"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.

Hi,

For the fundamental data:

Percent held by institutions:
float
A percentage of outstanding shares held by banks and institutions.
Provided by exchange or 3rd party data provider

I found it is different from Google/Yahoo. For example, AAPL:

IQFeed: 47.20%
Google: 63%

Any clarification or identity of the source of the data provider? Thanks

Hello,

I was able to confirm that I see the differences, so we will investigate that and let you know the results.
