How to use the CLEAR reference

Postby easternpromise » Mon Feb 07, 2011 1:03 pm

Hi all,

How do I use the CLEAR ref so I can place multiple bets.

does it add into my betting trigger or do I just add it into column T ?

Thanks

It goes in column Q like BACK and LAY triggers. All it does is clear columns T to W unless you don't have "CLEAR trigger clears matched odds" ticked when you link to Excel in which case it only clears columns T and U. Because it clears column T this allows another bet to be triggered by BACK or LAY.

Gary

Just to check i am using this correctly in a formula.

Taking your trigger from the Back 3 Fav Sheet

Q5=IF(AND(AA5=3,$S$1<=10,$T$1=0,$F$2<>"Suspended"),"BACK","")

would i use the CLEAR trigger like this ?

=IF(t5>0,"CLEAR",AND(AA5=3,$S$1<=10,$T$1=0,$F$2<>"Suspended"),"BACK",""))

Thanks

That's right. Your trigger will insert CLEAR if there is a bet ref. Once it is cleared then it's effectively the same as the trigger from the example.

It's best to try it and see what happens, but I would only use small stakes. Your example will just keep placing bets continuously. I presume you are aware of this.

A quick and dirty way would be to only bet when s1 equally divides by 5. =MOD(S1,5) will return 0 when it divides equally so the formula could read as follows.

Code: Select all
=IF(t5>0,"CLEAR",AND(AA5=3,$S$1<=10,MOD($S$1,5)=0,$T$1=0,$F$2<>"Suspended"),"BACK",""))

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.
