Odds Difference Between 1st and 2nd Fav Automation Bot

[Dallas]

The way i set it up was the original bot backs the fav after being 2 odds shorter than the 2nd fav for 5 consecutive secs, then added to this it would lay the 2nd fav at the same time (or as soon as its WOM is > 60% afterwards) as you never gave any seperate instrutions for the 2nd fav exacpt for the WOM cond.

For the 3rd fav i used 3 fixed odds cond one that the fav was <2.2 the other that 3rd fav was >5.2 (meaning at least 3 odds) also another fixed odds cond that 3rd fav was <10.0 and also its WOM >60%

So basically there has to be 2 or more odds between fav and 2nd fav and 3 odds between fav and 3rd fav for it to trigger (2.2 - 5.22, with a max of 10.0 on 2nd fav).

It can be made to use a completly seperate timer for the 3rd fav but would also require a few more mods as the original fav/2nd fav etc could of completly changed and the same runner that was fav and 2 odds shorter than 2nd fav for 5 secs could different to the one thats 3 odds shorter than 3rd fav for 5 secs with its additional conditions?

also regarding time, i understand i can delay the time it starts with in the inplay time but is there any way it can trigger only in the last quarter of a race? i suspect not, but worth an ask,

It can't know when a point in the race is reached you would need to appliy different times depending on the race lengh and for this you would need the average time for that distance and work out how long it would take to cover 75% then arm the bot at that time.

Hi there, just a quick little snippet that may help. I tackled this issue of distance in a generic way quite a while ago. You can find an example of a rule that uses distance as the trigger by navigating here and looking for the attachment in one of my replies: viewtopic.php?f=37&t=12581&p=106456&hil ... ag#p106456

You will of course need to modify the distances for your 75% mark as i think I only did it for 25%, 50% and 90% of the distances. Easy enough to figure out and add for a fully generic solution.

Hi Jim is this the file, B2L with distance flags v1.0.baf? thanks

[Willygubbins]

also on a side note, if i have multiple instances of betangel open, can i run 2 different bots on the same race, one from each instance? or will this not function correctly? clearly anything that involves greening up could be problamatic.

sorry, yes, that's the one. just edit the file to match your 75% mark on each distance. a little time-consuming, but a one off that you can use in lots of other rules.

cheers Jim, looks good is there an easy to cut and paste rules between bots?

You can run multiple bots from each instance of BA you have open but as you have rightly pointed out you need to be aware of any possible conflictions

willy, i created a little utility to allow you to do this. point your browser at this dropbox link to download: https://www.dropbox.com/s/dmof6wygyo3yj ... s.exe?dl=0

I created a small thread that shows the look and feel of the utility here: viewtopic.php?f=37&t=12022

let me know if any issues

Bravo Jim!

clearly there is a little adjusting to do to link the signals to the bets

as long as you have the condition set on the bets regards percentagecomplete, then that is all that is required. thereafter, a single bet action is covered by the appropriate trigger on the distance flags - i.e.

why is the value there shown as 49 but it is 50 in the signals?

hi willie - it's shown as 49 in the settings as we want the value to be BETWEEN 50 and 90. If we made it greater than 50, then nothing would happen until the value changed to 90. We start off with a default setting of 0 (ZERO) and then set it to 50, at the 50% mark, therefore, we need to check for it being greater than one digit below the value (as we don't have a greater than or equal to operator).

A good and valid question, hope this clarifies...

[Willygubbins]

Hi Jim, I know we have touched on this before, but i am trying to set a rule that greens all up when it is £10 or greater profit or £10 in the red, but has failed to trigger on every race even though those parameters have been met.
