Bfexplorer for Horse Racing
Bot Executor
The extensive support of bot scripts in the Bfexplorer makes it possible to use already built-in bots but as well bot scripts you can develop or have developed by someone else. All such bot scripts use set of parameters which define the bot behavior, so they can be configured and then used in different scenarios.
The Bot Executor enables to add any bot criteria using the Bot Criteria Editor by clicking on the Add a new bot criteria toolbar button, editing the bot criteria or delete the select bot criteria. All or selected bot criteria can be exported into the file or imported from the file enables you to share your bot criteria settings with your friends. It is also the way how I distribute the bet criteria settings if you are not able to set it yourself, just send me what you want to do and I will send you the bot criteria settings you can import and use later.
To execute any bot criteria, first select the market and the selection on which you want to run your bot criteria, then select the bot criteria in the bot executor window and click on the toolbar button Start the bot. For some bot criteria settings where the selection is done automatically by bot script you do not need to select your selection, just run the bot on any market selection.
Bot Executor - Bot Criteria Editor
The bot criteria settings is divided into three groups the bot setup, the market criteria and the selection criteria. The Bot Criteria Editor enables you to setup any settings for any bot script you have got in the Bfexplorer.
First you name your bot criteria settings, so you can ease find it in the Bot Executor when you want to use it later. Select the bot type you want to use and configure bot parameters. In this case I used the Dutch runners bot so parameters are following:
- BetTyp - Back as I want to back dutching
- PlaceBetOnProbableWinner - True as I want to dutch three favorites
- PlaceBetOnRunners - 3 as I want to dutch three runners
- Stake - 100 as I want to stake 100 in total to dutch
If you want to know more about bot setting have a look at here.
In the following step you can set the market criteria if needed. In this case I want to dutch three favorites only when back book value is less or equal to 103. To add a new market criteria first you set its parameters setting the market type criteria, the operand and value, then clicking on the toolbar button Add a new criteria. To delete the selected criteria click on the toolbar button Delete the criteria.
I also want to evaluate the second parameter in this bot criteria settings, to dutch only when the favorite best offered odds are greater or equal to 3.00 there is need to sort market's selections so the bot could select the favorite by last price matched.
To add a selection criteria set the selection criteria type for select bet type, the operand and value, and for which selection you want to apply this criteria. When adding more selection criteria all evaluated criteria must be true.
