Hello!
Please see my comments below:
For example, to drip feed in an amount to profit say $500 proportional to the price each time until say $3,000 is matched.
A trigger can post portions of bets each time the price is right, e.g. back $100 at 4.0 -- the price dropped to 3.9 -- wait till it is 4.1 or higher again -- another back $100 at 4.1 and so on. This way it will take longer than, say, matching it all in one go at worse prices, but you will be able to secure the price you need.
Bet on Australian win gallops markets only
It is possible as long as BetFair includes some indication of the racing being "gallops" in its name. Unfortunately, the exchange does not provide this information in the API, so we do not have any data to rely on except the name, i.e. "Hrd" for "hurdles", "Mdn" for "Maiden" etc.
Load runners (I assume manually), from several selection strategies and the ability to track results separately or at the least, mark the matched bets emanating from the individual selection strategies (so I can later export into Excel and sort from there)
Are these strategies involve some kind of a staking plan whereby each next stake is calculated based on the previous one? If so, you can't mix up these strategies, as they may derive the previous results from the bets placed by the other strategy.
If this is something more similar to "back on favourites" and "lay on third favourites", then that's fine.
- Trigger at a certain time before jump
- Minimum and maximum price stipulations for each selection
Yes, that's quite possible to do with a trigger.
