"The service is great, I see a noticeable improvement in my volume profiles over [broker]'s data feed" - Comment from Larry
"I ran your IQFeed DDE vs. my broker vs. a level II window for some slow-moving options. I would see the level II quote change, then your feed update instantaneously. My broker's DDE, however, would take as much as 30 seconds to update. I am not chasing milliseconds, but half a minute is unacceptable." - Comment from Rob
"You are either overstaffed or people just don't have problems with your feed because customer support always answers the phone quickly." - Comment from Jay via Email
"Thanks for the great product and support. During this week of high volume trading, my QuoteTracker + IQ Feed setup never missed a beat. Also, thanks for your swiftness in responding to data issues. I was on ******* for a few years before I made the switch over early this year, and wish I had done it a long time ago." - Comment from Ken
"I am a hedge fund manager here. It’s funny, I have a Bloomberg terminal and a Bridge feed, but I still like having my DTN feed!" - Comment from Feras

When I load LE on Ninjatrader I use the symbol @LE

When I load LE ##-## it works fine. However, when I load LE 12-10 it says Invalid Instrument Name.

Can you please advise why it does not work?

Thanks

PEDRO

Hello Pedro, looking here at my copy of NT7 and the LE Contract, and one thing that I noticed is that after editing the symbol and checking the symbol map section under the Misc tab, NT has our symbol wrong for the Electronic Live Cattle, on mine it was listed as just "L" as the root symbol which is incorrect. Our correct symbol is @LE for the Electronic Live Cattle. To check this on your end, go to Tools, Instrument Manager, the search for the LE contract, and either double-left click on it, or hightlight that symbol and click on Edit. On the Instrument Editor window that comes up, click on the Misc tab at the top, and finally scroll down till you get to the Symbol Map section. On that part where it says IQFeed change it to @LE then click on OK. Next, you will need to remove it from your Instrument list on the left hand column and re-add it to that list. Once you have re-added try to bring it up in a chart again.

If you have any other problems or questions please let us know.

Thanks.
