Only two bookies right now. Although I'm adding Codere soon since it is prepared handle more bookies
Cool, that's impressive, hope you continue to make progress in your project. And if you don't mind me to ask, are there many arb opportunities for each in-play game? Are there games where your bot did not get a single arb monitoring whole match of the game?

Thanks man. I hope I can get more markets suggestions from experienced users.
Talking about 1x2 Tennis market only, yeah, there are some games where the bot doesn't find an arb, its like for every 5 games in-play 1 has an arb in this market, some of them are less than 1% margin, others can go like 8% margin, however this opportunities disappear quickly (like 2-10 seconds) but they usually appear again in the same game couple of times before its ended.

Thats why I think its hard to arb live matches manually, I imagine it is basically impossible

Thanks for info,

but I think that arb with odds 2.50 - 2.05 is very dangerous even if it is live arb.

So probably this arb is between some sharp bookie and soft book which have delay in odds refreshing. And potentially one of side in this arb can void that bet.
Of course that is not so unusual (there are threads and threads on forums where people complains about voided live bets)

In other words, when writing bots it is not just a technical challenge to place bets on different webpages, but also there is general context from
sports betting.

Yeah I agree, it is insane work if doing live arbs manually. Even using alert services with their deep links it is still crazy difficult to do as they are almost always wrong or late. I was always wondering who even uses such services with alert services, to me it looked like a waste of money on subscription... but perhaps I am missing something there..

At least when manually live arbing (With a decent stream) you have an idea of when its dangerous to place a bet and when its not too risky.  (Like between games in tennis, or when the team you are backing are attacking etc)

I wouldnt ever use software blind live trading, but good luck OP if you make it work for you!!

Do you guys recommend arbing only pre-live matches?

Won't that lead to a ban?
You will be banned in live too. The problem is that not all bookies change odds at same time in live arbs. That would result in many not covered bets in your software. So better option is to start prematch and after you have perfected software for prematch than you can go to live. But first you need prematch experience.

Do you @qubit, or anyone else reading this, know how to make a deep link to an action which inserts the bet automatically into the bet slip? I have seen the alert services do this with Pinnacle, bet365, WillHill, Unibet for example, but it hasn't always worked?

At least at bet365 you have to be a confirmed affiliate to get these links.
