What's causing problems with Bond Price downloads from Etrade? TomYoung 05-06-2008

Hi all:

I've been having continuing and frustrating problems with downloads of
bond prices from Etrade. If you want to read the whole screwy tale of
problems experienced over the last few days I've posted it in the
Quicken site forums, with no responses so far.

But, to just deal with today's problem: A few minutes ago I did a One
Step Update which was reported as successful. When I look at the
Portfolio View the bonds held at Etrade have not updated; there's an
"est" beside each bond price and the prices shown are all yesterday's
prices. When I look at the OFXLOG the prices for the bonds all show
an "as of" date of today's closing price (<DTASOF>20080506170100.000)
and the prices are different from yesterday's prices. When I view the
Price History for the bonds today's correct price is shown with a 5/7
date and there is no 5/6 price information.

Thoughts?

TIA

Tom Young

I guess not....

Anyway, change in behavior today. OSU is continuing to put today's
EOD price in tomorrows price bucket. However, it's *also* placing
yesterday's price in today's price bucket and today's Portfolio View
no longer has an "est" besides today's display of yesterday's price.

C'mon you OFX gurus, help me solve this problem!
