I have a WD dataset containing 87 symbols, running a backtest using daily bars over three years. Some positions are closing out early, apparently due to incomplete data:



I have five data providers checked, and your text appears to state that Wealth-Lab goes to all the checked providers, so one would think that out of all these providers a complete set of daily bars would be retrieved:



I am getting error messages regarding Q-data and AlphaVantage:



How do I manage the available providers such that I don't get the incomplete data?

Well, WealthData covers a subset of the US market, mainly the S&P 500. QData covers the full market, but does not update until a bit later in the evening. I see you have TD Ameritrade installed, but it's not activated yet? Their daily data is fairly comprehensive and updates shortly after market close in my experience. You can also try moving Alpaca closer to the top, I tried Alpaca with the symbols that were erroring out for you, and it was returning current daily data for me.
