I've subscribed for a month in order to try out MF Pro, specifically Time Machine. I have to say I'm finding it incredibly frustrating. I'm aiming to create the most basic trigger. My real goal is to generate data to be analysed later in excel. I want to do this by copying the statement to an excel spreadsheet.
My interest is in Greyhounds and I've bought a months worth of data which is thousands of races.
My plan is to lay all the first favourites in all the races and save the data. Then lay all the second favourites, then the third, etc, until I have data for all 6 dogs in every race.
I am primarily interested in To Be Placed markets.
My first problem is in selecting the Place markets - is there a quicker way to do this than selecting individually thousands of races?
My real frustration is the use of triggers. As all the examples seem quite complex I've opted to create my own - a simple "Lay The Favourite". See attached.
I've created my own constant for the bet value as when it was the default lay bet value it was always laying a value of 4 - even when I changed the Default Lay amount to 10 on the panel. 10 is a much handier value for analysing the results later.
For a short test I've created a "My Markets" list of To Be Placed events and restored all the settings to default.
When I run Time Machine with these criteria no bets are placed at all. I have added no conditions. The Triggers icon is green. In the course of my experiments I have the occasional bet placed but I can't seem to do it with any logic or consistency.
Has anyone got any tips or pointers? I've read the manual back to front, checked all the settings, watched the videos but I'm at a loss.
