Dear Gavin,
Happy New Year.
I note that in play betting is illegal in Australia so we are restricted to trading 'pre start' only. I have two questions regarding the impact of this on the operation of your software;
1. Does your Bot operate regardless of the local restrictions around betting/trading durations? I.e. does the bot STOP operating when Betfair is no longer taking orders? I'm interested to u understand how the bot may manage this complication in the Australian market.
2. If the bot does work in the Australian jurisdiction, can it achieve more than one tick leading up to close of bets? By this I mean, if the bot is activated 5 minutes before the race start, does it trade right up to bet cancellation and clock multiple ticks or does it close after it achieves one tick only?
Any assistance with this would be greatly appreciated.
Kind Regards,
Simon Crawley
