Hi, I was wondering if there is any free Betfair software that will automatically place lay bets for you. Say just straight $10 lay bets upto a price of $10 at the jump or just before?

Betfair SP unfortunately makes you put in a liability of $30 and you cant just set and forget a flat stake!

Please help and thank you in advance!

Not sure but I believe there are some free ones out there.

You can always learn to use the API and write yourself a program like I did.

There are heaps of tutorials and almost ready made scripts to just pick up and use.

I would like to learn about the API they have a free version not sure how good it is.

What is API by the way? BF SP has the downside of a liability as opposed to flat stake laying.

well betting assistant is as good as 'free' & you will be able to do what you desire via integration with excel, & theres a 30 trial to get your feet wet

Yes there normal subscription is about $10 a month or $100 for the yearly sub

API = Application Programming INterface. They offer a set of web services which allow people to write programs to interact with betfair.

Its free unless you want to smash it heavily. I find the free version does everything I need. You can get more info at bdp.betfair.com

If one is new the Aurto betting & does not wish to do any technical study.

Its best if one then only targets programs that a simple to use .

Most of them tend to be complicated to set up.

The 2 easiest to use that I have found are BetBotPro & BF Manager.

Cost is 100.00-155.00 depending on choice & lenghth of subscription.

All give free trial runs.

The one I use is BetBotPro

I just had a look at the API and i see there is a version using just excel, what language are you programming in?

I use java as it gives me much more control then the VB scripting in excel. But I think people should use what they are comfortable with as it will be easier then.
