I am running 1.54.2c, and it seems that the rounding issue is back when trying to green up.
I got the following message when trying this morning
" While Greening Up. unable to place £0.02 Lay bet at 1.7 on 6. Brooklyns Best due to befair's rules regarding payout/liability rounding"
Does this mean something has changed again? as i could green up on small stakes last night?
BTW I can cash out in Betfair which is a work around but not ideal.
Any advice on any settings to change etc gratefully received or is it just it it out and wait?
Thanks

Like the message says, that bet does not meet their new rules regarding rounding. That bet would cause them to have to round the liability by 28% which exceeds their threshold. 1.7 is one of the prices where neither a 1p or 2p bet would be allowed due to the excessive rounding. P&Ls are just going to be a few pence more uneven from now onwards.
The cash out calculations are very inefficient compared to greening, so although adopting that model may have allowed you to move 1p around in the P&L in this case, if you were to adopt that method long term you'd lose a lot more pennies in total over time! Best to just ignore the message from now, it'll green what it can and just make a note of the others in the log. The rejection of one tiny adjustment bet does not prevent the rest of the green up process from working, so no risk of your P&L being wildly out.
same here. https://youtu.be/ezG0FuAD85c but using Version: 1.54.2b
This only difference in the code between 1.54.1 and 1.54.2 is the new handling for betfair's rounding restriction. That code doesn't even run if the stake or price determines that the restriction does not apply. We know that this emergency fix had to be done at betfair as they were worried about the stability of the whole exchange if they didn't intervene, so perhaps they've adjusted other internal settings to ease the strain on their servers.
Thanks for the reply.
I think i'll try on windows 10 tomorrow and see if that makes any difference as im wondering if its just affecting people on windows 7.
I'm surprised so few people have mentioned it as its quite a noticeable change. If it is the new normal due to Betfair changing something their end it is going to take some getting used to.
