Hi there,

I am looking for a function that allows me count the number of transactions i have done in the last hour. I would appreciate your help since i dont want exceed the current 5000 transaction limit,.

Could anyone help me?

Best Regards

Is an interesting question if looking to 'throttle' bets to avoid hitting the limit, else you can just blow through the limit and handle things via the error code: 'TOO_MANY_INSTRUCTIONS'.

To begin with it would be good to define exactly what is considered a 'transaction' for the purposes of the transaction count? I can't find a definition in the docs but do vaguely remember stumbling across something that mentioned it included all bets even those un-fulfilled/cancelled etc?

I'm guessing you mean that you don't want to just keep a count of your transactions/times yourself but would like to query the API and be told your current count?

On a simplistic level maybe you could use listCurrentOrders for the prior hour with a simple count of the entries and then combine that with an examination entry by entry of the listClearedOrders for those placed within the last hour?
