Java

I started with the WSDL from the Betfair developers program- created the interfaces from this etc.

I wrote a bot to perform the trading, this will place/cancel/re-place the bets given the market conditions. The bot will trade many races at once, each race creates an array of bots - one per horse used.

The trading begins 20 minutes before each race. More than one race can be traded at once as some races are 5 minutes apart.

Currently no bets are actually placed, but are simulated in real time.

A GUI will be written in Eclipse RCP, this will provide a means of altering parameters, analysing results and replaying results to simulate different parameters.

WATCH THIS SPACE.....
