Bet taken or lapsed
« on: 10 Jul 2014, 13:32 »
Hi. I'm testing a new trigger and it works well on test mode.
When I change to real mode it gives me an error "BET_TAKEN_OR_LAPSED" when placing bets.

Anyone got this error before? Thanks

That sounds as though a trigger is trying to cancel a bet that has already been matched.

hi
sorry, but you have to remeber, that test mode WILL match at the current price.
real/live betting , betfair will match at the best price that is equal or more than your set price.
so live betting you need to ask for a price, maybe 3 ticks more/less (depending on back or lay) of your required price.

I guess that's it. Hi Tiago, were you able to make the changes so far?

You were right. In real mode the bets take longer to be matched. I was cancelling a non existing bet. I had to give it a longer time to repeat the trigger again. Thanks ! ;)

tiago, try delaying test bets by 2-3 seconds, to make their matching time more realistic.
Always try your triggers in Test Mode before switching to real money!
