Hi

Apologies if I'm overlooking something, I've been going through the user guide

I've seen that on the import selections for trading you can set a timer to reload a list from a text file and also that you can 'open market list' from a txt file of markets (by market_id)

Is there a way to make importing markets happen on a timer or something that has a similar function?

My use case is following a tipster, which could be involving greyhounds, horses, and football markets, and they can be delivered at different times of the day

Rather than adding all of the possible markets upfront, I was wondering if I could just get them into a text file where it would load those market and also load any new ones that I could add to a list like during the day

Thanks, Gary

Hi
Set up a market locator template with the condition: markets name contains values in file. Save the template
Text file should be in the format shown in screenshot

Then use the Scheduler (Settings / monitoring options) to run that search at timed intervals

You can update the text file throughout the day and new markets will be added at the next scheduled run

sorry in that example, would that load all sub-markets within "Germany vs Paraguay" so match odds, correct score etc.
