Alterations to the program mean that the user can tune the application with parameters such as stake to be used, markets to be bet on, maximum liabilities etc. All activity is logged to a seperate logfile for each event being traded giving you the chance to look back at all transactions and view the data and decision making that the application was performing

Bluedot betting has programmed dozens of these type of applications, they are written in Java and can be run from any PC that has Java Runtime installed (freely available to download and probably installed on your PC already).

Depending upon the number of markets that you wish to run your application on you may well need to have access to a PC that runs constantly 24/7, for example if you wished an application to trade the USA/AUS horse racing overnight then your PC would need to be switched on leaving the application to run.
