Issue date for backtesting

With the impending http://www.lendacademy.com/bryce-mason-p2p-picks-direct-lending-investments/" class="bbc_link" target="_blank">shutdown of P2P-Picks, I've decided to go back and design my own filters for LC and Prosper using NSR.

My question: What range of issue dates do you guys use when backtesting on LC and Prosper?

My initial thought is to use 10/14/2008 (LC) and 07/15/2009 (Prosper) as the starting issue date, as those are the dates of SEC approval. Or perhaps I should choose a later date like 01/01/2010 to lessen the impact of the earlier years (the wild wild west years) of P2P.
For ending issue date, I'm torn between 07/01/2014 or 10/01/2014 to allow the younger notes to age and possibly default. Also, note that the current datasets include originations through 03/31/2015.

PS I primarily invest in 36-month notes.

Thanks in advance for any feedback.
