There is a problem affecting some users where the API call to fetch the data is taking too long and it times out and keeps trying

Gruss Software‏ @grusssoftware 4h4 hours ago

It is an issue with the API server not responding in an appropriate time

As its not affecting everyone, I would try rebooting everything including modem/router, leave switched off for 5 mins and try again

lets say I back a horse 5/1, can the gruss software lay off all the profit,one click the button and it lays off all
the profit at the falling price matching the money all the way down till the trade is complete or obviously the
price stops and goes the other way and it still completes the trade.
Report duffy August 19, 2017 11:46 PM BST
If you mean can you trade out by one click then yes, you can pre set a lay at a lower price and fire the lay in or you can use the level profit column which is there to continually show you your potential profit or loss should you click that button at that moment.

Obviously you could hit the button just as the market moves against and you therefore miss, but there is also an option whereby you can opt to fire a bet at a given number of ticks above what is currently in the level profit column which in effect is giving you a buffer zone.
Report roadrunner46 August 19, 2017 11:56 PM BST
not interested in level profit, that would be the enemy of my trade, so I put lay up for 1k at 1.70 and I fire off
the bet at 2.00, it will automatically lay everything off at that price 1.70, it will over ride people trying to back
the horse at a lower price. so in effect the trade will be completed all at that price.
Report duffy August 20, 2017 12:18 AM BST
If you instruct it to lay the 1k at 1.7, provided it gets there that's what it will do whilst the customers are there to take it all of course, if someone came in trying to back it at 1.5, they'd get your 1.7, that's if you're starting whilst it's at 2 and heading down.

If you fired the bet whilst it was already sub 1.7, you'd get matched at lower of course.

Hi,

Around 6pm on 19-Aug-2017 Betfair added a new soccer market that has unexpected characters in the API data feed that our software was not able to handle.
The result of this caused the software to get stuck trying to load the market data.
We have released a new version that can handle this problem.
This new version was previously being Beta tested by some users as it contains new features.
You can read about the new features in the following post:-
http://www.gruss-software.co.uk/forum/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=9763
The software should auto update to this new version but if it doesn't then uninstall via Windows Control Panel and then install via the following link:-

Out of interest, does the auto-updater work for anybody?  It never has for me....

I've been away for a few days,so just uploaded the new 38j version. It's got the TO and SL with red crosses,and PS and OS with red ticks. Is this how it's supposed to be? I've read the gruss forum threads,but it's a bit gobbled**** to me. Seems to be running ok as it is,but yes,there are big(no liquidity) spaces,and its showing lots of £1 bets(in-running).
Report Willie Shafter. August 20, 2017 2:50 PM BST
The major change in this version is price and order streaming. Streaming is enabled by default and can be disabled in general preferences. Streaming can also be toggled on and off by clicking "PS" and "OS" in the status bar at the top of the screen.

The prices are updated as before according to the refresh rate you set or alternatively you can tick "Full stream" in betting options. This option is available just above where you enter the refresh rate. Prices will then be updated as soon as received. Bets are always updated as soon as new data received.

There are also special Excel triggers to enabled/disable streaming which can be entered in cell Q2. Their names are self explanatory. They are as follows:-

PRICE-STREAM-ON
PRICE-STREAM-OFF
ORDER-STREAM-ON
ORDER-STREAM-OFF
ALL-STREAM-ON
ALL-STREAM-OFF
