Hi,
Could you describe how IQFeed calculate S&P 500 premium.
This SP-PREM.Z comes every 15 seconds so you take index value from snapshot at some time and what the ES price do you take to calculate the premium? Bid/Ask, last price or some average and what the time?
Thank in advance

The premium is calculated tick by tick, not every 15 seconds.

The S&P 500 premium represents the cash price of the S&P 500 Index subtracted from the price of the nearby S&P futures contract.

It is calculated off the Last Price.

Definitions of this and some other indicators are available by going to the Symbol Guide: http://www.iqfeed.net/symbolguide/index.cfm?symbolguide=guide&displayaction=support§ion=guide&web=iqfeed on our website (www.iqfeed.net). Under the "notifies" section on the symbol guide, you will find "INDEXES AND INDICATORS DEFINITIONS".

Thank you Jay for clarification.
I have some small question: what is the time interval between snapshot and S&P index message (how many seconds)?
Thank you in advance
