"With HUGE volume on AAPL and RIMM for 2 days, everyone in a trading room was whining about freezes, crashes and lag with *******, RealTick, TS and Cyber. InvestorRT with IQFeed was rock solid. I mean SOLID!" - Comment from Public IRC Chat

"I just wanted to let you know how fast and easy I found it to integrate IQFeed into our existing Java code using your JNI client. In my experience, such things almost never go so smoothly - great job!" - Comment from Nate

Author	Topic: Odd data in Historical 1 sec OHLCV vs tick data (5 messages, Page 1 of 1)
ChainsawDR -Interested User- Posts: 29 Joined: Jan 4, 2019	Posted: Apr 12, 2020 06:22 PM Msg. 1 of 5 Hi, I'm retrieving the historical 1 second OHLCV data for backtesting, however I'm seeing some odd spikes in the data that I don't see when I use the 'IQFeed Time & Sales' application to view tick and/or 1min data. It's causing me to doubt whether I should pull/use the historical 1 sec OHLCV or whether I need to start pulling tick data and compiling this myself. I've attached an image that puts the 1sec vs tick vs 1min side by side and have highlighted the 85.39 1sec OHLCV that I can't reconcile with the tick or 1min data. Please could anyone let me know if I am misinterpreting this? Thanks in advance for any help Edited by ChainsawDR on Apr 12, 2020 at 06:22 PM File Attached: BBY.png (downloaded 961 times)
ChainsawDR -Interested User- Posts: 29 Joined: Jan 4, 2019	Posted: Apr 12, 2020 06:33 PM Msg. 2 of 5 Adding a clearer version. Attached is the 1 sec OHLCV data for BBY on 02/03/2020. Higlighted in yellow is a drop from $86 close price to $85.65, then back to $86. Neither the tick or 1min data from 'Time & Sales' shows any drop down to $85.65. My system triggered a signal on this 1 sec OHLCV data that wouldn't be triggered with the other iqfeed dataset. Unsure of the reason for the discrepancy, or wondering if I have a bug in my data retrieval of 1 sec OHLCV data. File Attached: BBY2.png (downloaded 1072 times)

To turn on Extended trades, you will need to go into the T&S Settings, and under the General tab, check the box for "Enable Extended Trades."
