New trader here. I am puzzled because my E*trade account balance does not match the totaled market values of my positions. Account balance displayed shows I have about $120 LESS than the total of my positions’ market values. And the 2pennies I have in cash doesn’t explain the $120 difference. I have no unsettled cash. What am I missing? I took a screen shot with no sensitive info, but can’t figure out how to post it here. I have a tiny account so it is easy to see the numbers don’t add up.
Wow! My market values on positions just updated. It took over 30 minutes even though I was constantly refreshing the page. Now everything matches.
I appreciate your reply. It's a good thing to check, but I had no unsettled cash. However, I was using the phone app. Someone suggested to me that I needed to completely close out the app and re-open it . I'm not sure if that was the issue, but I will try that next time.
