Hi

I was practice trading the pre race horse market today. I am trying to learn the ropes at the moment. I noticed in several races the prices suddenly jumped suddenly in one direction, seemed to jump over several ticks in the market (5-10) ticks. So it wasnt like a quick drift or steam it was more like the system slowed down momentarily or something. Could this be API or a server issues?. I never lost my own connection during this happening. I was thinking at the time this would be really worrying if i was using large amounts of money and the price was so volatile
thanks for any assistance

I had the same expirience today - was very hard and frustrating to trade.

I also noticed some stickiness around 17 (I'm on dedicated fiber optic, so I guess this wasn't the problem).

Was recording the whole session, so I can put a video online that shows exactly what you describe...

The markets were not very good today, post Cheltenham hangover.

Here are a couple of situations that you describe :

I didn't find the situation where the price shoots down for cca. 6 ticks and the next second 12 ticks up, but I remember it happened during the day :(

Any ideas what's causing this?

Yes this is exactly what I was experiencing. I dont know how the price would ab end like that, seemingly to skip over prices without being filled in between. But yeah, thats a great example
Thanks for sharing !
