My biggest fear of trading now has to be the crashing of the API or Betfair collapsing and holding every bet as prisoner (no traders are allowed to leave until we open again) and if you are open and your traded selection go,s in your stuffed
A lot of people have Betdaq as back up but there is a great feature on BA that can safeguard you. MG uses it a lot and I took his advice in using it period, it does get ou out of crash trouble. When I have a trade running in my favour I put the closing position in and select take sp all. When the race jumps your position closes sometimes with a nice profit or a small loss so if the selection go,s in.you have a nice profit or a smaller loss than your original open liability position was. It would be good if BA technical staff were to put an option in (checked box type setting) on take sp all once you put in your closing trading bet, or is this within the current version that I have missed
Any opinions, anyone else use take SP before the off
