I am currently testing automation, stake is set to 0.01 back bet, Best Market Price.

What could cause automation to malfunction like this ?

Was on today's race.

Its because your using below the Betfair minimum stake of £2 so to get round this Bet Angel places a bet of £2 at 1000.0 then cancels the excess and moves the remainder down to the odds you placed it at, but if a horses odds fly out to 1000.0 in the middle of this process the £2 will get matched at these odds.

My initial 0.01$ back bet was suppose to be placed at 57:33,
2$ was matched later on 58:30 at odds of 1000.

If BA canceled my 0.01$ bet and placed 2$ instead, why would he use odds of 1000 if probably better market price was still on, time gap is almost an 1min. long?

And horse lost btw, no worries.

I will continue to use just signals instead of 0.01$ stake, probably this wont happen again then.
