Why is my Observed Pricing different from Wheelhouse Pricing?

The In-Context Chart on an individual listing page shows an overview of our pricing for the next 18 months. In this section, you will see the following pricing:

Observed Pricing - current pricing on channel/PMS

Wheelhouse Pricing - nightly rates that we sync for each date of your listing.

Note: Wheelhouse can only sync our pricing recommendations (nightly rates) to available dates of your channel or PMS. While we still generate our pricing recommendations on Wheelhouse Calendar, they won't be pushed to booked and blocked dates until these dates become available again. So you may see the Observed Pricing and Wheelhouse Pricing may not be the same for booked dates or blocked dates.


Available Date

In the example below, both Observed Pricing and Wheelhouse Pricing are the same at $88 because September 1, 2024, is available:


Booked Date

On the other hand, September 6, 2024, shows the Observed Pricing is $90, while Wheelhouse Pricing is $91:

This is because September 6, 2024, was already booked at $90 which corresponds to the Observed Pricing or the current pricing from the channel when it was booked which can be confirmed by clicking the "View historical changes" link on the left side panel of Wheelhouse Calendar:

The Wheelhouse Pricing of $91 is the nightly rate that we currently generate for this date, though it won't be synced since the date is already booked:


Blocked Date

Similar to booked dates, the Observed Pricing and Wheelhouse Pricing may also show different rates for blocked dates. In the example below, Observed Pricing is $482, while Wheelhouse Pricing is $283, since February 11, 2025, is a blocked date:

The $482 corresponds to the Observed Pricing or the current pricing from the channel when it was blocked. This can be confirmed by clicking the "View historical changes" link on the right-side panel of the Wheelhouse Calendar:
