Hi,

How do I get a Betfair graph for an historical event, such as a football match that happened yesterday? Like the graphs that Peter puts on his blog that seem to cover the whole of the event? Or is it not available after the event has finished/closed?

Thanks,
Alex

It isn't available once the market is closed I am afraid.

What about historical prices? In a video I saw that Peter had a spreadsheet with prices in 30 second increments for a whole football match. Can that only be achieved with Betfair API privileges?

You can buy that information but it soon becomes expensive (think it was fracsoft or someone who sell it, not Bet Angel). Bet Angel used to sell a thing that captured data in excel but BF stopped them from selling it. That doesn't stop you the individual or Peter on his own from doing it they just can't sell it. Perhaps someone can provide a spreadsheet that allows this to be done?

If so I would be interested.

If you look in the spreadsheet section there is lots of discussion on how to capture data and some spreadsheets as well.
