You can have as many systems as you like running on as many markets as you like. We have tried to make the systems bot as intuitive as possible whilst being the most powerful systems bot there is.

Clicking ‘Systems’ on the main window opens the systems window, which on first reflection looks a lot like the ‘Add Selections’ window:

Filters are in a tabbed layout so you can easily navigate the different filter area’s:

A summary of your settings shows in a list format:

This is so you can see at a glance all of your settings.

Click the red X to remove a setting (Alt Odds for example)

Click on the filter name to jump to the tab that controls those filters.

Also a ‘Systems’ tab that shows you all of your loaded systems:

You can delete a system by click on the red X.

You can toggle the system from active to inactive by clicking on the bulb on/off icon next in the systems list

Full details of the filters and options

You can save sets of settings that will show in the list in the ‘Use Predefined Settings’ Tab. Choose a settings name and those setting will be applied to you bet.

This is a faster way to adding a system without having to load or type settings in to the setting area.

Setting up a system

On the left hand side of the systems window you can select events and outcomes of those events. Any single or multiple checked box is valid for a system but there are 2 distinct different types of system. The first would be an event such as Football / Half Time In this system the parameters will be set to pick an outcome from the available ones in the market. This outcome is selected based on either a favouritism or the biggest mover (steamer / drifter), this is done when we add a system and I will cover this later. This also applies to Racing and Greyhounds. The second type of system is if I select an actual outcome such as Home Team of a Football Half Time market In this instance the bot will look to place a bet on every Home Team in the Half Time market of every Football game. Many conditions can be applied to these bets including favouritism and movement requirements. Home Team is the team listed first in the event title on Betfair, Newcastle V’s Everton will be deemed as Newcastle as the home team even if the venue is neutral.

How Systems Work!

Systems either pick:

• Favourites
• Steamer or Drifters
  or
• Named Runners

Named ‘runners’ only work for markets where the names of the runners are consistent (like football match odds – HOME TEAM), not for markets where the names of the runners change all the time like in horse racing. So in horse racing and dogs there is no option for this.

Favourites will pick the favourite (2nd, 3rd fav etc.) for the markets you choose. This will work for horse racing and dogs but also for Football Match Odds where is will pick the favourite from the Home, Away or Draw runners.

The Steamer or Drifter option uses your steamer/drifter rules to pick the selection that fits (biggest steamer for example)

You can use these in combination. If you pick the favourite for you system you can apply a steamer / drifter rule from the general filters so in this case it will pick the favourite but only bet on it if it fits your steaming choices.

Markets or Named Runners?

Once you have set up all of your settings and selected the market or markets you want you now have to tell the bot how to pick your selections.

A Market:

System Type 1, e.g. Football / Half Time or Racing

The bot need to know what selections to pick at the time the bets are ordered. You can select a favouritism range, select favouritisms, or pick runners from a set of rules for movers (steamers / drifters). Please take a look at the steamers instructions to learn how to set them up.

If you pick Fav Range with values 1 – 1, the bot will pick out the favourite from markets selected, the favouritism is checked at the time of ordering the bets not at the time the system is added.

If you pick Fav Range with values 1 – 2, the bot will pick out the favourite AND the second favourite.

If you have setup a rule to look for the biggest drifter it will order the ‘runner’ that has drifted the most (according to your drifting rules)

A Named Runner:

System Type 2 (actual named outcome), e.g. Home Team of a Football Half Time market.

In this instance you have only the ‘None’ option, the bot will simply find all the named ‘ runners’ e.g. Home Teams from all Football markets.

You may also select a favouritism or steamer / drifter rule from the system filters. In this case the selection you have chosen (e.g. Home Team) will have to be the favourite ranking or have moved in odds to match your rules.

All you need to do now is set what country the events have to take place in and win and/or place markets (win/place only applies to racing and dogs).

Then, after giving your system a name, click ‘Add/Edit’, your system will appear in the systems tab window.
