Real swift activity over last 24 hours on AM. No sooner units are listed, they disappear, even in very short term loans which have just weeks to run or those where there has always been a glutton of units available on AM.
I'm guessing there's been an influx on new entrants to AC who have been responsible for mopping up this excess. All very well for liquidity & a good opportunity to re balance ones portfolio, if needed

I wonder if there is any way to monitor the AM activity.
It looked mostly empty recently but it could have been active actually if loans were listed and then snapped up quickly (either manually or through AI)

It looked mostly empty recently but it could have been active actually if loans were listed and then snapped up quickly (either manually or through AI) I asked for this a while ago. It might seem unhelpful to be told of a train that's already left the platform, but actually it helps to know which loan parts are selling so rapidly that they are effectively invisible on the aftermarket rather than not being traded at all when deciding to release funds of ones own. chris has hinted that great things are yet to come so we must hope that this will be one of them, sooner or later.

All gone... just saw one unit of Boiler man No63 but now gone. I'm getting the feeling that units get 'shown' on the AM first for, say, 5minutes only then if it's not sold it's given to AI to find a buyer, which is often almost immediate. Then if there are no mandate buyers it goes back to the AM until sold or withdrawn from sale. Is anyone else noticing this or am I just imagining it, (which I think I must be)? I wonder if there is any way to monitor the AM activity. It looked mostly empty recently but it could have been active actually if loans were listed and then snapped up quickly (either manually or through AI) This thread does the monitoring a little, I think it's just a matter of time before we get a feed telling us how many thousands, millions are passing thru' it. As this will show how 'very liquid' trading in most stock is. |

That's interesting, can I be nosy and ask if you had AI mandates set to pick them up, Wrexham and Boiler? Obviously you don't have to answer this. I ask as, I put up for sale just a couple of Wrexham at about 1am and they sat there for a little while on the AM and then sold. I'm just trying to work out if chris is experimenting with a new way for selling units (my mad theory or suggestion is in the previous post) I wondering if it just a few units they go to the AM first then into the AI system.

I bought them manually. I did not have AI set up for either one.

I don't think so, previously I've listed a loan part for sale, manually, and as soon as I hit "Yes: Sell This", I was returned to a page saying "Your loan part will be listed on the market" and yet the totals indicated it was already sold as soon as it said that. No-one is that quick! So if there is an outstanding AI mandate, a sell is matched with a buy instantly. Or faster. Appearance on the human-readable aftermarket would be fleeting.

Yes I know you're right as I've had those mega fast messages too, where it seems the unit's been sold and the money's in you account even before your finger has stopped touching the the enter key! Maybe then this would be a nice way to handle sales, to gives the human finger a fighting chance... Chris did kinda say, I think, that he'd be experimenting.

Maybe then this would be a nice way to handle sales, to gives the human finger a fighting chance... Chris did kinda say, I think, that he'd be experimenting. Haven't released anything yet, so there's nothing new. AI is asynchronous but event driven and very fast. From when a loan unit is listed typically AI will react in a few tens of milliseconds, with the system then taking a further 100ms or so to process the transaction. If you were to somehow refresh the page in that 0.1 - 0.2s window then you would see the loan unit(s) listed on the screen. When there's a lot of activity that window may widen to a second or so as more happens in parallel congesting the system, but for the most part that's not an issue. In terms of how much activity we've had recently, loan parts offered for sale this past week have been a little sparse so the aftermarket has only handled around £100k.
