HowardF... can you take out the functioninality that when you change the USD-Values that with every key entered the number is redrawn and the cursor set at the last place? It makes it hard to change anything especially substantially changes.




I use an open source money formatter script that causes this.  I'll look into making it optional.

And it might make sense, if different swap offers created have the same percentage, to merge those offers into one offer. This way the fragmentation of offers could be lowered. They are in the same place anyway with the same percent.

This wouldn't effect the fragmentation significantly to be honest, since most small amounts will all get taken as one loan, and returned at the same time to go back into the loan queue.  Besides, fragmentation is a good thing.  it keeps loans always coming due, which keeps money always going back out on loan, which is how this bot manages to always take advantage of suddent rate spikes. I've generally got anywhere between 200 - 400 loans out on my account, which means I'm always able to catch even 5 or 10 minute long spikes with at least a little loan.

Youre right with the fragmentation but often i see open swap offers that are offered at the exact same rate. Since they are added at the same moment they will most probably will taken in the same moment. But they will still show up as two even though they are the same rate and time. And they will end at the same time too.

Only thought it might be a bit easier to read though its not as important.

Regarding not swapped out USD. You might count them like Dollar-Minutes. Each amount of USD not lend out for some minutes will add to that account. Then one might be able to adjust the settings and lower that amount by checking the performance at the same time.

I think it would be a great tool to maximize profits.
