Volume not stable on the ladder screen
« on: 19 Sep 2024, 13:56 »
I just noticed that the volume on each price is flickering on the ladder screen (see attachments). 
It moves back and fourth every 2-3 seconds. My account is funded, I generate daily commission, I am not on VPN nor Virtual machine. 
The screenshots are from a horse racing and from a UCL game so it is not sport specific.

Please go to BetFair site -> account and check your account has been switched by BetFair to "delayed" mode.

Where should I see that?
I looked on my account details and all places possible and see nothing saying delayed.
I also noticed some weird behavior (total volume switching) when I did not have funds in my account but once I funded it it stabilized.
Now it is just on the ladder and it is for distant prices from last matched price.

Hi
This article gives some insight into what it could be. Also in MFP check the Market Info screen (the I top left on a market screen). If your account has been restricted you will see some text in red saying data is delayed. If this is the case and you have not had an email from Betfair you need to contact Betfair support to understand the reason they restricted your account and give them some assurance you will not let it happen again etc. and ask them to un-restrict.

The weird part is that I do not see the market as delayed (see new attachment). 
I posted on the developer forum since I did not find any support on their site and I am still looking for a feedback. 
I read the article suggested and I did not do any of the possible offences. 
The only possible thing is sometimes my VPN was active (still UK location no other country) but now I turn it off so no VPN nor Virtual machine.

OK
My suggestion is to log on to the Betfair site and see if these volumes are 'normal' there or displaying the same problem as in the ladder.
Then in MFP try opening a new settings profile with default settings (don't copy or clone an existing profile). See if this fixes it.

I have done that and still same behavior.
Comparing with the Betfair site, the jumpy volumes (the one showing for short period of time) are the correct ones, the other ones are not.

I think I got to the bottom of it.
When you select the option "Load traded volume for all prices" it starts to be jumpy. 
Once I unchecked that the volumes stabilized and are accurate.

Thank you for all your help!!

Unfortunately not all triggers are possible to implement. Sorry for inconveniences. Your payment has been reversed.

Why couldnt you have got back to me explaining that it needed to be modified instead of keeping me waiting for ten weeks ignoring my tickets then canceling my order

 

Please note, BetFair is seems to be currently OFFLINE
