Market status stuck at dormant
« on: 31 Mar 2026, 18:17 »
I just wondered if anyone else has experienced and issue with this today. 

I have triggers that only place bets, when the market moves to either at the post, going behind, or under orders. This has worked fine for me for at least a year until today, where I noted it was not placing any bets.

I reviewed the logs and saw that the status was not reaching the correct status, so I watched the next few races and saw that the market was always just showing as dormant. I just wanted to check if anyone else uses this and if they saw the issue to find out if its just an issue for myself or something with Betfair itself not passing the info over.

I guess I will have to wait and see what tomorrow brings and work out how easy it would be to remove it.

As my compound trigger has evolved over time I find that there is over twenty different parts of the trigger that use it and so its not like I can just remove it from one place and so will take this as  a warning and that it is time to rewrite the tigger now I have it how I want it to rationalise on repeats like this so it just calls it once - that will teach me to be lax!!!!!!

I have the same.

The ongoing horse races are still dormant. The market is constantly refreshing, I can see the price fluctuations, and everything seems fine. However, the market status remains dormant, and the triggers aren't working.

 

Please note, BetFair is seems to be currently OFFLINE
