Miro, all bfexplorer bots manage bet IDs to track only bet/s placed by the bot.

Your custom bot is developed as bot trigger, and bot trigger just orchestrates action bots, so if your bot trigger is programmed to manage bot/s bet position then it is able to do so, but that is not a general solution which could be done only when betfair would implement mentioned bet tagging, customerRef persistence through all relevant betfair api methods.

If you want to extend your custom bot trigger then all action bots derived from SelectionBot expose the property: BotBetsCache

So utilizing this BotBetsCache for all market, or selection bots, you would be able to calculate bet positions opened by individual bots.

ok. Not a few systems.

And what about only one?

Means all bets calculated RELATIVE from the time when bot started. Like a checkpoint.

--------

it's only suggestion...

Sorry, I see:

"...if you place a bet and (for whatever reason) you do not receive a response, then there is no way to tell if the bet has been accepted by Betfair."

------

I thought about manage bets by BetID.
Place a bet take ID and after this move to intend Odds.

Ok.
Not Bot Executor...

But something like "pool of bets" placed by specific bots?

For example:
POOL1: calculate ALL BETS PLACED BY PLACEBETBOT01 bot
POOL2: calculate ALL BETS PLACED BY PLACEBETBOT01, PLACEBETBOT02, PLACEBETBOT03  bots

Betfair api does not offer feature allowing to tag bets:

Bot Executor as the name suggests, just executes bots, bets and bet position is managed by bots.

There is problem with gap detection, for now bot triggers action bot execution even if a gap is 1 tick only. In the code line:

if selection.GetOfferedPriceDifference() >= 2

the correct gap detection should be:

if selection.GetOfferedPriceDifference() > 2

Why is not working as I need?

Because input parameters changing by market. I need to use the same input parameters for ALL BOTS IN CHAIN (or CONCURRENTLY) running bots.

-----------------------
Use Ladder:
When I used "Use Ladder" option to run bot or strategy the first bot use parameters from a Ladder, others not.

-----------------------

I think that small improvement with using all (selected) parameters for all "encapsulated" bots will be useful

How often should change BF chart?

It changes but I don't know when. It would be nice to see the newest...

chaining is not working (as I need).

Solution described here is better - Base Bet Settings to Automate Trader’s Activity 

Yes, I understand.

-----------------------------------
My small improvement calls - MoreStakes: 7,15,32,7

There is no discrepancy with "drip feeding bot". I need different size of bet stake. Thats all.
I am trying Chaining more Place bet bots, with different Stakes.

Do you actually understand what I said?

"Drip feeding bot" is already offered in bfexplorer, and I described how you can set it up.

What you propose to add is option to feed different size of bet stake, and I really cannot see any advantage in such bot feature, all the rest of features and “advantages” is already available in "Drip feeding bot" you can easy setup by using “Repeat Until” bot.

“Repeat Until” bot is not bad.

-----------------------
Divided bets on volatility markets can be more better than one bet. Often price jumps 5-6 ticks up/down and 2nd-3rd bet at exact Odds from this bot can be matched at better price...
If not, nevermind. I see only opportunity.

Mainly I see the big advantage in In-play markets too (tennis, horse racing ... especially)

----------------------

Miro, there is no complicated chaining of bots. All you need is to set Place Bet bot, and then use “Repeat Until” bot to instruct the bot how you want to repeat Place Bet bot action.

Of course we all know what "drip feeding bot" main feature is, but I cannot see any advantage of your bot, there is no advantage in placing different stakes, so what bfexplorer already offers is efficient method to place big stake on a market.

“Repeat Until” bot offers 3 parameters you can use to set iteration type and timeout.

Advantage:

1) the only one bot; not complicated chaining

2) possibility to set many different stakes; placed in the virtual queue

3) speculative bets; if a first small bets matched I can take better price with next bets
I do not have to affect WOM but my stakes are on the market

etc.

maybe for me: possibility to set all stakes in CSV file (with update a bot strategy)

Thank you very much.

--------------------------
My expression in English is not good. If you have any questions, please email me.

I hope I will find some spare time in following days, will let you know when it is ready.

What is an advantage for this kind of bot? Drip feeding bot can be constructed by using “Place Bet” bot and “Repeat Until” bot.

Read and watch: Base Bet Settings to Automate Trader’s Activity

"Execute Till Target Profit" bot or "Execute Trigger Bot" are not stopped / canceled by "Close Market Bet Position" bot.

In your case the only option is to use "Execute Trigger Bot" custom trigger.

Can you help me with "Close Market Bet Position bot"?

Situation:

I have some trading bots on some Selections and if Close Market Bet Position bot close at profit or loss I want to rerun whole strategy once again.

How can I do it automatically? Close Market Bet Position bot stoped all bots...

Your problem is the connection latency to betfair servers. Yes, you can improve connection latency by using VPS which is located closer to betfair servers than your home connection to betfair servers.

On the other hand if you use VPS for manual trading you will get actually worse results, just think about it. You will get better results only when using automated betting solution with triggers/bots or automated trading solutions.
