Hi
All ok here..
Im using both practice mode and live today doing some comparisons..both refreshing equally as fast..

I did notice something strange though..if you look at the screen shot, it displayed odds of 1010?

regards
Peter
(PS Not real profit (I wish!) just practice mode for now!

Alpha - Just double check your settings (inc Mode), you will probably find something..(or close down and reopen)
(That wasn't a real P&L unfortunately, just practice mode, the reds have been equally impressive! I just wish I had the balls to try some of them!)

Odds are pulled in from Betfair at the same speed in both modes, matching is obviously done locally so that may feel slightly different. But that's about it.

Something is wrong on my live mode settings somewhere then, its fustrating making big greens on Practice mode with a nice strategy, it works on live grening quarter of my profits amounts get matched but lagging its a put off
