Thanks for confirming, that means inplay it will take 2 seconds to get a sub £1 bet into the market unless you have an unmatched bet in the market.

Oh that spec should be fine, you shouldn't be getting anywhere near 100% CPU with that. Still worth checking though to make sure nothing else on the PC is killing it (virus protection/malware checkers etc).

We've seen the betfair API pulsing one slow update every three or four calls today, but again it hasn't hurt the P&L.

The only comms setting that's been removed is the data request limiter (as betfair don't charge for calls above 20 per second now). You can still control all the other refresh rates and tune how Bet Angel reacts to a slow request.

Oh and we removed the big red 'R' comms reset icon, because that isn't necessary anymore.

Bet Angel Connection Smoothing has been very useful in dealing with these occasional slow repsonses, so I wouldn't turn that off. A setting of 'Medium' is correct for most connections.
Many Thanks BA i will play with smothing

We've heard back from betfair following the poor performance of the API-NG over the weekend:

They will be making a change tomorrow morning that is said to improve the overall stability and consistency of API-NG response times.

They also plan to continue to make performance improvements as more customers migrate to API-NG.

So we'll all have to see how it performs tomorrow, ready for the real test that'll be next weekend.

Guys,
I have been having problems with this version.
I am finding that I have sessions where the PL to the left hand of each ladder on the ladder tab is incorrect and delayed by up to 2 minutes after each bet is matched.
Not sure if you have seen this issue yet?
I have raised a ticket through your support, with screenshot.
Thanks,
Martin

We believe we've identified the cause of this and have a fix.

Could anyone who has experienced slow Net Stake updates or the P&L lagging the matched bets please try this version and report back.

Morning
I moved back to the older version of Betangel for the time being...
Is this still the latest from betfair ie the switch over delayed till the 10th?
Thanks
regards

Yes the most recent date given by betfair is that the last day for API 6 will be 9th Nov, so everyone will need to use the latest version of Bet Angel by 10th Nov.

Betfair made some adjustments to their servers during the week and so far today API NG seems fine. Significantly better than last Saturday.

We're using v1.37.2 of Bet Angel Professional for testing and we'd recommend anyone using older versions of the beta to update to that build.

Is Betangel trader updated for the API NG too. Or its the same program as Betangel proffessional but without some features? If Its not updated will you do that with the same updates and performance as BAP v 1.37.2?

The entire product line of Bet Angel ( Basic, Trader, Professional ) has been updated for API NG and has been certified by betfair.

They are now out of beta and are available for download via our download page.

The performance enhancements described in this thread for Professional 1.37.2 have also been applied to the other products.
