Bet Angel Professional v1.55 contains the following new features and updates
Automation
The concept of Historical Stored Values has been added to Automation. Each market and each selection can now maintain up to ten ‘History Lists’ that can be used to store values over time. You can think of them in terms of a price history that stores your own values.
Those values can then be extracted for use in other Automation rules (by looking up the what the value was in the history a certain number of seconds ago)
They can also be plotted on an Advanced Chart. E.g. You could store and plot VWAP on a chart, or store a value to act as an indicator on the chart.
On the Stored Values tab, use the actions 'Store a value in a history list' and 'Clear the current value in a history list' to modify the contents of a history list
New options have been added to the General tab:
A rule can now apply to EVERY selection in the market.
Note: These three features are particularly useful when populating the Historical Stored Values.
A new Rule Type to 'Cancel Unmatched Bets On All Other Selections ( Price Dependent )' has been added. i.e. Cancel bets on all the other selections in the market other than the one that the rule is applying to.
A new Rule Type has been added to 'Export All Stored Values' to a CSV file. When this rule is used there is a new 'Parameters' tab to configure the options you wish to export, these include only Shared SVs / only non-Shared / with or without the latest value in each History List.
A new 'Text Comparison condition' has been added to compare text in the market name against a list of entered text. This can be used with condition grouping to construct more complex AND/OR/NOR text matching conditions
A new 'Current Selection Condition' has been added to compare if the current selection 'Is' or 'Is Not' the one specified in the rule condition. The condition is particularly useful when applied to a rule using the new 'EVERY' selection choice
The ability to Store the Value of'Last Traded Price Book % of a selection'
The ability to store the 'Number of Selections in the market'
Extra parameters are available for 'Close Trade on a selection (with or without greening)' to allow closing at a specific price rather than just current & reverse prices.
A Stored Value can now be set with the following values: Close Trade Profit at a price, Close Trade Profit with greening at a price, the market's Green All Profit (current market price), the market's Green All Profit (reverse market price). These values are also available in the Stored Value condition.
The Historic Relative Odds conditionhas been upgraded to also allow comparison of a selection's volume in addition to its prices. Comparison options have also been enhanced and adjustments now include multiply/divide and adjustment by fixed amount & percentage.
'Projected SP' has been added as an option to the Place At parameter for appropriate rules such as when placing Back & Lay bets
A new Staking option 'By liability using Stored Value Stake' has been added. This uses the same calculation as ‘By Liability’ but the stake used for the calculation is provided by a Stored Value rather than defined in the rule itself.
Ladder
A new Markersfeature has been added to the Ladder Settings that allow coloured markers to be placed on chosen ladder columns, either at a fixed price or at a price determined by a shared Stored Value. Markers can be in the form of horizontal or vertical bars, cell borders or a whole cell highlight.
What-if profit and Current profit values can now be shown in the Additional Information area
The traded amount displayed in the traded volume column can now be modified to display the amount as a percentage of selection's volume, or as a percentage of market's volume. The setting is found on the General page of the Ladder Settings.
One-click Custom columns
The Custom Column button used to start a Servant can now display the value from a shared stored value
Extra bet cancellation options have been added – you can now cancel back and/or lay bets on the other selections in the market rather than just on the selection itself
General
Bet Angel Settings ('Excel' tab) – new option to 'Note processed commands in the market's Log’. Useful for keeping track of Stored Values set by Excel
Advanced Chart Settings - new buttons have been added to import/export a chart setting from/to a file. Useful when sharing chart settings with the forum or between your own PCs.
New Keyboard shortcuts – ‘Close the One-click window under the mouse’ in the One-click category & ‘Close the ladder window under the mouse’ in the Ladder category
TheLogtabs on the Bet Angel main screen and in Guardian now have the concept of paging. You can also now choose the number of lines displayed on each page. This gives a performance improvement when writing a lot of information to the log and makes navigating through the log easier when it is being updated in the background. This new implementation also uses disk paging to use less memory.
Chart price histories are now paged to disk so that Bet Angel uses less memory and can display advanced charts history spanning two days (when using longer time intervals) - assuming Guardian has been refreshing the market for those two days.
The Chart page of Bet Angel Settings has a picklist to control the usage of disk paging. The setting defaults to 'Full' which will page all types of chart histories to the disk to conserve as much memory as possible.
Added support for the extra currencies that Betfair recently added
Other Changes
In addition to everything above we have also enhanced the internal memory management of Bet Angel to page certain data to disk. This has allowed us to increase the amount of chart history available, improve the overall performance of logging and create the new type of Stored Value for Automation detailed above.
