I like it..... it'll make me think about what I actually do so I can subcontract it out.

It's the whole world of possibilities that's making my head spin.

Don't worry, there will be plenty of examples uploaded to the forum to get people started.

Customers in the 'Trading is about to change' thread were worried that any edge wouldn't stay an edge for long once everyone had access to it. Hopefully you can now see how this release is different, this is all about providing a slick mechanism to deploy your strategies - to give you time to think and assess the markets while the Servant busily follows your instructions.

We've been testing Servants for weeks now and they dramatically change the way you trade, it's much less tiring to deploy and monitor Servants than it is to frantically click about the ladder!

I like the concept. Will take some time to get into it but i sense some good opportunities/possibilities already. everything is hard before it's easy. thanks

If your edge was assessing fairly common key things and reacting quickly you'll struggle to maintain it vs even more automation.

Looks like the arms race has well and truely started, maybe it's time to rent an office a few ms closer to BFHQ.

That happened once during testing, but we couldn't recreate it again. Try right mouse clicking on the Servant Manager bell boy icon - hopefully when the context menu appears, the tooltip will go.

It's actually an ENHANCEMENT for manual traders and not as complicated as automation. It's a halfway house, that's the whole concept.

I think its a v interesting development.

Am worried, the sheer possibilities, might endanger data charges raising its head. Am a little surprised, Betfair are happy with this. Badly coded Servants, could send a LOT of bets. maybe that will be the trick .. waiting and watching etc, and then actually sending a bet.

Am gonna need to understand offset greening fully - but, we all need to understand the tools we use.

Thx

Where abouts are the servant downloads, the spread entry/exit looks interesting.
