Adding a listing - will it impact my original listing?

I've had a great listing for 5 years. I achieved Superhost each year and it is booked 90% of the time. I decided to convert a longterm

rental of mine to Airbnb and launched this month. It is getting some traction. However, my original listing has dropped to 16% occupancy! I am not getting any bookings. I dropped my daily minimum and any 2 night requirements. Is is possible by second listing impacted the algorithm and that is why I am not getting bookings? My reviews are all 5 star. The drop off happened right when introduced a second property. I appreciate any advice. Should I delete the new listing and create a different profile to market it??

@At-Home-In-The-Heights0 the rules say that you are only allowed one account but I guess if there are two of you then you could have one account each but Airbnb will notice if you share phone numbers or email addresses.

I do not know the answer to your question, but I have seen one or two other hosts post about a similar experience in the last few weeks, so there could be something odd going on with the algorithm.
