[SOLVED] Botlab lost 10,000 mana yesterday, can you point to where the loss came from?
No bounty left

Yesterday this bot lost about 10,000 mana. I only noticed today, so it's too late to use the 1D Profit sort to see where the loss came from.

I assume the loss came from a market or two that turned against me rather than 3rd party exploitation, but I'll award 500 mana to whoever can actually find the markets which the loss can be attributed to.

Oh, this was me. When I had a negative balance months ago, your bot kept betting against me. So I squeezed it for liquidity in long-term markets giving it large positions, before it finally learned to stop.

You'll see more of these as those long-term markets suddenly resolve against it.

This is a fun mystery!

My best theory is

Botlab has a -1.9k loss here:

But I expect before the last minute spike, which happened just as Botlab's profits dropped, that it instead had a large profit which was lost.
