This is a basic Guardian automation rule for use any and all types of markets
The purpose of the bot is to record your Profit/loss after each market once Betfair closes and settles the market, it will then keep a running total of your profit/loss throughout the day and write those to you Bet Angel log after each market closes
Here is an example of how it would look in your log after each race, there is a stored value for the profit/loss from that market, and below that a stored value with the total profit and loss for all todays markets so far
01/04/2022 13:30:04: [G_Auto 1] : Store Value (Shared) for Ami Desbois: Market_Profit = 15.78
01/04/2022 13:30:04: [G_Auto 1] : Store Value (Shared) for Bet Angel: Total_Profit = 15.78 + -6.53 = 9.25
I've created this as a bare template so it only goes as far as recording those values, its then up to you how you want to use those values.
For example if you just wanted to see what your daily total was so far you could just check on them in your log as shown above or you could display them on your One-Click, Ladder, Guardian trading screens etc (i'll be adding some ladder and one-click settings files to do this over the weekend)
Or you can use them as part of your parameters and/or conditions of other rules
NB; to use this settings profile you will need to be using the new Bet Angel v1.59 which can be downloaded from the following page which also contains full details of all new options and features which have been added

How it works and using the Rules File
Once you have it imported into your Guardian you can edit those (or any other parts of the file) anyway you want or remove them and add your own rules to use the recent form very easily by clicking on "Edit Rules File".
Please refer to the 'Note' tab for a more detailed explanation on how each rule works and how it may be connected/linked to other rules within the file
Downloading and Importing the Files
To use the file just click on the 'Running Profit and Loss Total.baf' link below and that will download it to your computer, then with guardian open on the "Automation" tab click on a rules file as shown in the image, once imported it will now appear in the pick list area just above, you can now apply it to any markets you have added into guardian.

Running Daily Profit & Loss Total - Guardian Automation Bot
Excellent Dallas - cheers for this. I started playing around with this myself a few days ago, looking at using P&L to compound automatically on a given strat. But this saves me having to finish it. I'll just nick yours ![Very Happy :D](./images/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif)
And I completely missed the new SV is Not Set Condition previously - that was the problem I was trying to get around. Makes life much easier

This is excellent Dallas
Little compounding test laying the dogs.
Row 1 - P&L
Row 2 - Virtual bank
Row 3 - Stake @ 1% of virtual bank
Needs tidying and some row title text but works a treat. Bank is off to profit as I made some £'s before creating the bank SV

Looking good, nice thinking about creating a virtual balance to use
I think I know the negative answer to this one Dallas, but thought I'd ask...Dallas wrote: ↑Tue Apr 05, 2022 4:28 pmsniffer66 wrote: ↑Tue Apr 05, 2022 4:25 pmThis is excellent Dallas

I've set up 2 horse strats with the same virtual bank, % of bank as stake etc and all working well. However, when both strats are on the same race then obviously the final P&L is a combination of both results , and both banks are updated with that figure, skewing the result.
Can you think of a way I can calc the result so I can apportion the right amount to each strats P&L ? Just to complicate things, one was an L2B and the other was a B2L - both greening in profit on its selection before the race ended. So had the same green result on every runner.
Are you running two instances of BA each from its own installation directory?sniffer66 wrote: ↑Thu Apr 07, 2022 9:08 amI think I know the negative answer to this one Dallas, but thought I'd ask...Dallas wrote: ↑Tue Apr 05, 2022 4:28 pmsniffer66 wrote: ↑Tue Apr 05, 2022 4:25 pmThis is excellent Dallas

No, but I dont think that will solve it either, as the market P&L data comes from BF ? I can place a trade with completely different software and that still shows up in the BA results.
The only option I can think of is to try and calc the amount won from within the baf, knowing entries\exits\amounts but think that's too complex to achieve.

Ahh ok, because you'd created a 'virtual' bank above I assumed you were using PM and just testingsniffer66 wrote: ↑Thu Apr 07, 2022 1:17 pmNo, but I dont think that will solve it either, as the market P&L data comes from BF ?

It will be tricky to set up to sperate the two strategies, but if one is always going to be greened up before the other and you know roughly by what point, ie the B2L is always greened with in the first 0-30% of a race and the L2B in the second half sometime then it could be done
It would also depend if they both run together on several markets a day or if its just the odd one?
Hi Dallas. I might just combine the two strats results and use a % as stake - far easier lol
On another note, I'm seeing intermittent occasions when the winner\loser status isnt returned, so the P&L is never calculated. My educated guess is BF havent returned that data when the "Winner" rule detects the Closed market, only running the once.
I've made a change to run that rule unlimited times, every 15s, until "result" is set with a value - tests well and think that should solve the above issue.

Cheers for the heads up, I hadn't noticed any issues with it getting the winner status so far but makes sense to trigger it a few times just to be sure so think I'll adjust mine now while its fresh in my headsniffer66 wrote: ↑Fri Apr 08, 2022 10:53 amHi Dallas.

Hi Dallas
Please ignore my stupidness but cant quite workout how or where I find the running profit / loss by using the imported file (Running profit and loss total) . I can see the logs, matched bets and profit and loss files, but when I open them up cannot find where the running total is ? I'm guessing I haven't set it up correctly. Where am i going wrong.? Do I Put the Profit Loss import file in the automation 1 circled in the photo? But that then takes over from the automation file I have there? I'm obviously missing something simple?
Thanks
