Hello experts,
after loading a stack of possible trading-opportunities into Guardian, it would be fine if I can filter the selection.
For example "Volume > xxx,xxx GBP" or all "over/under 2.5 Goals". The market is mentioned, but after the main market, e.g. "West Ham v. Sunderland - Over/Under 2.5 Goals". I can not see all "Over/Under 2.5 Goals" markts queued line by line.

An opportunity like MS Excel provides with the "auto filter" function would be great: Over the headline there is a new filter line and only these rows are displayed whose cells fit to the entered selections.

If there is another solution to my problem, please let me know. If there is anything unclear with my lines, please also let me know.

Best regards,

Chris

Guardian search is only AND or OR. But it's still a pretty good start - eg, "Over/Under 2.5" AND Barclays

But if you still wanted to filter by volume that's easy with an automation file. Either play a sound alert when the volume is above 100k or whatever; or you can block positions unless a volume condition is met.

As a sidenote, I wouldn't go too steroid on markets. If you can find half-a-dozen that suit your edge in one weekend that's already good enough. Doing that manually is quite okay. My view anyway

good luck!

Hello Kelpie,
thanks for your 2 cents. I totally agree, doing it manually would really fit for me.
Unfortunally, the BetAngel guys are restricted by BF in using their data, I would like some other searches, too. For example on soccer where both team odds are in the range of 2.00 to 3.50 and the volume is >100k. I always think that I miss an interesting game just because of the fact I'm not thinking about that particular match.
I normally scan the major leagues where pretty much goals are scored (DE, ES, IT, GB, maybe FR and TK / Turkey).

My volumes are not that high that they might influence the market, but I feed better when spreading the volume on several markets than placing a huge amount on just one match. If this goes wrong (see Arsenal today, Dortmund yesterday or ...) I have a major problem.

In my ideal imagination Guardian will filter the possible matches for me, reducing them from >300 to maybe 20 or so. This result must be scanned manually, for sure! But this would save a lot of time for me. Or how do you deal with the mass of possible matches, not only on the football markets?

Best regards,

Chris
