1 BIG NEWS!! The Staking Machine (TSM) now has Whitaker ELS Staking!!!
The Staking Machine (TSM) is the most advanced staking analysis software available.
It now includes the latest ELS based version of Whitaker NLC and LC staking so you can easily compare Whitaker Staking to Level Stakes, Percentage Staking, Target Profit Staking and many more. (Currently TSM has 45 staking plans included.)

The Whitaker Staking settings are fully customizable. You can edit the ELS, the bet number, the divisor and select NLC or LC using the “Link stake to cumulative total” checkbox.

TSM has even added in their own options based on their years of experience in the staking field.
You can set a minimum stake and even add a recovery mode!

You can import historical bet results from external sources such as Betaminic or Bf Bot Manager.
You can then see in seconds how different staking plans compare to each other.

You can also run thousands of Monte Carlo Simulation tests on bet data to thoroughly analyse your data and removed the luck of the fixture list. Monte Carlo Simulations shuffle the order of the bets thousands of times and then tell you the max, min and average profits, drawdowns and other key data that allows you to plan your betting systems even better.
KEY DATA from Monte Carlo Simulations
Ave. Tot = The average profit from 5,000 simulations
Lowest Trough = The maximum drawdown of the 5,000 simulations, the lowest the bank ever got.
Average Lowest Trough = The average drawdown / lowest bank levels of the 5,000 simulations.
Bankrupt simulations = how many times the bank hit zero.
If you have past data from your betting systems, then you MUST run that data through TSM with your chosen staking plan settings. It will help you see which staking plan settings are best for your betting system if its historical trend continues.

You can see your ROI / yield / edge broken down by odds range.
If you are researching strategies on Betaminic, then this can help you find which odds ranges are were the most value exists.

The odds frequency chart helps you see the character of your results at a glance.

The moving strike rate chart is a great way to see how periods of positive and negative variance look visually in your data.

This is the MUST have software for serious bettors who work with historical bet data.
Just £3.33 per month with a 12-month subscription, an absolute bargain for what it does.

How TSM Can Help in Real Betting Scenarios
Validate Tipster Profitability
Are you subscribed to a tipster service but unsure if their selections are truly profitable? With TSM, you can import historical selections and instantly assess whether the tipster has a genuine edge. Many tipsters rely on recovery staking plans to mask unprofitable selection systems. TSM puts the power in your hands, helping you uncover the truth by analysing performance with level stakes, so you can make informed decisions.
Optimise Your Selection System
Have you developed your own selection system using TSM’s built-in Selection Hunter (System Builder) or a third-party tool? If your system is already profitable with level stakes, TSM helps you explore staking plans to maximise your returns. By analysing historical selections, you can test low-to-medium risk staking strategies like Retirement or Bookies Bank. These plans can enhance your profits while keeping bankruptcy risk within your acceptable threshold.
Paper Trade New Systems
Are you testing a new selection system without historical data? Use TSM as your personal bet tracker. Record detailed information such as date, venue, and race type for every bet. Once you’ve gathered enough data, TSM enables you to filter by odds and other criteria to analyse profitability. Discover if your selection system has an edge and identify profitable odds ranges, all while building a solid foundation for future success.
Manage Multiple Systems Effectively
Do you run multiple selection systems and need a reliable way to track their performance? TSM allows you to load all your previous betting data, analyse profitability, and identify losing systems. You can even combine multiple systems into a single file to assess overall performance. Gain clarity and control over your betting strategy with TSM, and eliminate guesswork when it comes to profitability.
Includes Built-in Selection Hunter
The Selection Hunter is our powerful filtering tool that will allow you to create your own unique selection systems for UK/IRE Horse Racing and UK Greyhound Racing.
Why Bettors Love TSM
For over 20 years, TSM has been trusted by beginners and pros alike. Its intuitive design, powerful tools, and commitment to user feedback have made it the gold standard for betting software. Whether you’re experimenting with new strategies or refining a tried-and-true system, TSM provides everything you need.
The Staking Machine is the Must Have Bet Tracking and Staking Plan Analysis Tool
One Click is all it takes to switch staking plans and see if you could have increased profits by making a few simple changes. Each Staking Plan is fully Editable.
Generate thousands of Random Bet Data to simulate your own bet selection systems.
Shuffle your data thousands of times and find out if your results are a one off or can be the general expectation of future results. Is your staking plan high risk or low risk ? The results can be displayed in a frequency distribution graph of cumulative total plotted against frequency. Fantastic resource when used properly.
The Staking Machine includes an Import Wizard Feature that allows you to import your past data. You can simply copy/paste from Microsoft Excel or OpenOffice. Or you can load CSV/TXT files directly into TSM.
Convert from SP to BSP and Vice Versa
In TSM we use several quadratic equations to estimate the Betfair SP. Our research has shown this to be over 3 times as accurate. The formulas used take into account over 4000 horse racing tipster selections as recorded in racing-index.
The Staking Machine allows you to filter your bet data. You can filter on strings in the Horse/Selection Column as well as filtering on Odds ranges. Multiple filters can be applied at the same time. Can be an eye opener if you have never looked at this before.
The Staking Machine displays all your vital statistics on the fly. These include – Total Bets, Total Wins, Strike Rate, Required Strike Rate, Average Odds, Average Win Odds, Expected Losing Sequence (E.L.S.), Standard Deviation, Edge, Current Winning Sequence, Current Losing Sequence, Longest Win Sequence and Longest Losing Sequence.
Cumulative Total, Sequences Stats, Draw Down, Monte Carlo Frequency Distribution, Edge and Odds Frequency Graphs all available.
The visual layout makes it so easy to see your betting system like never before.

