FAQ
Short answers to the questions we hear most.
Is StockWatch free?
Yes for browsing markets, quotes, news, lessons, glossary, and many hubs. Free accounts get limited watchlists and alerts. Pro raises those limits and unlocks deeper tools. See Pricing.
Are prices real-time?
No. Quotes are delayed or aggregated for research and education. StockWatch is not a broker and does not execute trades.
What does “demo” mean on a quote?
Demo means the live feed was unavailable, so the UI shows placeholder values for learning. Prefer symbols marked live when you care about the actual last print.
How is this different from Lessons or the Glossary?
Help is product how-to and FAQ. Lessons teach finance concepts. The Glossary defines terms in plain English. Use all three together.
How do I get the weekly market brief?
Use the newsletter signup on the homepage or education pages. You can unsubscribe anytime from the link in each email.
I paid but Pro is not active yet. What now?
Wait a few seconds and refresh Account or Watchlists while Stripe webhooks sync. If checkout was canceled, nothing was charged. Subscribe again from Pricing.
Who do I contact for support?
Email hello@stockplutus.com. Include your account email and a short description of the issue (billing, alerts, or a specific page URL).
Is any of this investment advice?
No. StockWatch is for education and market information only. You are responsible for your own decisions and should confirm data with your broker or advisor.
