It's now 10:13 and the most recent LC publication has a timestamp of 2014-08-21 06:01:03. It there a problem with LC or P2P-Picks feeding?

[Thu Aug 21 10:02:49 PDT 2014]: No rise detected. Aborting main script.
I probably missed the rise because of starting looking at 28 seconds after the hour. By then perhaps it was already loaded. I've changed the script to start at 1 second after the hour. However, you can see that people are buying up paper quite quickly between 28s after the hour and 1 minute after the hour (the first moment loans are seeable in the CSV file). See my "asymmetrical timing" thread for more details.
Hmm. So the CSV is populating on the hour now?
I've started my script at 1 minute before the hour now. Hopefully this is rectified. Stuff like this happens.
I just didn't see much this run, but it appears to have caught the load as much as possible.

I knew I had to hurry at feeding time but this is a bit over the top. 181 new loans was not a bad load. 43% of all new loans are gone in 30secs and almost half in 2minutes. WOW!
It seems the API has the speed advantage now. I'll have to adjust my processes to use it this weekend. Sorry for the hiccups!
Appreciate what you can do to get more loans.
At 6:00AM I saw 65 loss minimizer and 5 profit maximizer
At 10:00AM I'm not seeing any.
Hope this does not wreck you weekend ;-)

I shut it down until I could fix it. Let's see what happens at 2 p.m.
Got 24 new loans at 2:00PM - including 6 5% max profit - was able to convert 4 of them.
Looks like the capture time was 2:00:32 rather than the typical x:01:01 time.
Kudos for the adjustment!

Yes, it's pulling from the LC API now. I still think it may not be the fastest way (I also did not convert on those same two loans, which is saying something). Of course, there is some expected level of non-convert which is random, because LC does not want us hitting their API more than 1/s.
Thanks for the kudos, because it was quite a bit of work.
Were there really no loans for both LC PMax and LC LMin at Thursday's 6pm feeding? (8/28/2014)
According to:
https://lendingrobot.com/#/resources/latest/LCThere were only 4 loans total in the feeding. Not sure what went on.

True story. My system didn't even run due to lack of a worthwhile loan drop.
There were a few Date value errors in one of early CSV files.
However, this is a good situation for me to asses "LC without P2P-Picks" scenario.
There seems to be many other high-speed LC systems out there since the FundedAmount on many of the loans are high already within a few seconds of the drop.
My system picked this loan (FICO 805, Grade D2, Rate 16.29):
Suck is too strong. I'm of the opinion that redoing the underwriting (a) might gain you 100bps if you're fortunate and (b) it's protective against major and sudden shifts in borrower quality.

No publication for 10am and 2pm. First time I've seen back-to-back missed P2P-Picks publications.
LC changed drop time. I have a job.
While I'd hope the intent of this thread is to point out something Bryce may have missed, it seems in inconsiderate to me to continue a thread of times that P2P-Picks screwed up when it is a free service for retail. Just my two cents