The Racecards feature is useful addition to TSM.

TSM helps you analyse racing results by course.

TSM also has filters to help build your own horse racing selections system.

If you have never used TSM, then try the demo and be amazed by what it can show you about your betting systems.
“Tom’s 2025” set’s 2024 results analyzed in TSM.
As a quick check to see how Whitaker Staking really compared to other major staking plans, I took the real 2024 results from the x23 strategies I chose for 2025.
(I used these strategies instead of the MDDE strategies since the x23 strategies had real results and not backtested results which means their P/L was more realistic.)
For NLC staking plans that base all stakes on the starting bank and do not link the stakes to the current bank balance, Whitaker and Target Profit staking had very similar performance. Since Target Profit is dangerous at low odds and does not inherently know the possible drawdowns of a strategy, then Whitaker Staking still seems the best NLC option.


Graph Key: Level = 1 unit level stakes NLC / Secure = 2% Target Profit NLC / Whitaker = ELS4/BetNm1k NLC
For LC staking plans Target Profit staking came out with the most profit, but on one occasion it needed to place an enormous 773 unit bet at very low odds which counted as “bankrupt” since it required more funds than were available in the bank. So Whitaker LC staking still wins here, too.


Graph Key: Percentage = 1% stakes LC / Secure = 2% Target Profit LC / Whitaker = ELS4/BetNm1k LC / Level = 1 unit level stakes NLC
One major useful feature of TSM is the ability to use Monte Carlo Simulations that shuffle the order of the fixture list. This is very important in staking analysis since the winning and losing runs affect bankruptcy more.
In 1000 simulations of the LC settings, we can see Secure (Target Profit 2% LC) goes bankrupt in 87% of simulations.
We also see Whitaker LC has the lowest bank trough of all the staking plans at 67% of the starting bank when the other plans had lows of 78% and 73%.

In 1,000 simulations of the NLC settings, we see 1 unit level stakes has a 0.3% chance of bankruptcy. Whitaker staking ELS4/1k has a 4% chance of bankruptcy. And Target Profit 2% staking has a 16% chance of bankruptcy.
If we increase the Whitaker Staking settings from ELS4/1k to ELS4/5k which better matches the number of bets we analysed, then the bankruptcy chance goes down to 1.6%. If we then change it to a ELS5/5k setting, the bankruptcy chance goes down to 0.3% which is on a par with level staking. This shows that with the right settings in terms of the bet number, Whitaker Staking is as good as or better than level stakes.

During the past year, without proper staking software analysis, it had appeared during use that Whitaker LC was more volatile than Whitaker NLC staking and so I switched to NLC staking. But this quick staking analysis shows that If Whitaker LC staking had been used in 2024 with the x23 strategies, it would have made +378 points of profit instead of +271 points, which makes me want to consider LC staking again and do further staking analysis on it.

