  • Hi,

    Is it possible to write a trigger to remember what bets were placed ?
    and if the bets won or lost ?
    Thanks

  • Hi,

    Seemingly it is not possible to track a bet by its id, so I think the answer to "if it won or not" is no.

  • Hi
    The Betfair statement provides individual bet win/lose data which is downloadable to Excel.
    Settings > General Options > Account Statement > Retrieve data <date range or day range>
    Settings > Excel > Export Account Statement to this sheet

    Now you have the data you can analyse it in Excel or write trigger conditions using Excel-bound variables.

    Another option is to record a finite number of bets in user variables and compare them to the previous event's winner index. I believe mcbee has done work on this. Search forum for: pw_1_sel_index

  • It is be possible! For each trigger you record the odds in a variable (or the betamount)! Then you use the variable to check in the history. I suppose it is easier to controll the bet amount becouse you can add a decimal, that is unic for each trigger (then you know by looking at hist_X_backa what trigger who made the bet)

    check the history:

    profit/loss is checked by:  hist_X_pl

    odds is checked with:  hist_X_backp

    amount is checked with:  hist_X_backa

    Don't start with 15 trigger start with 3 to try the consepts or maybe 2  :)

  • Hi Mark
    Thank for your search link for mcbee's posts. I will have a look this coming week.
    Haven't seen you on here in a while, I didn't realise it took so long to count your end of year's profits. :)

  • Hi tupp,
    Thanks for your suggestion, I plan to look at this next week. There must be a way of recording bets and dividends of past races.
    Cheers

  • Racepro -  I am using the variable hist_X_time to keep track of record-times, I suppose it could be useful for you.
