Use the link from the first post of this thread. It sounds like you've used the Server Edition link that is only suitable for Bet Angel VPS.

This got it to 'Streaming'. Worked for a while. Now completely frozen Bet Angel twice to the point where only exit was 'End Task'

That's the only frozen report we've had from v1.46.0. Use Bet Angel with streaming switched off for a while to check that works properly on your PC, then contact support and we can go into more depth.

Good work to get this pushed out as a beta, out of interest have you done much tests on what happens if streaming goes down? Does it automatically switch to polling or do you have to switch streaming off?

It would be great if betfair had an api for the status of the various endpoints that can then be fed into the trading environment such as BA.

That's a good idea!

In the meantime I guess you could always just scrape their status page.

I too was stuck on 'Stopped' for the last couple of days. But the Beta 2 download appears to have fixed this for me. I now see 'Streaming'

Many thanks for the quick turnaround.

If Bet Angel loses connection with the Streaming servers it will try to reconnect automatically - once connection is reestablished, Bet Angel will receive anything that was missed in the interim so that prices are brought up to date and no bet change messages will be lost. It will not automatically switch off streaming, but you could choose to do so yourself via the Settings window and Bet Angel will revert to the normal API.

When you switch on Exchange Streaming in the settings window, it will attempt connection and if that first connection fails, then it'll just use the normal API.

We have yet to see a situation where betfair's streaming goes down, but the normal API remains active, but if that occurs we'll experiment with the code to see what sort of errors occur during stream recovery.

I've re-installed v1.46.0 beta_2 and this version IS now showing [Streaming] whereas the previous original betaversion was only ever showing [Stopped]

Last night, my charts were showing more detail.

Have i turned off something, or, are the charts not working ?

Thx

Those charts come straight from betfair, so we don't have any control over their display. From the look of it, each runner traded at a price of 100, which has corrupted the y-axis scaling. Perhaps use the % chart option as that image is more tolerate to spikes.

This was all pe-race .. and they were favs.

The same charts were showing on other software, and, the fix came right, 2 races later.

Thx

Had a strange occurrence tonight, laid £53 at 3.4 on the Braga v Chaves correct score market. £33.72 was matched and then the price carried on dropping leaving £19.28 sat there.

(Edit) Just checked on Betfair and the full amount shows as matched.
