hi there.. this feature has been requested MANY times in the past and for various reasons, the BA team have been hit with the licence issue of using historical data. However, there are ways around this and I really wish the team would take a look at forming a creative workaround. here's a poll that I started on the topic. Add any further thoughts both here and on the post to help try and get this moving: viewtopic.php?f=20&t=11983

This should be done easily. Just downloading the manually prevent history file from BetFair and importing it into BetAngel and test your own system. This would be huge step forward and there should not be any licence issues to doing this way.
