It&#8217;s not just a link, you can custom write tools, views of the market and all manner of wonderful things in a spreadsheet and get it to &#8216;talk&#8217; to Betfair vis Bet Angel.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The Microsoft Excel integration not only allows you to view a market in Excelm but also trigger bets from the spreadsheet through Bet Angel. This isn&#8217;t just simple triggered betting however, we also allow you to send Bet Angel specific functions and bet characteristics using our unique scripting language.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Want to place an offset bet with a ten second fill or kill delay and a trailing stop? No problem. If you want to trade a certain price if something some happens, that&#8217;s possible. Only place a bet fifteen seconds in-play if the price on the favourite has drifted by a certain amount, that&#8217;s possible too. In fact just about anything is possible using the spreadsheet capability.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Whether you use the spreadsheet to monitor certain types of activity or to trade automatically its useful. Or why not become a <strong>robotrader <\/strong>and use Excel to help you in certain markets. A machine is often quicker to react to the market than a human so get it to enter a trade and you can manage it from there? The possibilities are endless.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Part one of three<\/p>\n<p><object width=\"425\" height=\"344\" data=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/v\/YyP7GnwK-z8&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=1&amp;rel=0\" type=\"application\/x-shockwave-flash\"><param name=\"allowFullScreen\" value=\"true\" \/><param name=\"allowscriptaccess\" value=\"always\" \/><param name=\"src\" value=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/v\/YyP7GnwK-z8&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=1&amp;rel=0\" \/><param name=\"allowfullscreen\" value=\"true\" \/><\/object><\/p>\n<p>Part two of three<\/p>\n<p><object width=\"425\" height=\"344\" data=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/v\/qpYgusRUb1E&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=1&amp;rel=0\" type=\"application\/x-shockwave-flash\"><param name=\"allowFullScreen\" value=\"true\" \/><param name=\"allowscriptaccess\" value=\"always\" \/><param name=\"src\" value=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/v\/qpYgusRUb1E&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=1&amp;rel=0\" \/><param name=\"allowfullscreen\" value=\"true\" \/><\/object><\/p>\n<p>Part three of three<\/p>\n<p><object width=\"425\" height=\"344\" data=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/v\/CO4E9CIcDac&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=1&amp;rel=0\" type=\"application\/x-shockwave-flash\"><param name=\"allowFullScreen\" value=\"true\" \/><param name=\"allowscriptaccess\" value=\"always\" \/><param name=\"src\" value=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/v\/CO4E9CIcDac&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=1&amp;rel=0\" \/><param name=\"allowfullscreen\" value=\"true\" \/><\/object><\/p>\n<div class=\"pvc_clear\"><\/div>\n<p id=\"pvc_stats_355\" class=\"pvc_stats all  \" data-element-id=\"355\" style=\"\"><i class=\"pvc-stats-icon medium\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><svg aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\" data-prefix=\"far\" data-icon=\"chart-bar\" role=\"img\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewBox=\"0 0 512 512\" class=\"svg-inline--fa fa-chart-bar fa-w-16 fa-2x\"><path fill=\"currentColor\" d=\"M396.8 352h22.4c6.4 0 12.8-6.4 12.8-12.8V108.8c0-6.4-6.4-12.8-12.8-12.8h-22.4c-6.4 0-12.8 6.4-12.8 12.8v230.4c0 6.4 6.4 12.8 12.8 12.8zm-192 0h22.4c6.4 0 12.8-6.4 12.8-12.8V140.8c0-6.4-6.4-12.8-12.8-12.8h-22.4c-6.4 0-12.8 6.4-12.8 12.8v198.4c0 6.4 6.4 12.8 12.8 12.8zm96 0h22.4c6.4 0 12.8-6.4 12.8-12.8V204.8c0-6.4-6.4-12.8-12.8-12.8h-22.4c-6.4 0-12.8 6.4-12.8 12.8v134.4c0 6.4 6.4 12.8 12.8 12.8zM496 400H48V80c0-8.84-7.16-16-16-16H16C7.16 64 0 71.16 0 80v336c0 17.67 14.33 32 32 32h464c8.84 0 16-7.16 16-16v-16c0-8.84-7.16-16-16-16zm-387.2-48h22.4c6.4 0 12.8-6.4 12.8-12.8v-70.4c0-6.4-6.4-12.8-12.8-12.8h-22.4c-6.4 0-12.8 6.4-12.8 12.8v70.4c0 6.4 6.4 12.8 12.8 12.8z\" class=\"\"><\/path><\/svg><\/i> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"16\" height=\"16\" alt=\"Loading\" src=\"https:\/\/www.betfairtradingblog.com\/blog_wp\/wp-content\/plugins\/page-views-count\/ajax-loader-2x.gif\" border=0 \/><\/p>\n<div class=\"pvc_clear\"><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"twitter-share\"><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/intent\/tweet?via=betangel\" class=\"twitter-share-button\">Tweet<\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>For some time Bet Angel has had the capability to link to Excel.
