Hi Dallas,

Please can you advice me about the settings for Export a profit and lose report.

I understand from https://www.betangel.com/user-guide/rul ... 3D&mw=MzIw that I will get one report a day.
I am running this bot in Practisch Mode
My selection contains 29 UK/Irish horse races.
How do I get from every race a profit/lose report?

Thanks in advance

Each time a rule triggers it will generate a report at that moment so you probably just want to trigger it at the end of each market (ie, when the odds trade at 1.01)

Alternatively If you have ticked the "Retain matched bet information at market settlement" - do this by going into Settings > Edit Settings > Automation and its located on bottom right. (See Image)

You can then click onto any market in guardian from your current session and view your Profit/Loss, matched bets info, details of automation rules that have triggered and logs of each market.

Hi Dallas,

I apply this bot to the entire selection UK / Irish horse racing - Todays Card.
To get a good picture of the Profit and Lose figures I added the rule "Export Profit And Loss Report" to this bot.
Because this rule issues the report once a day, I have no idea how I should set the settings.
Can you advise me?

Thanks in advance.

I am sorry not to have been clear with my question.
I added
"Export Profit And Loss Report- Saves a snapshot of the market profit and loss values at the time of the trigger. The values are appended to a date-stamped CSV format file (that can be read by Excel), so that one file per day is produced. The folder containing the data files can be found by clicking the 'Explore profit reports folder' button at the top of Bet Angel Guardian in the 'Automation' tab."

Each race out of the UK/Irish daily card triggers a couple of times. It varies from 1 to 5 up
So this rule will take from every race 1 to 5 up snapshots
Usually UK/Irish has about 30 races
That means 30 to 150 snapshots
All these snapshot appended to an Excel file, which will be produced one per day.

I have tried a few days but never received an excel file.
My settings are as shown in the screenshot above.
