Canadian stocks should be treated same as US stocks now that we get real time quotes. Previous day data still not updated until 9:45AM EST
Now that Canadian stock quotes are real-time (no longer delayed by 15 minutes), it would be nice to see corresponding "previous day close" and "change" information correctly displayed between 9:30AM and 9:45 AM EST. Currently, these are based on close data from 2 days prior. The data only gets updated at 9:45.
I'm hoping this is a quick fix, given it should require similar algorithms as for the US markets. (It really gives heartburn first thing in the morning when I see a massive % decline for a second day in a row, only because the previous day's close data is not updated for the first 15 minutes.)

Will this issue ever get fixed ? Should be quite easy to resolve.

I completely agree Amitabh. This is so frustrating, and must be such as easy fix. It was great to get real time prices from market open (9.30), but to not get the correct daily change (from previous close) until 9.45 always causes me panic, as I see a stock with a huge decline.

It's simply poor implementation, a small but very meaningful oversight. I am surprised it hasn't been corrected yet. It's funny because this offering is infinitely better than Google Finance and the real-time data agreement a big win for investors interested in the Canadian markets.

Agreed, this is an annoying bug.
