some results not being logged

[laffo16]

I cant figure out why only some of my results are being logged. As it is a script which fires my bets in, at first i thought it might just be the unmatched bets, but having checked over my results from betfair page, i see that some results havent been logged. My script operates as follows:

- place bet into market at -1 offset from current odds
- wait until bet has finished pending. then get the Ref ID
- store this ref ID on a different sheet for future ference
- load next market (Q2:-1)

i have left BA logging all day, havent disabled the logging at any point. any ideas how i can fix this? This is on the uk greyhound market. I think i can recall placing a bet but no bet log was placed in "MyBets" once or twice before but didnt think much of it at the time.

If a bet is placed matched or unmatched in to the market, once the pending result has returned a Ref ID, will the bet at this moment be logged in the "MyBets"?

if the market is changed while the bet remains unmatched, will the result still be logged?

MyBets will not list the bet until the following refresh. Also the Excel refresh is triggered by price refreshes and MyBets mirrors the bets manager, the bets manager is updated independently of the prices refreshes so it cannot be guaranteed that MyBets will be updated even on the next refresh if the bets refresh receives a slow response. Basically MyBets should be the same as the bets manager so if the bet is in the bets manager when Excel is updated then MyBets will be updated.

so both matched and unmatched bets are placed in the "MyBets" but their could be a second or so delay before this occures. Today i will delay my script (8 secs) from jumping to the next market so soon after its bet is placed to prehaps give some extra time for MyBets to update if that is the case.
