See below for the betting delays by sport which are added to guard against toxic flow from the bookmaker’s side. It is effectively protection for the bookmaker. As order matching is done after the betting delay, errors observed in the past due to order cancellations within the betting delay will now be avoided. Delays are set first at the league level. If there is no league level setting, delays are set at the sport level. If there is no sport level setting, we use a default of 8 seconds.Documentation Index
