Hi everyone,

I'm very new to all this and a little unsure on what to ask where in some ways as I don't fully understand / have experience of everything yet. Despite my initial progress being terrible, this software truly looks like something else. I can't imagine trying to get orders in on the standard BF site let alone everything else this software is probably capable of. So I have some newbie questions if anyone wants to try answering them?

Guardian - I watched a video by Peter last night explaining in his columns he has the price of the favourite on any given race (and I think he had some other columns but I can't remember them!). I've had a look to see if I can do this with today's list and I can't find anything for favourites. I can see 'edit custom column' and I thought I might be presented with a list of loads of extras I can chose to display. Also is it possible to filter out races on criteria such as: maiden / number of runners / Novice etc. It's very handy they are listed by code and faster than looking at BF website but wondered if there's ways to try excluding some of the things I'm not very good at yet by default?

Excel - I've seen a few posts of people talking about excel but I thought 'maybe that's for tracking progress', but is it this / more than this / something else? How can we use excel with BA?

Automation - I'm guessing this is the software looking for scenarios and executing them. I think I picked up from the videos that we can download and install certain setups. Is there a basic one anyone can recommend that is relatively low risk for newbies to have a go with? Something popular that lots of people use perhaps? I think in one of Peter's videos he mentioned BA can alert us to significant movement / activity. I'm guessing even by then I'm too late to the party being so new, but thought maybe that is done with automation?

Predicted goals - I could be wrong on my terminology here, but in another thread I saw someone asking about loading up predicted goals / something like that so I thought I would like to try and find anything that helps to get me started with trying it / looking for games where there are certain stats to indicate possibilities.

Thanks for helping me :)

Automation - All samples given on forum are purely that, samples of what is possible to automate and how. If you apply them just blankly across everything you'l lose.
You won't find people sharing their successful ones.
