosers. What I really need is a bespoke tool that scrapes the price from the exchange every 2-3 seconds and converts to my desired overound and liabilies. but I suspect I will need to pay someone with a bit more techy skills than myself.

Margin maker only applies to one selection.
