Troubleshooting / Re: Market status stuck at dormant

But how can I set -1 in the race_status condition? I see that the 'Market's / Race Status' is just a list of selected states.

Will Condition: Selection's / Trigger Expression / race_status / is_equal to / -1 works?

Hi
Yes that is the condition.

Ok. Thank you MarkV for confirmation. Is any possibility to check in MF PRO 8 if this functionality in Betfair works? I'm thinking about modify trigger, to make another action IF Betfair sucks (for example bet before scheduled start not before actual start in this case)

The other software forum shows that Betfair are aware of the problem, so hopefully it will be fixed soon.

At the moment race_status for horse races is showing as -1
But if race_status is working it should be between 0 and 21

so you can make conditions to do your other action if race_status is equal to -1

Hi
Other API software forums are showing similar problems, they have reported the issue to Betfair.

I am not sure that this is an issue with Marketfeeder itself, as I don't see the status within betfair either (and I think they did use to show it there also) - I am wondering if they have stopped providing it.

I will have to clone my trigger and start a rewrite - I had these in to protect against betting too soon, when racing was delayed etc, but in the absence of this will have to revert back to just betting before expected race start. If it reappears I can always start using the existing one again.

The same problem. 

Race status (over list of horses) is working ok - but this one shows 'Idle' status only before start and 'In-Play' after, but race status in the top line on right side disappeared today at all!

I need race status 'At The Post', "Going Behind' or "Under Orders" to place bet.

Not even showing Dormant today.  I removed the trigger that checked if status was At the Post or Gong Behind, so everything else works fine.  I hope this isn't further evidence of attrition of the software.
