Ye that's fair enough. Have you got automation running to store the data for every Greyhound market each day?

Allows you to build your own VBA/Macros to analyse the data before placing trades.
I suspect a good approach could be to wait to see a dog with at least £1,000 matched between odds of say 2 and 4 with a two tick gap between the current back/lay price and then fill it. It could be that in a REAL mode market both would get matched securing a quick profit and then repeat down to 40 seconds or so before the scheduled start time. Don't think it would work in a TEST mode environment for obvious reasons.

Ye it's not the worst method. Trouble is a lot of other people will be trying to make market as well.BetScalper wrote: ↑Thu Jul 13, 2017 8:15 pmAllows you to build your own VBA/Macros to analyse the data before placing trades.

potentially, offer out beyond the gap; offset inside the margin... just a thought.deansaccount wrote: ↑Thu Jul 13, 2017 8:55 pmYe it's not the worst method.

Wouldn't that mean you would need a rough idea of which way the odds are going ?jimibt wrote: ↑Thu Jul 13, 2017 9:00 pmpotentially, offer out beyond the gap; offset inside the margin... just a thought.deansaccount wrote: ↑Thu Jul 13, 2017 8:55 pmYe it's not the worst method.

tbh - from my (limited) experience, the best returns have come from initial bets placed outside the spread with offsets contained inside the spread. as i said, LIMITED!!BetScalper wrote: ↑Thu Jul 13, 2017 9:07 pmWouldn't that mean you would need a rough idea of which way the odds are going ?jimibt wrote: ↑Thu Jul 13, 2017 9:00 pmpotentially, offer out beyond the gap; offset inside the margin... just a thought.deansaccount wrote: ↑Thu Jul 13, 2017 8:55 pm
