"I was on the phone with a friend who uses CQG and right after the Fed announcement, CQG was as much as 30 seconds behind DTN.IQ. Some quotes were off by as much as 15-18 cents. Your feed never missed a beat." - Comment from Roger

"I like you guys better than *******...much more stable and a whole lot fewer issues." - Comment from Philip

"Thank God for your Data Feed as the only Zippers I see are on my pants (LOL), and no more 200 pip spikes to mess up charts." - Comment from Spiro via Email

"I would just like to say that IQFeed version 4 is running very well and I am very happy with its performance. I would also like to extend a big thanks for the fast and efficient help that I always receive. My questions and concerns are always addressed promptly. Way to go!" - Comment from Josh in CO.

"Just a quick one to say I'm very impressed so far :) The documentation for developers is excellent and I've quickly managed to get an app written to do historical downloads. The system is very robust and pretty quick considering the extent of data that's available. The support guys have been very helpful too, in combination with the forums it's been plain sailing so far!" - Comment from Adam

"You have an excellent product !!!!!!" - Comment from Arely

"DTN has never given me problems. It is incredibly stable. In fact I've occasionally lost the data feed from Interactive Brokers, but still been able to trade because I'm getting good data from DTN." - Comment from Leighton

"I am enjoying the feed very much - so superior to the broker provided feed I was previously using." - Comment from George

"I used to have *******, but they are way more money for the same thing. I have had no probs with data from DTN since switching over." - Comment from Public Forum Post

"Everything is working great ! Very impressive client. The news refreshes better and is more pertinent than the ******* feed I paid $ 100/month for. I Also like the charts a lot." - Comment from Leon

Export the wathlist data into csv file 3. Close the watch list. I can use "WatchList.exe test.wat" to open a watchlist of "test", but that is all I can do so far. How to export the data and close the watchlist? Thanks,

You would need to us a windows macro utility if you wanted to script the functions you mention. Jay Froscheiser DTN - Trading Markets

Is it based on DDE spreadsheet ? How can I get my spreadsheet to list 1300 symbols? Now I can only list 500 symbols...thanks!

You may contact sales at 1-800-475-4755 and they should be able to give more complete data on this including pricing. Edited by DTN_Tim Walter on Apr 25, 2006 at 03:56 PM