2 Betting System results +14% increase. +£1,414 on the 10k allotted bank in the last month, and +£1,212 after costs
My main automated betting systems were making losses this mid-month, so I spent more time manual betting.
When automated bots are making losses, there is an urge is to proactively try to force a win. You want to feel like you are doing something to fix the situation.
But I think manual betting is dangerous because:
When chasing losses, we take more risks.
When overconfident from wins, we worry less about risks.
In both cases, it leads to risky behaviour unless you have strong willpower, which I know I lack.
Short term manual betting might get lucky, but it is better to try and work out what the actual steps and triggers you are using for your manual betting are, and then gradually make bots to automate your manual processes and step away from the emotional risks. It is better to have automated bots bubbling along in the background, rather than to actively living in the stressful ups and downs of watching each in-play game praying for a goal in this game, then the next, then the next, for hours on end. You lose your time. Time that could be spent for yourself, either studying, working, relaxing, socialising, being with family, or just simple “down time” that modern society and smartphones tempt away from us. So I apologise for showing the manual betting results, and I want to say this is not the ultimate aim of my betting system. The aim is automation, stability and getting free time back. But the gambler’s urge to chase losses gets to us all now and then.


3 Tom’s Betaminic Test Lay System “Test Lays x8”
June Rank | System | Type | Strategies / Method | P/L £ May 17th to June 16th | P/L Points |
1 | Tom’s Betaminic Test Lay System (Automated or Manual) | Betaminic Data backtesting | Test Lays x8 (May 5th – June 16th) Whitaker NLC + Recovery staking | +£3,150 | +63 points 5k bank |
I am generally against recovery or progressive staking plans. I think they are doomed long term to hit bankruptcy and they are very dangerous concepts in general and just a few steps away from the Martingale style double until you win methods.
However, in recent months, I have had several people asking me to build bots with recovery and progressive staking and they have done much better than I expected. My start point from staking plans is trying to work out the most efficient use of a betting bank in terms of risk/reward, and for backtested strategies, that seems to be heading towards large banks aiming for small increases each month with long period of flat/losing months and a few big positive months that put the whole year into profit. If you have seen the cycle and believe in it, then it can work for you as it has for me, but for some who want green numbers every month, that style of betting can be hard to commit to and stay in long-term through the good and bad months.
I decided to test things out with two of the Betamin Builder researched lay strategies that I have been testing. They had fairly high win rates and I allotted a 5k bank with a 5k trailing stop loss to them, Whitaker Staking (ELSx10 / Bet Number 10,000) and the recovery part of bets was limited to a maximum of 1k per bet, so some recoveries were carried over 2-3 bets. The first strategy had only 15 selections in 6 weeks but managed a high win rate. The second strategy had some painfully large bets sometimes but managed to avoid its stop loss and save my month. It should be noted that during this period both of these strategies made profit on simple lay level stakes and simple lay to liability stakes.
I will let this set keep running with its trailing stop-loss of 5k and see how far it can go.
I still think this recovery staking is extremely dangerous. It has blown up in my face many times in the past in horse racing. But when chasing losses, I would rather risk 5k on this kind of recovery staking than go hard and just back 3 low priced favourites like Real Madrid, Barcelona and Bayern at home in a speculative double or bust treble. We all know that one of those always let’s you down with a silly red card, bad penalty decision or just an “off” day for the favourites.
I don’t really want to share this, but if you are desperate and chasing losses, then active BSG subscribers can get these Betamin Builder strategy settings and BFBM bots from me. It should be a one-off, loss-chasing, gamble where you consider the bank gone as soon as you start the bots.

2 | IPT InPlayTrading (Manual) | IPT In-Play Live Stats | Back H Favs @0-0 / Lay A Dogs@ 0-1 Progressive Staking | +£1.320 | +132 points 1k bank |
I use IPT’s data feed to get more livescore data on my Bf Bot Manager, but this subscription also comes with access to their “InPlayScanner” which can be accessed from an internet browser.

