Start to use Tiingo, but seems not to work

[Klaus]

Hello,
I introduce Tiingo as qoute server to some of my investments, added the token and start update pricing. On the Tiingo side I can see a usage of the Token, but I see no update of the price.
May I do also need to update the ticker symbol for the investment, but there is no natural linke between the Tiingo symbol list and the the investments I have. Any idea?

Hi Klaus,

Tiingo is only updating "End-Of-Day" prices, so if you're expecting to see a live price during the middle of the day, that won't happen with Tiingo. If you update stock prices during the middle of today, you'll get yesterday's closing price. You can use "Help / Logs / Price Retrieve..." to see the dates/symbols updated. I'm guessing this is the confusion, and not a problem with the symbols, but if you want to see how to record symbols for usage with Tiingo, see section 1.1.5 Symbology in their documentation.
