Alternate Level Profit works in a same way to the Level Profit column but the difference is that you can specify a number of ticks higher or lower than the Level Profit column would have used.
So for example, let's say you initially placed a back bet at 5.0 and then subsequently the Level Profit column shows a potential profit figure that if you clicked on would place a lay bet at say 3.0, you could use the Alt Level Profit to place the lay bet at say 5 ticks lower (2.90) which would result in a higher profit. Of course you are relying on the price coming in further so there is no guarantee that you will get matched if you use Alt Level Profit.
In the example above you could also tick the Offset opposing checkbox if you want the ticks to be counted from the best back price or from the best opposing lay price which would result in a higher price being used.
Tick the Enabled box to display the Alt Level Profit column in the Market Grid.
The strength of Gruss Software is that it’s been designed by one of you, a frustrated sports punter, and then developed by listening to dozens of like-minded enthusiasts.
Gruss is owned and run by brothers Gary and Mark Russell. Gary discovered Betfair in 2004 and soon realised that using bespoke software to place bets was much more efficient than merely placing them through the website.
Gary built his own software and then enhanced its features after trialling it through other Betfair users and reacting to their improvement ideas, something that still happens today.
He started making a small monthly charge so he could work on it full-time and then recruited Mark to help develop the products and Gruss Software was born.
We think it’s the best of its kind and so do a lot of our customers. But you can never stand still in this game and we’ll continue to improve the software if any more great ideas emerge.
