How often does PortfolioPilot update security prices?
PortfolioPilot updates security prices once a day, a few hours after markets close. This means the prices and values you see always reflect the latest end-of-day data.
What this means in practice:
- Your portfolio value may differ from what your brokerage shows during market hours - this is expected
- Recommendations and analysis are based on end-of-day prices, which is the right foundation for long-term investing decisions
- Quantities and positions in connected accounts are also updated once a day through our connection partners (Plaid, SnapTrade, Yodlee)
- End-of-day pricing supports the main use case of PortfolioPilot: helping long-term investors stay informed, optimize their portfolio, and make thoughtful decisions - not react to intraday noise
If you need the most current snapshot during market hours, you can always check your brokerage directly.