The IPT Scanner shows all the live in-play games that are on, and it makes it easy to rank matches in order of shots on target, shots off target, corners, dangerous attacks and so on. It also highlights statistics when they get to high levels. It also has three Pressure Indexes which are a combination of different stats such as shots on target + dangerous attacks, etc.
IPT In Play Trading Pressure Index is calculated as follows:
This information is direct from IPT. I asked them myself.
Pressure index 1 = | (number of shots on target + number of shots off target in last 10 minutes) x 10 + 1 point for each 5% of possession In the last 10 minutes (Highlighted red in browser scanner when home+ away PI1 combined is 70 or more) |
Pressure index 2 = | Number of dangerous attacks in the last 10 minutes (1 point each) + 1 point to each team if there were no corners in the last 8 minutes. (+2 points to combined total) (Highlighted blue in browser scanner when A) home + away PI2 combined is 15 or more OR B) between 11-14, and has been at least 11 for the last 8 minutes.) |
Pressure index 3 = | Number of dangerous attacks in the last 5 minutes (1 point each) (Highlighted green in browser scanner when 10 or more) |
I was looking for some good inplay opportunities, so I ranked the games by different factors, mainly the shots on target or dangerous attacks columns. I then placed bets in-play based on these two methods:
Back H Favs @0-0
Lay A Dogs@ 0-1
Back H Favs @0-0
If a pre-match favorite had a lot of shots and dangerous attacks, and it was still 0-0, preferably in the first half, but up to 60m was okay, then I would back the favorite to win a target profit of 100 GBP.
If that bet lost, I increased my stake size for the next opportunity, and kept going until I won 100 GBP profit on the trade session. Since it as in-play betting, I would follow the match and if it was still 0-0 with the odds getting higher but still with the home team dominating, then I would add on more stakes at 10 GBP each 5-10 minutes up to the 80m mark.
Lay A Dogs@ 0-1
If the 0-0 game I was backing the home team in then conceded a goal, I would double down on my position and place a large lay bet on the underdog so that a draw would also make 100 GBP profit, and a home win would make even more.
If I was not already betting in a game, and the underdog is up, then I would also enter matches laying the 0-1 dog to win a profit of 100 GBP.
After 60m, back another goal
For matches that have gone past 60m, instead of backing or laying the fav/dog, I would just place a bet on another goal being scored if the odds were above 1.5. That would be backing over 0.5 goals in a 0-0 game, or backing over 1.5 goals in a 0-1 game.
In all of these cases I am using the IPT scanner to find live games with a lot of attacking action and goal mouth pressure, and then place bets. If I lost, I increased stakes to recover losses and achieve my target in the next bet. It was quite emotional and loose betting. The only fixed rule was that I had 1k to play with and if I lost that I would give up on this gambling session. On this occasion I have been lucky and made a decent profit.
After I realised the month was not going to be a financial disaster, I started to make notes on the kind of matches I was going into and seeing if I could turn that into an automated bot that could plug away at lower stakes and show my long term if this kind of method can work for me.
The automated bots will have a trailing stop loss of the allotted bank. So if the bank is 500 GBP and it makes +1,000 profit but then goes on a losing run of -500 GBP, then the bot will stop at that point and I can see how much the bot made before it went on a bank destroying -500 run. The idea here is that I know the bot will hit an unusually long losing run at some point and reach -500. The question is, will there be enough profit from the winning cycles to counterbalance the losing cycles. So maybe a calmer, more data driven automated bot can come out of this kind of betting. My BFBM has the same inplay data feed that IPT Scanner does, so I should be able to automate it over time. But this inplay betting was very casual, emotional driven bets with quite a variety of qualifying matches, so it will take time to really separate the different qualifying criteria and make them into proper working bots.
The IPT Scanner has a Betfair page and a sportsbook page that includes other non-Betfair matches, too. So if there were not any good matches on Betfair, I could use the bookie scanner and then bet on Pinnacle/PS3838.

Bookies Scanner

At the moment the IPT data feed and scanner costs £26 per month with a 6-month subscription.
If you ask them, you might get a cheaper 12-month subscription sometimes that gets the price down to near 20 GBP per month.

Betaminic ShootingBets (Manual) | Pinnacle Dropping Odds | Ask for pre-drop price on sportsbook aggregator – Level Stakes £10 | +£67 | +6.7 points 1k bank |
After some ups and downs in the month it manged to cover costs. These are all with 10 GBP level stakes asking for the old prices after they have dropped.
6 Tom’s BFBM Test Autobots System
Tom’s BFBM Test Autobots (Automated only) | BFBM Data testing | Autobots x4 (3 days June 14th-17th) Progressive Staking | +£63 | +12.6 points 500 bank |
As part of my experiment with progressive staking plans, I tried making bots that place bets on related markets. The stakes are basically doubling after each loss with a trailing stop loss of 500 GBP. The idea is that the markets are related, the selections sometimes overlapping, and depending on how the games play out, different bots will win at different times, but it would be impossible for all bets to lose or win on the same event. There are many possible selections and this set bets one at a time so only one event is inplay each time. Again with the trailing stop loss, the aim is to see if over time the profit of the winning cycles will outweigh the loss of the losing cycles. The staking plan is called “Sparta” since it has the image of trying to hold your nerve as the stakes get larger and larger for some bots on each losing bet.

