Creating a fully automated betting / trading model is not a simple task and goes far beyond Excel /VBA's and power user's capabilities.
To have some probability of success you need to be proficient in algorithms and data structures (for example graph theory, map reduce, genetic programming etc), have good understanding about pattern recognition methodologies, statistics and probability, data mining, and discrete mathematics in general.
In top of these you need to have some solid development experience as the challenges presented by the volume of data you will be dealing and the complexity of its processing are far from trivial and far exceed the capabilities of Excel / VBA requiring the use of both an imperative and a declarative language.
