market quote for GLD is stuck and is incorrect. Please fix…
ask_price remains 0.0, and bid_price is stuck at 333.0
this was working earlier.
.{‘GLD’: { ‘ask_exchange’: ’ ',
‘ask_price’: 0.0,
‘ask_size’: 0.0,

@bwfan123 Are you using the free Basic market data and/or feed=iex? It appears so. Notice ‘bid_exchange’: ‘V’ The exchange code for the IEX exchange is V. You are only seeing quotes from the the IEX exchange and not full market quotes. Only about 2% of all quotes, and virtually no NBBO quotes, originate on the IEX exchange. There simply weren’t any ask quotes for GLD as of the time of your query which is why you see 0.0.
Note if you are using feed=iex the quotes, while correct, can be very misleading since they aren’t full market. They shouldn’t be used for live trading decisions and are provided mostly for test and debug.
thanks @Dan_Whitnable_Alpaca that explains it. I am using the free basic market data.
