Hello, I'd be really grateful if anyone could help me out- my problem is this:
I'm putting back orders into horse racing markets automatically and then moving on to the next market before they are matched- essentially in the hope that they will be matched later.
I'd like to automate the whole process so I've made myself a spreadsheet that calculates stakes and odds and submits the orders. So far It's all going swimmingly except that when the spreadsheet ticks over onto the next market (at a specified time via the B.A Auto Select Market feature) the "bet ref" column shows "CANCELLED" in the rows which had a bet reference in them in the previous market. None of my bets are cancelled- but the problem is that the next set of bets in the rows that now have "CANCELLED" in the Bet Ref column don't place when their turn comes arround.
If I manually clear the Bet Ref cells then the new bets place just fine- but what I'd really like is to automate this (or solve the problem some other way) so that I can go and feed the ducks whilst B.A does the work for me.
I'm sure othes who are smarter than I am have allready encountered and solved this problem- and if you wouldn't mind sharing I'd be eternally grateful.
Many thanks in advance,
Spike
