that just confirms what I said earlier: we are very 'lucky' to have polling.
Betfair Down / Betfair site crash
I don't use streaming as I see no benefit to me of using it and it is always having issues, I can see benefits for those on limited data plans and running automation but for manual trading it seems nothing but trouble and I am yet to see anyone explain why you should use it over polling unless in the above circumstances.
200ms refresh is more than enough for me, I can't react quicker than that so no point using a faster refresh and just seeing noise.

at least they dont happen with the regularity of several years back where betfair would just grind to a halt every saturday round about 3 oclock or just crash, every single saturday without fail.
i just hope they are not heading back that level of crap again.
