When does Numbers update stock quote data? When exactly does Numbers refresh stock quote data? I was previous days close but surely its been updated since that was the case. [Re-Titled by Moderator]

Numbers on iPad does not update stock prices anymore Numbers on iPad says there is no data available for the requested symbol, when using the ‘stock’ function. I use the stock() function, followed by the ticker symbol and a specific attribute to fetch information such as the previous day's closing price, high, or low for that stock. It worked for more than a year, but since yesterday half of my spreadsheet is filled with red triangles with exclamation marks instead of numbers. Internet connectivity is more than okay; writing this with my iPad. Followed many suggestions to be found on the internet, but with no effect.

Stocks App After Hours Prices (Redux) The answer given by Apple Support to the previous thread by this name wasn’t clear on how to get after-hours stock prices. Tap on the stock to display its chart, then tap on 1D to display prices for the day. This will show the after-hours price in the upper-right corner, as was previously the default for all of the chart timeframes. YTD price change is certainly useful, but shouldn’t be the default. Also, when making a change like this, display a pop-up explaining the change, how to get after-hours prices, etc., first time the updated app is launched. Even better, just display after-hours prices *and* YTD price change in the upper right. There’s room.

Numbers gets its data from Yahoo! Finance. The prices are as of the previous day's close. In other words it does not update intra-day.

If you are trying to track day-trading then you will be better off using a tool designed for that, not a spreadsheet, either Excel or Numbers.

Spreadsheets are great for conducting financial analysis but they're not designed to manage portfolios.
