Correct ime before off Trigger.

Postby siony1974 » Fri Aug 15, 2014 8:22 pm

My excel sheet is looking for the Fav in the place market so it tracks the Fav using a RANK function. Seems to work okay and the text "BACK" appears in a column on the sheet next to the horse with the lowest price and therefore rank . Formulas on the sheet sort out the stake etc.

How do I set it so say 10 seconds before the official off it triggers a back bet on whichever horse is ranked 1 at that point. I can see the clock in the top left corner, I'm a little unsure how to to make use of it to trigger the bet. Once it hits the 10 second mark I want it to make use of the clock and set the sheet so at that point is copies the "BACK" text into the trigger column and puts the bet on.

Any and all help would be much appreciated.

P.S Any way to make specific races go into specific worksheets not just All UK Win Markets or all UK PLace Markets going to one sheet.

The following Excel formula can be used to provide a countdown to the official off in seconds

Code: Select all
=IF(LEFT(D2)<>"-",(HOUR(D2)*3600)+(MINUTE(D2)*60)+SECOND(D2),-((HOUR(SUBSTITUTE(D2,"-",""))*3600)+(MINUTE(SUBSTITUTE(D2,"-",""))*60)+SECOND(SUBSTITUTE(D2,"-",""))))


You can then use something similar to

Code: Select all
=if(AND(cond1=true, cond2=true,cond3=true),"BACK","")


cond1 checks no existing bets have been placed
cond2 checks time to off <=10
cond3+ is anything else you want to include

Sports betting software from Gruss Software


The strength of Gruss Software is that it’s been designed by one of you, a frustrated sports punter, and then developed by listening to dozens of like-minded enthusiasts.

Gruss is owned and run by brothers Gary and Mark Russell. Gary discovered Betfair in 2004 and soon realised that using bespoke software to place bets was much more efficient than merely placing them through the website.

Gary built his own software and then enhanced its features after trialling it through other Betfair users and reacting to their improvement ideas, something that still happens today.

He started making a small monthly charge so he could work on it full-time and then recruited Mark to help develop the products and Gruss Software was born.

We think it’s the best of its kind and so do a lot of our customers. But you can never stand still in this game and we’ll continue to improve the software if any more great ideas emerge.
