Stake not set for any selection

Hi all

I have a strategy running in real mode on the greyhound place markets. Showing a decent profit after 4 days. But quite often the bot will simply stop firing and returns ‘stake not set for any selection..’. As this happens without any consistency it’s hard to know what is wrong. For example the bot ran all day yesterday and placed around 60 bets. Today it placed bets on the first 3 races and then the error returned. I’ve tried restarting, clearing the markets, but nothing has changed from day to day so not sure why it sometimes works and sometimes doesn’t. There are no price or odds conditions to be met it should simply be betting on runner position.

Many thanks

Hi Fatsober,

This means that there are no selections that satisfy your rules.

Send us screenshots of your settings and screenshots of Reports tab when this happens. You can open support ticket at our help center and send us those files:

Thanks, I'll do that. As the bot is placing on the runner by position I can't understand what would make it randomly not fire. Thanks for your help

Please post screenshots of your strategy settings. Also note that dutching functionality only works on markets with single winner, it does not work on place markets as odds are too low to get sure profit if one of selections wins.

Oh that’s strange as it was dutching places for me from 6am until about half 1 then stopped fireing
Message in reports said “stake is not set for any selection”
“Either bets are placed on this market”
If I can’t used dutching for places what bet in staking can I use?
But it was working earlier

Maybe it was working when odds were higher e.g. above 2.0 or 3.0.

You can use other staking plans as you like.

Dutching is unique, there is no staking plan that can calculate stakes like dutching one.

Its mathematics, you cannot place bets at low prices to get sure profit if one of them wins, it is impossible.

Hi there... I just wondered if there had been any update on this issue or if anybody had found a work around.

I am currently experimenting with dutching the place markets and having the same difficulties.

Many thanks,

Dave
