Hi
My practice automation had few losses on races. Can never seem to get the bot to work better.
If you can have a look would be great see whats wrong.
Thanks
Automation had loss?

If the bot is functioning as expected, ie not bugging out, then the next step would be to look at which events are profitable and which aren't. Then try to find a common theme and apply the bot to just those events. Then, you can start to look at the events you're not automating and try to devise a strategy which suits those. It's always the combination of the bot and the market(s) which is the key thing rather than a blanket approach.
I'm not sure about your experience but also remember that bots generally return quite small margins and also have periods of losses which can last for long periods depending on your strategy. Sample size is a complex subject but you should probably go through several hundered markets in Live mode (practice mode is not 100% realistic) before you make too many judgements, unless it's just obviously throwing money away. By that time you'll also have a decent set of results with which you can start to refine your market selection process.
