Dutching correct scores

[Redders]

Hi cannot work this out ?? I chose my six correct scores , then clicked to the right of the dutching tick to make the box go green ..

This I assume makes this a no lose no win score , did this on 3 scores submitted the bet only 2 scores have now come up and I am in the red with the other ones any ideas ??

Thanks Redders

Maybe there was an error placing the other bets. If you view the transaction log under the account menu does it list the dutch bets it placed and show any errors in the API response column?

[Redders]

Just went into the transaction log Gary dosent show any thing ??

[GaryRussell]

Had you closed the program and re-opened it? It only logs bets in the current session so they would disappear if you re-opened it since. If you haven't then there must be at least something there for the two bets it did place. Did you happen to notice at the time if it had actually placed 6 bets or only 2 by looking at the bets manager at the bottom of the screen?

What I am trying to establish is did it only place 2 bets or place 6 and did not give the result you wanted.

[Redders]

Ok Gary ,, yes I have closed and re-opened the system .

Ok it placed all six bets but not the result I wanted . I was before placing the bets in green on 3 profit on 3 .. When I placed the bets was red on 4 only in profit if they win on 2 ??

[GaryRussell]

Had you already got bets in the market before you placed the dutch bet?

Is it possible to send me a screenshot showing the 6 bets in the bets manager and your P&L so I can get a clearer picture of what you are saying?
Email it to admin@gruss-software.co.uk

I had know bets in the market Gary .. Cannot send a screen shot I have now replaced and traded out to cover my red figures .

I dont want to use this Dutching feature now Gary cannot trust it !!

Thank god I didnt use bigger stakes .

[GaryRussell]

The dutching feature works. At least give me a chance to look into it before dismissing it. You can still send me a list of the 6 bets including stake and odds from your statement so I can simulate your P&L and try and get a handle on what happened.

I was trying this feature out small stakes put my max Liability in , ticked six scores , clicked to the right of the tick on some box goes green shows a 0.2 ? 0.1 profit so ok ........ hit the dutching button the list comes up I submit

Only 2 bets show profit the rest show red figures What could I of done wrong ??

[GaryRussell]

It doesn't sound like you did do anything wrong. I've just tested it on a correct score market and can't see a problem. Without the list of bets I haven't got anything to go on.

[Redders]

Have had a look at the main Betfair log the 2 correct scores that showed profit were matched at 09 16 hours the four other correct scores were matched at 09.33 .

I submitted these all togethor with the dutching button on Gruss , and straight away they showed red figures on 4 correct scores , and green figures on 2 scores that were matched at 09.16 .

Got a headache now !

Thanks for you help

[GaryRussell]

So they weren't all matched initally? When you submit the bets it's not guaranteed they will be matched straight away, the same as if you had placed them manually. If only two were matched initially then that's why the other 4 were red.

[Redders]

though the dutch tool would match straight away Gary as long as I didnt ask for higher price .

Thanks for your time with this I will try it again later .

Have a good one in Warrington on Thursday

sorry to be a pain

I use the dutching feature week-in week-out on the English Premiership Half Time correct score market and I've never had a problem. The only time I've seen 'red' figures against some of the bets I've placed is when they haven't all been completely matched - But this is easy enough to spot in the Bets Manager Grid
