Question form pre-submit checklist.

[X] I have searched the existing issues to ensure there isn't already an issue about this question.
[X] My question has to do with the Python SDK and isn't a general question about the API. (If it is please open your issue here)
[X] My question isn't about how to do a specific algorithm or asking for trade advice (answers to these are outside the scope of this repo).

Question

when is last_equity being updated each day?

it is currently 10 hours after US closed and last_equity still gives me the value from 2 days ago closing.

Many thanks

Tom

Hi @tomnewg, this looks like a general question about the API rather than the SDK. Still, you can find the datetime linked to the last_equity in the previous_close field of the TradeAccount.
