Bot Placing An Actual Bet From A 'Simulation'

Hi Rade,
I wondered if this has happened before anywhere - I looked at my Betfair Account today and noticed a strange anomaly where I lost £103 I a market with no other losses around and no profits made elsewhere.
I checked back at the bot which is in simulation mode and it has recorded this exact same bet in its log. Therefore it can only stand to reason that this 'simmed' bet has actually made it onto the exchange. Is this common? - Obviously I do not want to run any simulations that could actually make it onto the exchange so how would I prevent it happening again?
Many thanks
Ryan

Was the "Simulated"-flag set on that bet?
I've simulated huge number of bets over couple of years and I've never seen such thing happening.

Hi Ryan,
Please post screenshots of all your settings, placed bets (including bets history View->Bets History), loaded markets and we will check it all. In past, it has never happened that bot in simulation mode places real bet so it is probably issue with your settings.

Rade

Hi Rade,
I will as soon as I get a chance, The bot is still in sim mode and to my knowledge no other bet has been placed off of it. - The info may take a day or two as Just found out my mother has terminal Cancer so in and out of hospital most days.
Many Thanks
Ryan
