ListMarketBook - "Available to back"?

[v-cut]

Hi,

Can someone please tell me how to get the data for "Available to back" (price/size) with the ListMarketBook?

I only manage to get the "LastPriceTraded" which isnt enough, and it seems to me that I've tested all combinations of price/order/match projections but nothing solves my problem.

All tips highly appriciated!

Hi v-cut,

you need to set priceProjection to have a priceData value which includes 'EX_BEST_OFFERS' or 'EX_ALL_OFFERS' (or both), You don't say which language you are using, so I can't be specific on HOW you do that, but you need to end up sending JSON which looks like this:

'{"priceProjection":{"priceData":["EX_BEST_OFFERS"]},"marketIds":["1.115592757"]}'

An array of PriceSize data will then be returned with each runner under the 'ex' key (for ExchangePrices), and then the 'availableToBack' key. I can't easily get a dump of the JSON response ('cause it's gzipped), but in perl a returned 'runner' record looks like this:

{
 'adjustmentFactor' => '0.3',
 'totalMatched' => '0.69',
 'status' => 'ACTIVE',
 'ex' => {
          'availableToBack' => [
                                {
                                 'size' => '2.79',
                                 'price' => '170'
                                },
                                {
                                 'price' => '100',
                                 'size' => '10.81'
                                },
                                {
                                 'price' => '48',
                                 'size' => '2.46'
                                }
                               ],
          'availableToLay' => [
                               {
                                'price' => '880',
                                'size' => '2.18'
                               },
                               {
                                'size' => '2',
                                'price' => '990'
                               }
                              ],
          'tradedVolume' => []
         },
 'selectionId' => 8345277,
 'lastPriceTraded' => '200',
 'handicap' => '0'
}

Hi Merlin,

Thanks for your help, thought I tried everything but probably missed something in the Json, now it returns the data I need.
