Can't seem to get dutching to work
« on: 14 Dec 2013, 15:20 »
I watched the video on the marketfeeder site and it said that to dutch the back book must become 99.95 or lower, or lay book becomes 100.05% or bigger.

I found a market which met this criteria
5537.4%   back book
1063.4% lay book

I put these settings in for auto-dutching

On the video it shows it starting to dutch but on mine i see nothing.  ???

Hi
That video was shot in 2007 and was before Betfair introduced their cross-matching bot. Today you will not find the book% like shown in the video. Back book will always be above 100% and lay book will always be below 100%.

Have a look at this topic for some information about book %:
http://community.welldonesoft.com/triggered-betting-10/how-to-lay-to-a-book-percentage-of-over-200-in-the-place-market
and also try a google search for "betfair book percentage" to help you understand a bit better how it works.

I think you are using the Lite version, so you do not have triggers.
To try the AutoDutch feature use a 1 place win market and select less runners than in the market. Use the setting: First x selections. e.g. Correct Score 1st 12 selections, or Horse race 1st 4 selections etc.

Edit: see attached screenshot for example
Please read the following disclaimer with regards to the information you may request and obtain on our forum. This specifically concerns trigger files and various instructions as to how to implement a strategy.

 

Please note, BetFair is seems to be currently OFFLINE
