The Stato del Mercato e API window displays the status of both the market loaded and the API and also shows the market overround.

Stato del Mercato e API showing last API call response time.

API Info
The number of API calls made in the last second will constantly be changing as new calls are made. In order to avoid Betfair Data Charges your total number of calls made per second must be 20 or below. This includes calls being made via the Betfair website or any other application. For more information about controlling the number of API calls being made by The Toy you should refer to the API Settings Manager section in Control Help.

In order to be alerted to the API running slow or some other connection issue causing calls to take longer to return than they should, the application warns of any call taking longer to respond than the API: Soglia d' Errore . {NB This value can be set by a menu option.} If the API: Soglia d' Errore is set to 1,000ms any API call taking longer than 1,000ms will be highlighted red as shown in the image below.

Stato del Mercato e API window showing an outstanding API Call

The first part of the number shows the total number of API calls that are over the API: Soglia d' Errore . In the image above there is one call over the API: Soglia d' Errore . The second part of the number displays how long the call has taken, in the image above the outstanding call has been waiting over 5 seconds and still hasn’t returned.

{NB Due to the way the application sends out API calls, even though a single call is delayed, it does not necessarily mean you will notice any problems in the running of the application. This is because the application sends parallel calls to the API for the same information. For more information see section MPC in the API Settings Manager control help.}

Generally speaking, if the number of overdue calls is 3 or more, you are experiencing connection or API issues.
