I was running some backtests trying to look at the past week and it seems like maybe the data wasn't there. I could have an issue with my code. How up to date is the backtest data?

We strive to keep the data up to date with yesterday's trading.
Sometimes for one reason or another this can get behind. We changed the backtesting infrastructure late last week to be 60% faster and have more bandwidth so people could get backtest results faster. Because of this we were a few days behind. Its being updated today and it should be caught up by tomorrow.

Hi Jared,
I noticed the data is not quite up to date. 2 days behind actually.
The latest data point I got today (4:37 AM August 6, 2020 UTC) is on Aug 3 for symbol SPY and TDOC. Is that expected?

Hi Jared,
I think I was wrong. I printed the date and prices in OnData function, and I can see the data is very up to date. However, the reason I thought the data is behind 2 days is because the latest date in the chart is at least 2 days behind. Not sure why though.
