Late goals

[grahamhills]

Hi

I would like to automate the following scenario:

80 minutes or later
Current score line of 1-1, 1-2, 2-2, 2-3
Back another goal - so O2.5, O3.5, O4.5, O5.5
Odds of 2.5 or greater

Pretty simple plan - any existing files or advice how to put this in place would be great.Many thanks in advance..

It's doable.

You need to workaround the following challenges:
> Bet Angel does not know the match time so you will need to estimate the 80 min mark using in-play time. (ie 45 mins + estimated injury time + estimated 15 mins break + 35 mins of second half).
> Bet Angel does not know the current score. So you will need to use the goals markets to set stored values as each market becomes active. (ie if 0.5g market is closed then assume 1.5g market is active, if 2.5g is closed assume 3.5g is active etc etc).

You need to load all relevant markets into Guardian. You need to store values at "event level" so they communicate across all markets under the same event.

Cheers. As I feared, it looks like I need a software degree to confidently put in place any sort of system.

Hi Graham,
Once you start getting an automation file together it really is not as daunting as it may seem, I find them fun to build and learn a bit more about BA every time, there is always much help and guidance from forum members, hands on is the best approach!

To get a bot together to achieve your "goal" in opening post, why not start easier and lay the current score if the current score is any of the score lines you mention, 80 mins into the match ? I think there may even be a ready made file somewhere that does just that (or very similar)......and I am sure some one will direct you to it.

good luck!

Maybe bet angel could have a timer bar at the top some time , like the horse racing race timer
