Time off

Been busy with 1 thing and another, so have placed no trades since last Wednesday, but have been toying with excel to be used in bet angel, i have downloaded to the Betdaq version as its free, i am useless at excel!!
i am trying to write a trigger, but want it when it "runs" in-play, but dont really understand the IF,AND commands, i was told it should look like this

=IF(AND(F2="In-play"",F6<1.4),"BACK OFFSET:10 WITH_GREENING:TRUE","")

F2 Is the cell which shows when the event is in play, F6 is where the current back odds are.

anyone had any experience with excel programming>? and is willing to put me right?

Back a day early

Well i had intended to "return" on Thursday but actually came back today, traded on BF with re-newed vigor for a profit of £35.26, which i am happy with.

I am still deciding whether to trade on this evenings racing.

I asked about Bet angel in another thread on here, stating that i had found a website that gave Free trial for 7 days, which i applied for then waited for an email, well that came today thanking me for trialing thier software which i had not used hey ho guess i'll have to pay 1st then then decided but till then its BetTrader for me.

Cheers

Disaster today

well disaster struck today... i reduced my bank to my "safe" operating level of £100, i started trading on one race with 3 mins to the off placing a back bet at odds of 4.8 for £100, this was matched instantly and the lay placed at 1 tick lower at 4.7and matched so i now have £10 on this horse, with 2 mins to go, i place another back in at £100 matched and then set up the opposing lay hoping to be matched after about 1 minute i decide to scratch this trade and place the lay the same as the matched back betas it was tarding at these odds to my horror my Laptop has locked up, i press ctrl alt delete nothing, i have no back up pc, i cannot access the web either, so i get my tan number and ring betfair, the race is off and my selections odds are well above 4.8, i lay it anyway accepting the loss... my loss was £57 so the bank is down to £43.... so will need a top up from past profits.

needless to say this put me off the rest of the day, i spent the afternoon checking my laptop its just over a year old, ran all the checks, clearing out clutter and now it seems to be running smoothly, i wont be able to trade till thursday as i am away for a few days.

cheers for now

Thursday, football/racing

This evening i traded horses, making a loss of £3.55, i also traded on a dog at monmore making the hefty sum of £0.06p woohoo, i then moved onto the Football markets, making a couple of pounds on the over/under 1.5, 2.5 and 3.5 markets, i was watching this match on channel5, and Aab scored with about 8 minutes to go, i backed them to win as Man city didnt lool like scoring i had actually placed the lay bet when Aab were awarded a penalty which they scored, so once the market went inplay again i laid them for a profit of £29.05.

i was the looking around on the betfair site and noted that there was a south american game inplay, and was being shown live on betfair, they were 2-0 up after 25minutes, the odds to back were 1.20 now i dont know nothing about south american football, so i decided just to watch it, 2-0 soon became 3 and i had a look on betrader, market suspends so i sit at 1.04 with £150 not expecting it to be matched once it unsuspends, i place the bet and to my surpise its matched, with the odds then dropping to lay 1.01, i then decided to green up than take the £6 if ends in a win, so the profit is £4.46 as can be seen in the picture, was the easiet 4.46 i have ever made, wish i ahd asked for slightly higher odds now.

So total p/l today is £33.49

cheers.

Bet Angel

Even though i say in the heading "using fairbot, betrader and BET ANGEL" i am yet to use bet angel, but plan to in the near future i did find a site that gave a link for a weeks free trail, i sent my email, name ect but as yet i have had no offer of a trial.
What are peoples views on Bet Angel?

Todays play was greyhounds +£2.57 and horse racing +£24.08, in the horse markets i actually took a couple of losses too, redding up rather than risking it, again had i not done then i would have been wiped out.

happy days

Mistakes and it cost me.

Made some errors today in fact 6 on the trot, i traded 6 races today and lost on all of them a total of £56.72, i backed and the odds shot up, i laid and they dropped like theres no toomorow, had i let them run in play then the loss would have been my entire bank... as i didnt withdraw last weeks profits it still stands at just over £220.
I then decided to trade the greyhounds that were live on skysports, i dont have skysports so i just traded on the favorite dog in the races at Sheffield taking in £14.44, i also had a dabble on the Arsenal match in the under 3.5 market for a £11.35 profit, so i ended the day down £30.93.

As i said it could have been worse, in the past i have sat looking the screen, trying to decide if i should take say a £9 loss across the card or risk risk losing almost all my bank should my selection onto to win, this i have done and got away with a number of times but its fated that it will catch up on you, i have been caught out a number of times, backed only to see the odds shoot way way above the original odds never to recover, or laid and the odds drop to almost zero, resulting in a big loss, so when i prerace trade i nearly always take the loss across the card, i say nearly because the temptation is still there, was so tempted twice today and as i said had i not cut the loss then i would have been wiped out, because of this and despite "losing" on the day £30.93 i am happy with my discipline.

So my bank slightly dented lives for another day.

Cheers
