"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

"And by the way, have to say this. I love the IQFeed software. It's rock solid and it has a really nice API." - Comment from Thomas via RT Chat

"I noticed that ******* quotes locked up shortly after the interest rate announcement yesterday while yours stayed stable." - Comment from Ron in Utah

"I "bracket trade" all major news releases and I have not found one lag or glitch with DTN.IQ feed. I am very comfortable with their feed under all typical news conditions (Fed releases, employment numbers, etc)." - Comment from Public Forum

"I've been using Neoticker RT with IQFeed for two months, and I'm very happy with both of the products (I've had IQFeed for two years with very few complaints). The service from both companies is exceptional." - Comment from Public Forum

"I started a trial a few weeks back before the market went wild. DTN.IQ didn’t miss anything and beat my other provider. I decided to stay with you because of the great service through all the volatility." - Comment from Mike

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

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

"I just wanted to let u know that your data feed/service is by far the best!!! Your unfiltered tick data is excellent for reading order flow and none of your competitors delivers this quality of data!" - Comment from Peter via Email

Author	Topic: Canadian Equity and Corporate Bond Symbology Changes Effective ~July 13th (2 messages, Page 1 of 1)
DTN_Jay_Froscheiser -VP, Product Operations- Posts: 1746 Joined: May 3, 2004 DTN IQFeed/DTN.IQ/DTN NxCore	Posted: Jul 2, 2013 06:14 PM Msg. 1 of 2 In order to more closely align with new symbology from the TSX exchange, we will be making the following changes to Canadian equity symbols: • Any symbol that currently ends in .U will now end in .UN • Any symbol that currently ends in .R will now end in .RT • Any symbol that currently ends in .US will now end in .U • Any symbol that currently ends in .SR will now end in .R There are currently 6 symbol collisions that can occur during this change and you might need to manually adjust any historical data you currently have saved to account for this. In each of the following cases, the current symbols are listed below and the symbol ending in .U will reference the symbol ending in .US after the change has been made. • C.FAY.U - FIRST ASSET YIELD OPPORTUNITY • C.FAY.US - FIRST ASSET YLD OPP TRUST • C.GTU.U - CENTRAL GOLD-TRUST • C.GTU.US - CENTRAL GOLD-TRUST • C.ISL.U - ING FLOATING RATE SENIOR LOAN • C.ISL.US - ING FLOATING RATE SENIOR LOAN • C.OUY.U - O'LEARY U.S. STRAT YIELD ADV F • C.OUY.US - O'LEARY US STRAT YIELD ADV FUN • C.SBT.U - SILVER BULLION TRUST UNITS • C.SBT.US - SILVER BULLION TRUST • C.SIA.U - SKYLON INTL ADVANTAGE YIELD TR • C.SIA.US - SKYLON INTL ADVANTAGE YIELD TR We will also be taking the opportunity to correct a long-standing symbology issue with bond symbols in IQFeed that is causing inconsistencies in the symbology. This change will add a dot between the root symbol and any suffix/class identifier. For example: Old Symbol / New Symbol TAKA.CB / TAK.A.CB SXNA.CB / SXN.A.CB BRKB.17A.CB / BRK.B.17A.CB CUSA14.CB / CUS.A14.CB MOGA15.CB / MOG.A15.CB Both of these changes are currently scheduled to be put into production on the weekend of July 13th.
