This morning i noticed a large number of 'o' messages, ie Update/Status messages with an 'o' appended to the LastTradeTime (#18) field.
Q: Any idea what that might mean?
Thanks!

"o" messages will be an update that contains anything other than Trade/bid/ask information. If you are running the current version of IQFeed (4.7.2.0), this will also include non-last-qualifying trades.
For example, settlements will frequently come through the feed as an "o" message.
If you can give me an example, I can dig into it further just to make sure there isn't something esle (bad) going on.

Thank you for the reply. I am running 4.7.2.0. I've added some logging for Monday morning and we'll see what I capture. Maybe I've just been asleep lately, but today was the first time I noticed a large number of 'o' messages. I skip them, but generate an alarm, which is how I noticed it.

Must be driver error. I've been logging all week and didn't see anything suspicious this week.
May I suggest you add your initial explanation to the documentation under the 'o' tag. It would have been good to know that I safely could ignore those quotes.
Thanks for your assistance.
