Unstable API

[Nikol]

i'm having slow api today too, especially in the races with a large field in aintree.
too much traffic on the betfair server, or on my connection?

Well not. It could be your comp though. It can not stand the pressure and start to slow. I don't know actually. It is ok today.

the computer is new, so probably it was my bad connection... too much data on a single market

API problems but I made £xxx today...

And I'm not giving any of it back...

If you are losing money because of API problems and it bothers you then you need to either reduce your liability or change your strategy or both.

Assume that any bet you place will be lost. If you can't handle that then don't make the bet (or opening trade).

Ahah, now I understand why they wrote at the end that:
"(...) we do take these incidents very seriously."
