[Removed - Rant]

Here's my complaint/question and is anyone else experiencing this issue?

I have been with you for a very long time, perhaps as far back as the mid 80's. I am an avid stock trader through Schwab, and suddenly, you downloaded stock prices after the market closes (and later than the 20 minute delay you have, your prices on at least 20% of my holdings are incorrect. The next business day morning I go in to my Quicken and compare what it says the closing price was on XYZ stock and invariably it differs from what Schwab says. Why? This just started about a few months ago and I have to tell you it is VERY frustrating for someone like me.

    Note that this is a user to user forum, so "you" isn't Quicken, it's fellow users.

    Are you running Premier or above? If so, check the setting at Edit > Preferences > Investing > Real time quotes. People have observed that if this option is checked, strange values sometimes get downloaded, especially when the exchanges are closed.

    Another recent issue is that today's price is sometimes copied to yesterday. This seems to apply to ETFs.

    Does either of these situations describe your problem?

    There also seems to be some quotes downloaded that are a result of "after hours trading".
    The stock exchange closure isn't the end of all trading.

    No kidding, I know that. But your third party provider has really gotten bad. I just had to change the quotes of 16 of my stocks

    Real time quotes is not clicked. I need to find another investment tracker, this is driving me crazy. I have a LOT of stocks, am an avid trader, and have been for many years. And this BS just started within the past two months.

    But your third party provider has really gotten bad.

    Again, this site is not Quicken Support. You're not speaking directly to Quicken Support, the development team, or Quicken management here; it's just fellow users trying to help each other, with assistance from a handful of Quicken moderators.
