Anyone Created a Bot Before?

Hello,

robot1 Did you try to create a bot for Betfair already? Anyone who did knows it is hard work. At the moment I am developing the Pre Race Horse Racing Analyzer which has already turned into a trading bot. This bot needs to collect data to determine when to enter and exit the market to make consistently profit.

I am working on the Baseball Matcher too, a software which will help me to get matched at the best prices for the Baseball selections I mentioned earlier. Baseball takes place mostly during the night in Europe, so I need to have an application, which will back and lay the given selections for me.

Generally I do not want to complain. I just want to let you know, that it is hard work to get such a software up and running, because you need to implement every little detail you can imagine. Things and thoughts human beings are doing can not be done by a bot easily. You need to implement every possibility, every little detail.

That’s it for now. I am tired.

Cheers, Loocie

I know what you mean. I am trying to learn how to program at the same time as making the bot which is why it's taken me nearly a year!
Everything was going great until I decided to make it multi-threaded, I then had to go back to the start and re-build it - soemthing i've done 4 times now!
Hopefully I will get there in the end.
All the best, John

Hi John,

Thanks for dropping by. You are right. Sometimes I need to rebuild something, because there was something I did not considered.
Good luck with your bot and keep me updated.

Cheers, Loocie
