Bet Angel Professional v1.56 contains the following new features and updates
Guardian
A new 'List' tab page can be found in Guardian's ribbon and its contents are used to configure the Markets List display.
New columns can be added to the Markets List using the column chooser (similar method to the One-Click screen)
The Markets List now supports up to 5 Automation Rules and 5 Nominated Selections per market
Note: Keyboard shortcuts have been updated to support each of the five Automation columns in Guardian (assigning and clearing rules from column)
Custom columns can be added to the Markets List to display information about the Market, a chosen Selection, a Stored Value or Historical Stored Value
e.g. Number of selections in the market, current in-play betting delay, book%, name and price of the favourite in the market, Market Name (last word), Race Distance, Jockey claim, Runner's Age, Runner's Weight, Runner's Wearing, Runner's Day since last run, Runner's Dam name, Runner's Sire name
As with the One-Click screen, custom columns are defined as a named profile. The custom columns profile can be changed using the picklist at the top of Guardian
Other columns that can be added to the list are:
'Alert' columns (1 to 5) which work in the same way as the Watch List alerts (set by Automation)
Watch List Alert columns (1st & 2nd header rows) to show the same alert in Guardian as shown on the Watch List
Green All Selections Predicted Profit
Highest / Lowest profit values in market (and 'if Lose' columns for Place markets)
New options allow the assigned Automation Rules and Nominated Selections to be saved when using the Save Markets button
Custom column profiles and Markets List layout profiles can be imported/exported for easy sharing between PCs and/or the forum
Extra right-mouse click menu options have been added to the Markets List to help with clearing Automation rules, Nominated selections, and Alerts
The 'Search' group adds the ability to search for a piece of entered text in the Markets List.
The row is selected when a match is found and the Next/Previous buttons can be used to search again
New free format Notes column in Guardian's Markets list which will be saved when 'Save Markets' is used
Automation
Custom Ranking - adds the ability to rank selections based on your own weighting/score (using Stored Values)
New 'Update Custom Ranking Of Selections' rule type with parameters to assign one of five custom rankings per market.
Each time the rule is triggered, the ranking will be updated based on your selected options
Options to Rank selections by the Back price, Lay Price, LTP, SP, or Volume or based on the value of a Stored Value or Historical Stored Value (at chosen point in time).
Ascending or Descending order.
All conditions that allow a specific selection to be chosen (by name, by position etc) have been updated so that a new 'by rank' option is available.
When choosing by rank, you specify the Custom Ranking (1-5) that you have previously updated and enter the actual rank position that you require.
When setting a Stored Value there is a new option to use 'A selection's rank in a Custom Ranking' if you want to copy the rank at that time to a Stored Value or a Historical Stored Value
named Stored Values : different names but all on the same selection
range of values in a History List : time based range from a history list sampling the data at a defined rate
named Stored Value (across all selections) : builds the set by looking for the same named value stored against each selection in the market.
value from a History List (across all selections) : builds the set by looking for a value at a specific point in time in a history list stored against each selection in the market.
New 'Stored Value Set' condition - allows you to test if a Stored Value has been set with a value (or not) - useful for deciding whether to initialise a Stored Value.
Stored Values can now be set with 'Selection Id' and 'Betting Delay' values, 'Unmatched Bet information of a selection' - lookup either number of bets or total value (back only/lay only/any bet) (at any price or above/below a specified price), 'The number of seconds until the Event Start Time' - effectively the countdown timer used elsewhere in Bet Angel. Value is stored as 'seconds.milliseconds', 'The In-play Time in seconds' - The amount of time since Bet Angel was notified that the market turned in-play. Value is stored as 'seconds.milliseconds'
'Notes' page has been added to the Automation Editor so that notes can be made and saved with each rule in the rules file
New rule type 'Set Stored Values using a file' reads a chosen CSV file and assigns values to Stored Values as required (either shared or local to that automation instance) to selections/markets/events
The rule matches [market name/time/selection name/selection row] against the market running the Automation rule type to determine which Stored Values to set
An example CSV file can be found in the templates folder of Bet Angel
Changes to the Parameter tab for the 'Alert' rule type to allow Alerts to be sent to Guardian's Markets List
the 'Format' picklist replaces the 'timestamp' checkbox and offers more choices
Guardian Alert columns have been added to 'Location' picklist that previously only contained Watch List alerts
Ladder
The Reorder Selections button can now be configured to sort by Price, Volume, Row index, Saddle cloth or Stall number
Markers - extension to the Horizontal Bar / Vertical Bar markers to allow just a single bar to be drawn on left / right / top / bottom of the ladder cell
More 'Additional Info' choices: In-Play Delay, Jockey claim, Runner's Age, Runner's Weight, Runner's Wearing, Runner's Day since last run, Runner's Dam name, Runner's Sire name
Excel
TAKE_SP, TAKE_SP_ALL, KEEP, KEEP_ALL now supported as a commands for individual selections
for TAKE_SP_ALL / KEEP_ALL only the unmatched bets on that selection will be marked Take SP / Keep
for TAKE_SP / KEEP only the bet matching the reference in column R will be marked Take SP / Keep
Commands enhanced to support the extra Nominated Selections e.g. SET_NOMINATED3 / SET_NOMINATED4 / SET_NOMINATED5 / CLEAR_NOMINATED3 / CLEAR_NOMINATED4 / CLEAR_NOMINATED5
Commands enhanced to support the extra Automation columns e.g. SET_AUTO2 rulefile / SET_AUTO3 rulefile / CLEAR_AUTO2 / CLEAR_AUTO3 etc
More 'Additional Info' choices in settings area: Jockey claim, Runner's Form, Runner's Age, Runner's Weight, Runner's Wearing, Runner's Day since last run, Runner's Dam name, Runner's Sire name, Inplay Delay
One-click Screen
New toolbar buttons to Import/Export grid layout profiles from the one-click screen
Import/Export buttons added to the Custom Columns editor
More 'Additional Info' choices for custom columns: In-Play Delay, Jockey claim, Runner's Age, Runner's Weight, Runner's Wearing, Runner's Day since last run, Runner's Dam name, Runner's Sire name
Custom columns editor now has the ability to allow the editing of a Shared Stored Value on the one-click screen. Useful when testing an automation file to seed a specific value into a SV, or to manually push values into a column to force a particular sort order
Matched Bet Screen
'SP Bet' column added to the Matched Bets tab to indicate if the bet was matched at the Starting Price. Column widths of the matched bets lists are now saved in the layout profile.
Keyboard shortcuts
In the keyboard shortcut editor the 'Market Navigation' has new shortcuts to change the market in the current trading screen:
Select the next/previous market from Guardian or a Watch List
Select the next/previous event from Guardian or a Watch List
Note: With the options available, you can configure the shortcut to prevent a change of market type when navigating. So if you had a number of soccer matches loaded into Guardian (with Match Odds and Over/Under markets) and were currently showing Over/Under 2.5 on a ladder, you could use a shortcut to navigate to the next match's Over/Under 2.5 market skipping the other market types in between.
