Version 7.1.0.6
« on: 02 Nov 2013, 21:02 »
Improvements

New functionality for importing selections data

We have added an ability to import text and number values for selections together with their names, from a text file. The existing function “Import selections for auto-trading” will now allow you to assign certain values to the selections you are importing (just like you do if you use the “Import custom cells” from Excel). This is great news for someone who is using a tipster’s service yet does not have Excel installed.
The manual’s chapter “Auto-Trading - Import selections for auto-trading" has been properly updated. You will also find a new chapter under "Selection Variables", as you can access the imported values through a trigger variable imported_{index}.

New countries in Market Locator

We have added the following countries to the search list in the Market Locator:
•   Angola
•   Benin
•   Cape Verde
•   Djibouti
•   Equatorial Guinea
•   Ethiopia
•   French Guiana
•   Guadeloupe
•   Guinea
•   Guyana
•   Macau
•   Mauritania
•   Mauritius
•   Micronesia
•   Mozambique
•   Papua New Guinea
•   Saint Kitts And Nevis
•   Saint Lucia
•   Saint Vincent And the Grenadines
•   Samoa
•   San Marino
•   Sao Tome And Principe
•   Seychelles
•   Trinidad And Tobago
•   Yemen

Bugs Fixed

1.   The setting “By default all selections are inactive for auto-trading did not always deactivate selections in a newly added market.
2.   The trigger condition “Market’s Score has changed/has not changed” was not working properly.
3.   Certain bets could be missing from the Account Statement if it (the statement) contained just one new bet and if there were other bets settled and recorded previously. As a consequence, certain markets could be considered “not settled” in real mode, when in fact they were.
4.   When importing selections from a text file, the program did not report how many selections have been imported.
5.   The setting “Clear previously imported cells” has changed its behaviour. It will now make the program delete all custom cells assigned to all selections in all markets before importing new ones from Excel. Moreover, the old imported cells will also be cleared from the corresponding market “queryxxxx” sheets.
6.   If some horses were withdrawn from a race after a user started monitoring a market, they were not displayed in the “Market Information” window.
7.   You now have an option to receive an email message if a program has to close down due to numerous failed attempts to re-login to BetFair following a lost API session. Check this setting in the “Look & Feel” tab:

Send email alert upon the frequent losses of API session.

Please note: in order to make this setting work you will need to configure Email Settings appropriately.

Hi Oxa
There is an error message in the Program Log each time the program is started:
“Error while loading events. OK”
This occurs even when no events are loaded, and also does the same on a fresh Profile.

Small point – Locator files supplied with the new release do not include the newly listed countries and might need updating to include them.

After the update my MF begin to close by itself several times a day, so I prefer to downgrade it... Could be a bug?

Thank you Mark, will have a look at it.

Update: regarding the error message - ignore it for the moment. BetFair returns OK where it used to return an empty string, so the program logs this as an error message. Will remove it next time.

You can still use the old version - we kept the link to it.
Do you use the automated market search with a Market Locator template?

If you turn it off, the crashes will stop. I (and not only I) am working really hard on getting to the root of this problem, unfortunately it is still not possible to find out in which particular circumstances the crash occurs, it is not possible to reproduce it with a guarantee.
I do apologise for this inconvenience, but for now I can only admit that this bug with the automated market search exists.

I am using the Market Locator all time, I great tool for automatic identify and load markets.

One way to come around the bug would be to implement a possibility to automatic restart the software when it crashes (for me it is that the software not placing any bets).

I am using the 7.0047 version.

hi Oxa,

I noticed Calcutta is not on the list. A cricket match is happening there at
the moment.
Is it too late to add ?

Hi
I think that will be included in India. See screenshot.
If you find a non-listed country (or tournament) is missing in the Locator list, you can always find it in the event tree and add it manually.

hi Oxa,
Calcutta is not mentioned and although it is indeed India, it is not finding it.
Not sure what you meant by "finding it in the event tree and adding it manually"
Are we able to say add Calcutta ourselves ? if so, how ?
Thanks

hi Mark,

India V West Indies, Betfair show on their site it is being played
in Calcutta but that is an error as the first test was played there.
The second test will be held on 14-Nov at Mumbai cricket ground.
It appears the location where the matches are being played need
to be added to the mlocator as was the case recently with the
Caribean Islands/West Indies.
Both Calcutta and Mumbai and perhaps other grounds in India need adding.
Thanks

Hi
Can't see any problem.
The attached screenshots show the "Event Tree" and Locator.
1st Test is of course finished so will not show.
