Over 90% underwritten, but 0 'Units For Sale'! Give the underwriters a chance -- this loan drew down only yesterday! Maybe the underwriters don't work at the weekend? In the meantime, if you want to invest in this loan, you need to set up your AI mandate and put some money into your account -- but first make sure none of your other AI mandates are going to use the available cash before the underwriters start offering the Carma*** units!

Or perhaps they are being held back until the new website goes live so that we will have something to try and break the website with to play with

My AI picked up a £20 unit at 10.11 this morning. Well short of my set target but it's a start. Will we have to reset and re-enter all out AI targets once the new site goes live or will it read what's already there and carry it all over, for both increasing and decreasing positions? Maybe that's one for chris. |

Maybe that's one for chris. I'm currently still deciding, would be good to have some feedback. In some ways I'd like a clean break as it's a new system and people will likely want to use it slightly differently to AI. Equally though it's trivial to migrate the lender's settings and there's certainly a case to be made for not requiring all lenders to log in and re-set up all their preferences from scratch. I'll probably end up doing the latter and migrating settings unless there's a convincing argument otherwise - either on here or internally.

I imagine it's too difficult or clumsy to have us decide that the new site. As in, it asks us if we want them carried over when we first log in? In one sense it's good to review everything from time to time; I mean all your AI settings, but some Lenders may just have done that and don't want to do it again.

My gut feeling is that the number of people who are likely to want to change lots of settings in one go are few and far between.

Whatever happens, please ensure lenders have access to the information that previously described their Auto Invest configurations - I would not forgive you for forcing me to re-read the credit reports and re-evaluate all the loans in order to re-set-up all the dozens of AI targets I have  . Without having seen the new site, it's not so easy to give an informed view of which is best - but my inclination would be to migrate them.

I'm for all my settings to be carried over - as long as the hamsters are fed the correct mix and get it right! I shall certainly check everything after THE EVENT. |

Agreed. We need access to all our old AI settings, but chances are the new system will be significantly different we want to change them. Even if the new site is specified as a superset of the functionality of the old one, we might have set things up to work around old site bugs or just for old site liquidity.
It's no secret that the new site will perform portfolio ballancing (if not any better optimisation) and my guess (from doing such things myself) is that this is going to take a while to settle down. Long term it should be good, many lenders will use it and as it's easier to use we'll have many more lenders and much more liquidity. In the short term there will be bumps and if I were AC I'd pass on all the decisions as to how to ride over these bumps onto us punters.

As documented in the CWT 121 thread, AI just sold about £2k for me when I asked it to buy £2k. Earlier it cost me £10k in CWT 121 - so I'm not best pleased. (note we have thread mutation, CWT is not Carmarthenshire Wind Turbine). It seems likely to me that the stress of moving to a new system has severely broken AI, so I'm going to delete all my AI mandates. For all I know, it could sell my hard earned portfolio leaving me in cash and that would cost me a lot in interest and risk balancing to make up. chris, if you can track things down and fix things then please do so, but otherwise I'd just switch off AI now and move the new site ASAP. |

The code for AI hasn't been changed in weeks. If you PM me your email address that you use with the site I'll investigate.

Sod it. It was much worse than documented above, I just looked and there was £18k of my CWT up for sale. Luckily I could buy it all back at no cost, but really, I can't even trust deleting the AI mandates to stop the system messing with my portfolio right now.
