Stake shows one Day figure for Wall St stocks, and it's the same figure wherever you look – your dashboard, your watchlist and the stock's own page. It tells you how that stock has moved across the entire trading day.

What's changed

Three things are different with this update:

• Prices are always live. Every price you see is the latest traded price, including outside regular hours
• The sun and moon toggle is gone. There's nothing left to switch between, so we've removed it
• The 1D chart runs in session order. It now begins at pre-market rather than the market open

Nothing about how your orders work has changed. There's more on that below.

What Day measures

A Wall St trading day has three sessions:

• Pre-market – 4am to 9:30am ET
• Regular hours – 9:30am to 4pm ET
• After-hours – 4pm to 8pm ET

Day covers all three. It's measured from the previous regular close at 4pm ET, so it reflects the stock's full move since yesterday's close – not just its move since this morning's open.

Why the sun and moon toggle has gone

The toggle used to switch you between regular-hours pricing and extended hours pricing. That distinction no longer exists: prices on Stake are now live at all times and Day already includes every session, so there was nothing left to toggle between. The figure you see is the complete picture.

Why the 1D chart looks different

The 1D chart used to begin at the open of regular hours. It now follows the Wall St trading day in the order it actually happens: pre-market first, then regular hours, then after-hours. One trading day, one continuous line.

Everything since the previous regular close is plotted in sequence – the same way the trading day unfolds on the exchange.

Seeing how each session moved

Day is a single number, but the detail behind it is still there. Open the 1D chart on your portfolio or a stock page and move across it. As you go, you'll see how the price changed through each session, including 'At close' and 'After-hours'.

Why Stake's price can differ from other apps

Stake always shows the latest live price, including during pre-market and after-hours. Some other platforms and finance websites don't offer extended hours pricing, or they default to showing the last regular-hours price.

So if you compare a stock outside regular hours and the numbers don't match, it's usually because Stake is showing the most recent trade while the other source is showing where the stock finished at the close. Once regular trading resumes, the two line up.

Live prices don't mean orders fill around the clock

Prices on Stake move across every Wall St session, but an order only fills during the sessions it's set to trade in.

If Extended Hours is off for an order, it waits for the next regular session (9:30am–4pm ET) – even while the stock is trading in pre-market or after-hours and the price is moving.

To have an order fill outside regular hours, turn on Extended Hours when you place it. Keep in mind that some stocks and order types aren't available outside regular hours.

Extended Hours trading hasn't changed

This update changes how prices and Day movement are displayed, not how orders work. Your Extended Hours order settings, your enrolment and stock eligibility are all exactly as they were.
