Checking Results in Practice Mode

[ShaunWhite]

How do you capture the time of bet match? Does this measure therefore also include the time it takes for Betfair to communicate bet placement back to your PC?

Betfair timestamp the acknowledgment message. Ie the time it became active in the market.
Ties back to not being able to cancel a bet until it's got a ref# to cancel.

This post seems to have gone off track, the guy only wanted to track his P/L in test mode.

It's very much on track. Wouldn't want him to take practice mode numbers as anything more than indicative. This explains why rather than leave him guessing why.

Thanks again for the info. To what fraction of a second do they timestamp?

Millisecond.

Thanks. I'll try this macro. So there's nothing embedded in Bet Angel that summarizes the P&L?

Not as far as I know. Or at least I hope not, or I would have wasted my time on that spreadsheet.

Unfortunately the macro is not working - getting some debugging errors when I try to run it. Did you have to make any adjustments?
I'm using the latest BetAngel version, and I have macros activated.

I've customised the spreadsheet specifically to my needs so haven't used the original for a while. Somebody else in that thread was having problems, but when I've got time, I'll take a look and see if I can fix it.
