Data provider is yahoo. Any data set that comes with WLP CAN NOT be updated before midnight. That includes Nasdaq 100 , Dow 30 etc.

Okay, we can refine the topic title then. It should have this info from the start.

Like most feeds, Yahoo is a free data provider. It's entirely up to Yahoo as to when they make their data available for download. Note that the quotes you see on their website do NOT guarantee the availability of the data table. Look for alternatives here:

Let me add that WL8 has the same problem with the Fidelity Select Sector funds provided by Yahoo; they are only updated after midnight even though Yahoo's quotes page shows prices updated about two hours after the market closes.

If you know of an alternative free provider for Fidelity Select Sector funds, please suggest it. IQFeed does provide these prices, but it will cost you extra to subscribe to that part of their datafeed service.

This is not a problem, it's by design. The Quotes page is not considered. WL providers (at least since WL5) hit the Download link which gets updated by Yahoo at a different time.
