Delayed API Status
Hello. Since yesterday I have a delayed API on my BF Explorer trading software. I had no bots running when this happened and now I am also unable to trade as all stakes in the markets keep flashing all over the ladders on random odds, being absolutely impossible to figure out what was the last price ...

Free Trial Review
I tried BFexplorer, having used 3-4 different software applications beforehand.
The 2 days utilising the software, I managed to get a feel for the product and like the modern display on the black background.
Bets placed were very responsive with no lagging experienced from other products.

Mir, you have no subscription with bfexplorer, your api access expired 31.8.2017 21:20:52, so I do not understand why are you spaming this forum?
Betfair closes accounts with no money, or no betting activity on accounts. Betfair api access is restricted to delay api data for accounts with no betting activity in last 3 months, or for accounts as mentioned in your post, where data usage pattern shows similarity of commercial user who just take data from betfair without any betting on these markets.
I think betfair closed developers and apps site due to this misuse of their api by Indy guppies.
Mir.
Thumbs up for the "Betfair Bot Programming for Non-Developers" series!
Mir.
Wow! that´s nice!
It looks very friendly...
I think it's worth trying out.

What you see on the video is not bot script, but as said: “…This simple betfair bot shows possibilities you have got when utilizing Bfexplorer BOT SDK …”
I created simplified version of the bot as the bot trigger script, only favourite changes are reported, bot trigger script does not load betfair SP prices:
FavouriteChangedBotTrigger.fsx

Betfair owns your api access, so you must fulfill their T&C for accessing betfair data trough api.
Did you check my free web app to learn whether api data are available for your account?
https://www.cashoutall.com/
From which country are you from? Is betfair legal in your country? If not but you still can have betfair account, I mean if betfair did not close your account, then your ISP may block access to betfair servers.
Bfexplorer app uses two types of api access for market data, rest api, and streaming api, did you check both types of api access to learn if there are some differences?
Software cannot stop working suddenly, it cannot broke like that so it means that problems are really or your side. No other subscriber reported such problems.
If you are able to run some kind of remote access app, like teamviewer or similar app then email me access information, and I will check your problems on your computer.

I Have money, I've placed and matched bets and didn't anything. Just used BF Explorer. Nothing else. Now no other software works. Can't understand. Account is ruined for any other software trading...

It is called trigger bot script, as it triggers some action, mainly bet placing or action bot execution.
In “Bots to Execute” view, click on Add button, the “Add a new order/bot” dialog appears. Focus to Search input box, and type there: trigger.
Select bot named: “Execute Trigger Bot”, well yes as the bot name suggests it is the bot which executes your trigger script files, or assemblies.
Focus to TriggerFilePathName parameter input box, on the right side of the input box appears “…” button, click on and Open dialog appears. By default there is set bot trigger assembly file filter: “Bo trigger assemblies (*.dll)”, changing it to: “Script files (*fs; *.fsx)” and select you bot trigger file, click on Open button.
If required, enter another bot trigger parameters through TriggerParameters input, name your “Execute Trigger Bot” settings and click on Save button.
Now you are ready to execute your bot settings on selected markets, or using the bot in tools: “Bot Executor” or “Bot Executor for Selection”.
What is a difference in bot script file, and bot assembly file?
The bot script is source code of your bot trigger, the bot assembly is complied version of your bot trigger. When bot script is used, bfexplorer first compile the script and then loads bot assembly to execute it, therefore first bot script execution takes more time, when using bot assembly, the bot execution is instant.
Why there are those two options?
The script file is used when you test you bot trigger, when you develop it using Bfexplorer Bot SDK. When you are finished with trigger development, and bot trigger works, so it is profitable you can build its compiled version, and maybe distribute to your friends, or sell to other people.

Betfair disables live betfair api access for accounts having no money on, placing no bets or breaking their T&C.

It's working again. But now I have "Delayed API". API data take up to 3 minutes (!!!) to update. Why this happened ? How can it be fixed ?
Stefy
Yes, I already re logged in many times and reinstalled the software many times. I can log in but professional features are unavailable. Anti virus is off.
Betfair Bot
Yes, you have got professional subscription, so it means something went wrong when authorizing your subscription status.
Close bfexplorer and re-login again, let me know if you have got still wrong subscription status.
Check your antivirus software. Maybe requests to my authorization server are blocked.

It is Boolean algebra, and you can use any combination of parameters you like.
From your example: MatchTime>45 And ScoreDifference>1
Let’s say that the match time is 30 and score is 0 – 0, then from Boolean algebra you have got False and False what is equal to False, that means your trigger will not be fired.
Let’s say that the match time is 46 and score is 0 – 0, the result is True and False, what equals in Boolean algebra to False, the trigger is not fired.
Let’s say that the match time is 50 and score is 2 – 0, then from Boolean algebra you have got True and True (score difference is 2, what is > 1), this Boolean formula is equal to True, that means your trigger will be fired.
When you combine with And operator then all partial results must be True, to give you full results as True.
Using Or operator gives you True result when at least one partial result is True.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boolean_algebra
You can replace True to 1, and False to 0, then And Boolean operator is in algebra like * (multiplication), so 1 * 0 = 0 (False), 1 * 1 = 1 (True), 0 * 0 = 0 (False)

I'm having an hard time figuring out how to use "ScoreDifference" criteria correct parameters. i.e. Is "=1";">=2" and "<=3" etc. accepted or only "True" and "False" ? Can I use it with "MatchTime=" or "MatchTime>" in the same line ? i.e. "MatchTime>45 And ScoreDifference>1" ? Thanks for all your precious help, Stefan.

Croatia beat Argentina 3 – 0 at World Cup in Russia.
What were My Tipsters selections for this match?
16 tipsters selected Argentina, 5 tipsters Croatia, and 5 ones the Draw.
If you filtered Tipsters by ranking <= 10, and by positive “All Time Roi” you would get 3 tipsters from which two selected Croatia as winner selection.
Public voted 55.12% for Argentina and 27.31% for Croatia win.

Simply brilliant. Thanks alot.

Click to input text box, for StartCriteria or StopCriteria, in the right side of the input box appears button […], click on it and Criteria Editor appears, enter your criteria and click on OK button.
Now you can see that Criteria Editor created text representation of your formula, so if you can type criteria formula by text input then you can do so with exact format Criteria Editor uses.
Corneliu
In this new version of the "FootballBot", what formats should be used on the "Start" and "Stop" fields ? One has to input the whole criteria or just the values ? i.e. to start at the 5th minute if the score is not 0-0 and score difference <2 and to stop at the 80th minute if the score is not 0-1 or 0-2 and score difference >=2 ? Thanks alot Stefan
