WHAT I AM TRYING TO DO:
I have spent the last 5 months collecting data and developing some value bet systems that I believe are going to be very lucrative. I am now ready to start using real money at small stakes to see if results continue to be good.

So I bought Bet Angel Pro, I have downloaded the template spreadsheets, and i can see it works to enter text on the horse i want to bet on, but I have a few questions and not even sure if this is the best approach for what I am doing.

MY PROCESS:
About 15 minutes before each race I am selecting my picks, and noting a couple of stats. From here, everything could be automated: At 1 minute before the race begins, I check the current odds on these selections and place some bets depending on a few things (like the stats i noted) which I place at BSP.

MY QUESTIONS:
1 - If I want to 'select my picks' and then have it be as automated as possible from here, am i best off doing this with a spreadsheet or via the automation tool?
2 - If spreadsheets are the way to go, am I right in thinking I need to do it like this?
  • Make a new spreadsheet and link it to the Bet Angel multiples template, to import the horse list to my New sheet
  • Add a column for signalling I want to place bets on it / that I am selecting it as one of my picks, perhaps with a '1' in this column
  • Add columns for adding my other 'data'
  • On the Bet Angel template, in the green boxes, add a formula that links to my New sheet that works out which bets to place (if any) on each horse
  • Finally, have a global command that sets all bets to take SP (because i want to bet at BSP)
3 - Assuming this is moreorless correct, can I do this on more than one race at a time, by simply using 5 sheets/tabs for example? So I can line up 5 at a time? Is there any special consideration to what happens after one race finishes, because, will the data on race 1 get replaced by the data of race 2? How would I make my New sheet do this also so that I don't end up betting on the wrong races?

Sorry if this is a lot to digest and sure, I will probably be told to watch a bunch of videos etc. but I have made a start and will keep going in the mean time - but time is very limited here having just had twins, so if anyone can save me even a few hours of digging, it will be much appreciated, thank you!
