[R-SIG-Finance] IBrokers Risk Management Backend Solution Help with twsPortfolioValue

[Jeff Ryan]

I don't recall this as "fact" per se, but in my experience the account updates aren't updated as they happen. It's more of a when IB wants to send/update. 

I've typically watched the risk from the market data feed (reqMktData or reqRealTimeBars)
