  • Hi,

    Quick question, hopefully. I have synchronised my computer clock with Betfair clock. Within my trigger I have set a user variable (bet_time) being now_time, recording the time the trigger conditions were met and a back bet placed.

    This then compares to the bm_backtime.

    In a recent example the bet_time was 21:58:55 and the bm_backtime (for the corresponding trigger/bet) was 21:58:52.

    The bet matched time was 3 seconds before the trigger time. It was definitely for the corresponding trigger/bet and clocks were synchronised. Any suggestions?

    Thanks
    Dan

  • Hi
    I tested this:

    If your set user variable action is a second action in your backing trigger, bet_time and bm_backtime will be the same.

    If your set user variable is a separate trigger with a condition trigger backing number of runs…, the difference in time between the 2 variables will be the duration of 1 refresh. This is because the bet_time trigger needs to wait 1 refresh to detect the backing trigger has executed.

  • Mark,
    Thanks for the reply. Now going back through my triggers and trying to simplify things as I think it has become over complicated whilst putting together.

  • I'm still trying to learn the ropes here though but using variable action as a second action worked for me.
