Troubleshooting / Re: Adding markets to monitor from a text file at multiple points during the day

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

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

Troubleshooting / Adding markets to monitor from a text file at multiple points during the day

« Last post by Gary on 28 Jun 2026, 23:13 »

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

Triggered betting / Improvements to the Excel add-in

« Last post by davidgilbertson on 25 Jun 2026, 06:02 »

I would like to see a couple of improvements to the Excel add-in. 

If you try to lay from Excel some, but not all, of the runners in the race, the trigger will not execute at all. An interim solution that I use is to have a placeholder bet on the runners that I don't actually want to bet on. So they get bets at $1.02 on 0.01% of the bankroll, with the bets cancelled at in-play. Those bets never get on.

It would be better to be able to lay on only some, but not all, of the runners in a race.

The other improvement I would like to see is to add two columns to a spreadsheet, eg for both back and lay triggers. I have found that trying to add a second column doesn't work. The numbers get put all over the place.

Hi there
 
I have been a marketfeeder user since 2008 so nearly as long as you. In order to create a trigger and import your csv file, I need an example. As you know importing selections only allows for the selection name first followed by any variables separated by a tab and one selection per line. Is this how yours looks? Thankyou in advance

Regards Paul

Hi Daniel,

You've put a lot of effort into that, it looks like an incredibly useful service. 

In the skipped signals section you mention that you avoid placing a trade if the price has moved outside of your target band at 30 minutes before the off.  What is the bands range?
