Triggered betting / Re: Problem with timing of calculations

« Last post by djmotion on 20 Oct 2024, 22:37 »

Hey I've set it up using the following condition in the betting trigger so that it should test if the previous event is settled and if it has been 1 minute since the last suspension. This should hopeful counter it placing bets at the wrong time. Do you think it will work?

Trigger placing bets number of runs in the market is less than max_bet
OR
Previous triggered event status is settled
and previous triggered event minutes since last suspension is equal or greater than 1

Triggered betting / Re: Problem with timing of calculations

Ideally I don't want to get matched at SP but sometimes the price moves before the bet is matched so if I'm on Betfair then I want to replicate manually moving the price so say I place a bet at 1.50 and the price moves to 1.52 then on Betfair I would move the price to 1.52 and click on the tick. How would I replicate this using a trigger? And with the times, some events seem to start anything between 1 and 12 hours than they are scheduled on the software. This happens especially with Tennis matches. Do you know why this happens? Like I had a tennis event that placed a bet and was scheduled to start but when I check Betfair it said starts in 57 mins

Hi
This trigger will automate following a price up or down.

There is no time limit in a tennis match so scheduled start times are very frequently overrun, sometimes by many hours. There is no way round this really unless you have some external data estimating when the current match on a given court is nearing the end. Betfair only provide the scheduled start time in the API feed.

Hi
Yes a timer would be a good idea though suspension could be open to error if for example a market is suspended for any other reason than the end e.g photo finish, loss of score feed at Betfair etc.

A better timer would be to record current time in after a win and after a loss triggers and use an elapsed timer in the betting trigger.

Try the attached in test mode. Set the time delay in seconds in the constant.

Would adding a condition to the bet "Previous Triggered Event minutes since last suspension > 1" work? Since the event suspends at the end so after suspension, no bets should be placed for at least one minute which will give the triggers time to make their calculations before a bet is placed on the next event.

I've tried unticking overall but isn't working. The system places bets on all events when overall is unticked.

Hi
I think its this condition:
Trigger Place a Lay Bet number of runs in the market is less than max_bet overall

Overall is cumulative number of runs for all markets since start of program.

Firstly try it with overall unticked.

Or try this:
Lay ... Price: lay_price ... Amount: rec_amount + (lss_count*trg_pft) + trg_pft Take SP
First Matching Selection
Once Per Market
All Except Settled
Markets minutes before the off is between 0 and 5
and selections lay price is equal or less than max_price
and Trigger Place a Lay Bet number of runs in the market is less than max_bet
AND
   previous triggered event status is settled
   or Trigger Place a Lay Bet number of runs in the market is equal to 0 overall

Setting Variables (this sets the variables manually in case there was an error and I had to restart the program)

set user variable
Name: rec_amount (amount of money to recover) Value: rec1 Globally
set user variable
Name: lss_count (number of losses so far) Value: rec2 Globally

One Time Only (No Conditions)

After a win

set user variable
Name: rec_amount Value: 0 Globally
set user variable
Name: lss_count value: 0 Globally
Once per market
Settled
Markets Settled P/L > 0

After a Loss

Set user variable
Name: rec_amount Value: rec_amount - market settled p/l Globally
set user variable
Name: lss_count Value: lss_count + 1 Globally
Once per market
Settled
Markets settled p/l < 0

Place a Lay bet

Lay ... Price: lay_price ... Amount: rec_amount + (lss_count*trg_pft) + trg_pft Take SP
First Matching Selection
Once Per Market
All Except Settled
Markets minutes before the off is between 0 and 5
and selections lay price is equal or less than max_price
AND Trigger Place a Lay Bet number of runs in the market is less than max_bet overall
or previous triggered event status is settled