Active BSG subscribers can get these BFBM bots from me. I am risking a 500 GBP bank with this and enjoying the green numbers so far.
Progressive staking is a dangerous gamble, so consider the bank gone as soon as you start the bots.
7 Tom’s BSG Sparta Test Draw System
Tom’s BSG Sparta Test Draw System (BFBM Automated only) | BFBM Data testing | BSG Sparta x3 (3 days June 14th-17th) Progressive Staking | +£41 | +8.2 points 500 bank |
As part of my experiment with progressive staking plans, I tried using the BSG draw trend selections to place bets on three related markets. The stakes are basically doubling after each loss with a trailing stop loss of 500 GBP. The idea is that the markets are related, so that they could all win on one event, but depending on how the games play out, different bots will win at different times. There are many BSG selections and this set bets one at a time so only one event is inplay each time. Again with the trailing stop loss, the aim is to see if over time the profit of the winning cycles will outweigh the loss of the losing cycles. The staking plan is called “Sparta” since it has the image of trying to hold your nerve as the stakes get larger and larger for some bots on each losing bet.

Progressive staking is a dangerous gamble, so consider the bank gone as soon as you start the bots.
HedgerPro + Tom’s HP Horses (Automated or Manual) | HedgerPro Data Backtesting | HPx8 Whitaker NLC staking | -£207 | -3.5 points 6k bank |
My chosen 4 HedgerPro public strategies had a losing month, but my self-researched strategy continued to make profit.

My current results of all my HedgerPro bots look like this.
Please judge the strategies by how many bets they have placed. Anything with under 100 bets does not have enough data to suggest it is good or not. Anything over 300 bets is just enough data to suggest it is worth trying with higher stakes. 500 and 1000 bets are the key bet numbers to get over for me to have confidence in the results.
Running since March 16th.

Running since April 28th




Running since June 14th


For next month I am going to follow 3 public HedgerPro strategies that are in profit both in level stakes and Whitaker NLC staking.
I will change to Whitaker NLC ELSx5 / Bet Number 1,000 with a 2k bank. (The Staking Machine (TSM) software now has Whitaker ELS-based Staking in it and after initial research I feel that ELSx10 was too conservative and inefficient for the bank. I would rather run a smaller bank on a lower ELS multiple.)

Ryan has released some updated public strategies for the horse racing backtesting tool HedgerPro. I have made BFBM bots that work with those strategies. Email me if you want them. bettingsystemsguide@gmail.com
(Don’t forget to use this 5% OFF discount code “HPBSG” for HedgerPro.)
The updated strategies all have OH after their names in HedgerPro and in my bots which stands for “Overhaul”.

9 Tom’s BSG Draw System
Tom’s BSG Draw System (BFBM Automated only) | BFBM Data | BSGx2 Whitaker NLC staking | -£638 | -10.6 points 6k bank |
My BSG draw system had another bad month. Despite the long term results still being in profit, the short and medium term results are negative. This was one of the reasons I tried the new “Sparta” progressive staking approach on overlapping markets to see if I can recapture that trend value another way.

Original test bot results (1 GBP level stakes)


For next month I am allotting 2k to the BSG system.
I am switching my regular BSG bots to Whitaker ELSx5 / BN 1,000 with a 1k bank.
And then I will also run experimental versions of the BSG bots. 1k on one that plays with inplay bets and another 500 GBP using the Sparta progressive staking.
Active BSG subscribers can get my June BSG bots from me if you want.
The regular and inlay bots should work fine since they are using Whitaker Staking.
However, progressive staking is a dangerous gamble, so consider the bank gone as soon as you start those Sparta bots.
10 Tom’s Betaminic Back System
Tom’s Betaminic Back System (Automated or Manual) | Betaminic Data backtesting | MDDE x16 Whitaker NLC staking | -£796 | -7.96 points 10k bank |
My set of 16 MDDE strategies had a slight losing month. It looked like a big cash amount but is actually only 8% of the 10k bank.

From next month I am going to switch the staking down to WNLC ELSx5 / BN 1k with a 2k bank after testing with TSM.
I have also been running an automated bot with Smartbet that bets on Pinnacle odds about 36-48 hours before KO with level stakes since May 24th.

