Market Intelligence API returns stale prices (1-2 days delayed) #188

Hi team,

I'm running a trading bot that uses the Market Intelligence API endpoint:
GET /api/market-intel/stocks/{symbol}/latest

The current_price field is returning prices that are 1-2 days old instead of current market prices.

Example tested on April 17, 2026:

  • HD: API returns $338.91 (as_of: April 15) vs actual $350.34 → 3.26% off
  • BA: API returns $218.88 (as_of: April 16) vs actual $226.76 → 3.48% off
  • CAT: API returns $772.66 (as_of: April 16) vs actual $799.66 → 3.38% off
  • AAPL: API returns $263.40 (as_of: April 16) vs actual $271.19 → 2.87% off

This causes two problems:

  1. Bots record incorrect entry prices when trading
  2. Followers cannot replicate signals at the displayed price

Could the API provide same-day prices, or add a clear price_as_of field so bots can detect stale data?
