Auto select markets

Postby keesbart » Fri May 14, 2010 10:31 pm

Hi,
I am using the Auto select markets possibility for going to the next market (wait untill scheduled off) for horse racing. My system runs completely automatically.
Today I noticed that when a race is still In Play and the next race is scheduled, then the programm breaks off the race In Play and fetches the market that is scheduled.
Is there a possibility that when the next race is scheduled off during the In Play of the previous race, this race is skipped?

There isn't a built in option, but you could build the logic yourself using the -1 trigger in cell Q2 to move to the next market. You then would not need to use the auto select option at all.

Gary,
Thanks for your quick reply.
If I understand it correctly, I have to put -1 in Q2 and then the system automatically move to the next market after closing the current market?
Or I have to put -1 in Q2 after the race was suspended and during the In Play Q2 must not have the value of -1?

You insert -1 in Q2 at the moment you want the next market selected so you need some logic to determine when that time is.

I've just read your first post again and am now a little confused. If you use the "At scheduled off" option it selects the next race at the scheduled off time of the currently selected race, but you are talking about betting in play this option will cause you to miss the in play action as it will be selecting the next race on or before the race starting.

Can you clarify exactly when you want a market to be selected? Is it your intention to bet in play and select the next market after the race has finished? I can then provide an example.

Gary,
English is not my native language, so there can be some misunderstanding.
I use "at specific time before off" with 1 second and "wait untill scheduled off of preceding race" at the same time.
Perhaps I should use "wait untill actual off of preceding race"?

Gary,
I think that my problem is solved.
I am now using the Q2 trigger(-1) under conditions, and untill now the system does exactly what I want.

Sports betting software from Gruss Software


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.