Strategy Set Trackers
I have tracker sets for the different strategy groupings that I have considered for 2025 because I want to know if any of them significantly beat the others. This month the MDDE set did best on both level stakes and Whitaker NLC staking.
Strategy Set | Level Stakes 10 GBP | Whitaker NLC (ELS4/1k) 1k bank |
2025 Low Drawdown x9 | -7 units | -11 points |
2025 Betaminic Best for 2025 x18 | -43 units | -53 points |
2025 Tom’s choice for 2025 x34 | -15 units | -15 points |
2025 Tom’s MDDE set x16 | +0.3 units | -6 points |

11 Tom’s Betaminic Lay System
Tom’s Betaminic Lay System (Automated or Manual) | Betaminic Data backtesting | Lays x11 Whitaker NLC staking | -£1.586 | -26 points 6k bank |
My private lay strategies had a bad month going down -26 points on the 6k bank.

From next month I am switching these back to Whitaker NLC ELSx5 / BN 1k with a 2k bank.

15 I can make your custom Bot Sets for Bf Bot Manager
I can help you make automated betting bots in Bf Bot Manager for the Betfair Exchange.
Just sign up for my BF Bot Manager 1-month support subscription and I will help you build, test and improve your betting bots.
https://bettingsystemsguide.com/product/bsg-it-support-1-month/
The main thing I offer is help with learning how BFBM works since it is so complex. If you are trying to make a bot, I can help make it for you and answer any specific questions you have about your bots as part of your betting system project. I have years of BFBM experience and instead of reading the entire manual and watching all the tutorial videos, you can just ask me. But it takes time to answer emails and make videos, so that is why it needs a 1-month subscription to my support service. Each time you ask the BFBM support a question, you need to enter a lot of details and explain your project again to them, but with me, it is much easier to get things done since I am a fellow bettor, and I have seen and made many, many kinds of bots. BFBM plays things safe with their answers, but I try to give real, practical answers that have a chance of making profit. The ultimate aim is for you to learn how the software works so that you can take control of your own betting, create your own bots and not rely on anyone else.
If you sign up to my subscription, you get:
- Email support for setting up and using the Bf Bot Manager (BFBM) software.
- Data feed from TippingSports accounts to run my BSG Draw System bots. (i.e. “bsgZeroZero” and “bsg2ZeroZero”)
- Bot sets for use with Bf Bot Manager
- PDF copies of “The Staking Plans Book”, “Winning Sports Betting Strategies” and “Big Data Betting on Football”
- Email support for using the Betaminic site, its statistics database and its other tools.
- Email support for using related tools such as the TippingSports site, In Play Trading (IPT) site, The Staking Machine (TSM) software and other related issues.
If you want my help learning BFBM, building bots and/or want to copy my betting system, please purchase a support subscription and I can help you further. https://bettingsystemsguide.com/product/bsg-it-support-1-month/
The ultimate aim is for you to learn how the software works so that you can take control of your own betting, create your own bots and not rely on anyone else.
16 Support
BSG-BFBM IT Support Subscribers
BSG Subscribers can ask me for a custom bot set so you don’t have to do all the editing yourself if you want to change things.
I will customize your bot set as you want it. (Bank size, staking settings, market conditions, etc.)
I will explain any questions you may have about the bot set. This can save you a lot of time in reading pages of PDFs.
I will help you to make any other bot sets that you are trying to develop. (Betaminic, BFBM, IPT, HedgerPro, etc.)
You can have any of my test bot sets for BFBM, IPT or HedgerPro if you want them.
You get all 3 of my betting books in PDF form if you don’t have them yet.
Please buy a subscription https://bettingsystemsguide.com/product/bsg-it-support-1-month/
and email me BettingSystemsGuide@gmail.com to let me know what kind of bot set you want.
Non-BSG Subscribers
Non-subscribers can still email me to get the bot set and be put on my newsletter list for bot set updates. This is important so that you get alerts when changes are recommended.
If you use the sets as they are with no changes, then there should not be any problems.
But you will have to read the BSG setup guide and BFBM manual to understand and make any edits you want yourself.
The bot sets can be really quite complicated and need quite a lot of ongoing support to explain and answer questions about it if you don’t want to use them as they are. There is a chance to make many mistakes with it if edited without guidance, so for that level of support, please become a BSG-BFBM IT Support Subscriber.
So non-BSG subscribers can get the bot set with default settings, then read my newsletters, read my blog posts, watch my videos, read the BFBM manual and edit the bots yourself based on your understanding of what is best.
Best regards,
Tom
