Hi Stefan,
I'm automating bet placement from my own app and I need to place a Back bet with a dynamic MinimumOdds (a per-bet floor price computed externally), so the exchange never matches below my floor.

You are a candidate for the Nobel Prize!
This is the most interesting development of a private trader ever.
Congratulations!
I am a big fan of you.
(Are you the guy who moved from Germany to London years ago and employing your own developer?)
A question:
You have earned a lot of money with Betfair for years, successful, quiet and unobtrusive.
Why do you publish your latest development?
Do you suddenly have commercial intentions?
Scalpy will be able to pull so much money from the inplay markets that the whole betfair system is affected...

Good review!
Betfair Bot
Football Bot triggers your action bot you define in the parameter BotName. The action bot is responsible for placing a bet or starting a trading session on preset selection.
All bots which place a bet offers the parameter: ExecuteOnSelection, therefore if you want to declare the exact selection on which you want to place a bet you must set this parameter. Home team selection index is 1, the away team selection index is 2.
If your strategy for Football bot is to place a bet on home team when a goal is scored, so for instance scores: 1 - 0;2 – 0 and so on, then consequently your action bot ExecuteOnSelection must be set to 1.
Have a look at on some other articles describing how to execute some bot strategies on football matches:

The biggest problem is the distinct range of competence in communication throughout the community members.

Its like any software just spend a bit of time getting used to it and especially when configuring your interface as this will be a use time saver if done properly
shokkem14
Did you find a program to do wjat you wanted as this could be incredibly useful to all.
Cheers

Hi,
Have a simple question on this. What do I need to do to apply the settings for "use market/order streaming" . My tick box in settings is " greyed out " so the check box can not be turnd on.
Thanks.

Hi Stefan,
So I successfully got ths working and it looks good, thanks for your support. Is there a way to auto refresh the charts on a user defined interval or is it a browser (Chrome) limitation where I have to refresh the browser page manually to refresh the chart image?
I also would like to have the "record market selection data" on multiple markets at once but have only managed to apply it to the main market opened in Bet Event Trader window. If I use the execute in order /bots executor on multiple markets in the event browser the bot does not seem to trigger unless I load it into the main bet event trade and execute the bot manually.
Probably something I have overlooked. Hope you can help.
Thanks.

Hi Stefan,
This bot called "save market prices" looks very similar to the "save in play market prices". Are they both available somewhere now the new release is available?
Thanks,
Archie
Hi Stefan,
I have installed the latest release and wondered where I can find the "save in-play market prices" bot shown in this video?
Thanks

Thanks! Could you point me in some direction to set up the code in the software? I played with it (the software) some time ago, but definately I will need a refresh. I am not a code expert what so ever, but I unterstand a little and also I see great potencial in the code you have created. Is there anything in particular you think I will find useful to read or watch?

This bot code shows how to retrieve betfair SP prices. When market is turned at in play, so in code, the line 72, you can add what you want to.

Hi Stefan, Thanks for your time.
However I could not find anything related to if "Betfair Starting prices" are "x" then... the close one was LTP, but is not the same.

A key challenge for traders is finding relevant form & historical data on their chosen sport/racing that will allow them to develop a strategy to give them the edge. Data visualisation can help a user to quickly gain insights to identify such data. The SandDance tool looks useful for this purpose.

i thought it was a good trigger to test if it works..which big project you will start ?
