extremely cheeky question

[dou jyr]

hi

i'm thinking of trying to write my own vb.net app long similar lines to yours, but tweaking it to reflect my own trading style and markets.

can you please tell me how you get around using the api? i'm sure once i cross that little (!!!) conceptual hurdle i can proceed.

regards

You will need to use a language that has a component for accessing http (eg. httpWebRequest in VB.Net). You will also need to examine the requests and responses that Betfair's web server expects so that you can replicate them (http://www.iewatch.com is very good for this purpose).

Good luck

many thanks.

nothing like reinventing the wheel ......
