Despite what you said I successfully added a different day's races to each of three tabs, but on the fourth tab I get "Only historic evens from the same date can be included in the same application instance..." message

Can you tell me which events exactly including the ones rejected on the fourth tab?

Cannot add historical markets while timeline is active


Anyone else encounter this message?

This is intentional. The timeline is considered active until you click the red stop button. You can then add more markets.

All UK & Eire racing win markets for 7th, 8th and 9th Feb loaded successfully.

10th Feb gives the message I quoted, which is a shame because first tests looked to be working well.

[quote="GaryRussell"][quote="spliffcity"]Hi Gary,

Still seeing different results depending on playback speed.

Example:

8th Feb - Market Rasen - 16.30 - Rosearelli

3 Excel trigger bets:

LAY-TL12-SLF2.64-L-SLC1 4.70 1.35
LAY-TL12-SLF2.64-L-SLC1 3.75 5.45
LAY-TL12-SLF2.64-L-SLC1 3.15 13.95

Stop loss fires and produces different results dependent on speed.

The results are also different (worse) than the actual race, but I'd assume that's cross matching?

Let me know what else you need?[/quote]
Were all bets triggered before the lay bet was matched or were any matched immediately? ie. Can I just trigger them at the start of the race to replicate what you did?

It's not possible to get the same results as the actual race. Yes cross matching is one factor. Also the bets are not affecting the market as they would in a live market. Also some prices would be different because they are sampled at a different time.[/quote]


Hi Gary,

Did you manage to recreate the issue?

Thanks. This will be fixed in the next update. It will still let you add 7th and 8th though to allow for meetings that span midnight.

Yes. I am working on the solution now.

The chase stop loss delay is not taking into account playback speed and also it needs synchronising as I did for tick offset. I am working on a fix at the moment.

Any reason there are no historical UK horse racing markets for March 1st?

Thanks Gary.

Also only one meeting (Lingfield) on 04/03/22 for British horse racing. There should be four.

Is it just me, but when I tick 'Race Status' from the Additional columns box, I can see the heading in my Z4 cell of 'Race Status', but underneath there is no sign of the status?

The Result tick box within Additional columns works fine.

The data simply isn't available from Betfair yet. Usually all data is available from 6 days ago, anything newer cannot be guaranteed.

Is it blank for live markets or historical markets? It's not included in historical data so isn't available.

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.
