My thoughts on Eric’s bot project
Posted in Tutorials by StefanBelo Tags: bot programming
Eric’s specification is already known. You can read it in the article: My bot specification. As Eric stated this bot project is more for educational purposes than betting for real. It will show him how pieces are put together and the bot is born.
Eric’s main goal is to understand how the bot will be designed so he could use it as a template for building his own bots. He wants to use it either with the Bot Executor or with the Trade Opportunity Lookup Service to run the bot on many markets automatically.
If someone is able to write a project specification at least one thing is clear, he has got an understanding of what he needs at least. For now he does not know how his specification will turn in an executable code and what that all involves from the programmers point of view.
If you read Eric’s project specification you know he wants to run his bot on the UK horse racing markets skipping three types of races, betting on a selection if the selection odds are in range with fixed stake and stop bot running after 4 losses.
The bet type selection criteria are not so good defined, he did not specify what bet type will be placed if there are two horse in preset odds range for backing or laying, but that is no problem as this is only the bot tutorial.
