Missing OHLC for an SPX option via API call Feb 22, 2021 07:30 AM
(Total replies: 1)
Yes, it's supposed to work like that. In general, historical requests will only return data for time periods in which trades exist. This is also true of the HID, HIX and HTT commands. Sincerely, Gary Stephen DTN IQFeed Implementation Support Specialist

No (backfilling?) data on Amibroker and IQFeed Charts Feb 22, 2021 07:27 AM
(Total replies: 2)
Yes, LgHubUpdater.exe is a common problem. This keyboard/mouse updater program uses port 9100, which is the same port number as the Lookup/History port uses. If LgHubUpdater it is running, you will not be able to do any request to that socket, but the other connections (such as port 5009, the Level 1 feed)will work fine. The easiest solution is just to shut off LgHubUpdater in Task Manager/Processes or Task Manager/Services. Sincerely, Gary Stephen DTN IQFeed Implementation Support Specialist

How do I get real-time options greeks using web sockets? Feb 22, 2021 07:12 AM
(Total replies: 7)
For the record, altmany is correct that the IQFeed API will not give you the Greeks correctly; you will have to calculate them yourself using data that it does provide. The "Fundamental Message" and "Update/Summary Messages" pages of the online IQFeed help will list of all data points that are available via the IQFeed API.

Real time data using HDX command for Historical Data via TCP/IP Jan 21, 2021 09:07 AM
(Total replies: 1)
The only delay with any historical command is if you are not subscribed to realtime data for the symbol you are requesting. For example, the IQFeed Core Package includes NASDAQ data, but it's 10 minutes delayed unless you add a subscription to realtime NASDAQ data. Any historical request would be 10 minutes delayed also. So HDX with the IncludePartialDatapoint parameter would give you a partial daily total up to 10 minutes ago. Sincerely, Gary Stephen DTN IQFeed Implementation Support Specialist

IQFeed Change To Simultaneous Requests (sudden "E,Too Many Connections" errors) Jan 18, 2021 04:40 PM
(Total replies: 13)
For the record, the number of concurrent clients shouldn't be a factor. The server limits you to a total of 50 requests per second, no matter how many concurrent clients the requests are spread across. Let me know if you want me to dig deeper on this.

IQFeed Change To Simultaneous Requests (sudden "E,Too Many Connections" errors) Dec 28, 2020 09:50 AM

Quote: So I'm curious as to whether your intent is to limit the rate at which requests are initiated, or the bandwidth demand on the servers. It's to limit the rate at which requests are initiated. If your software works as you describe - by not sending the next request until the last one is complete - then you should never afoul of the limit.

Too many simultaneous history requests Dec 22, 2020 08:44 AM
(Total replies: 13)
All, This is caused by a recent change to how IQFeed handles simultaneous history requests. See this post for a full explanation: http://forums.iqfeed.net/index.cfm?page=topic&topicID=5832 In brief: IQFeed now imposes a limit of 25 history requests per second, regardless of how long each request takes to run. Previously, the limit was 15 history requests per second, but when a request completed returning data it no longer counted against your limit. So if your app makes a lot of small history requests - which would exceed the new limit but not the new one - you may have started getting this error message the last couple days. The solution is to limit history requests to 25 per second, regardless of length.

Effective immediately, IQFeed has made a change to how it handles history requests. Previously, IQFeed would allow up to 15 simultaneous active history requests. "Active" meant they had to still be returning data. When one request finished returning data, the number of active requests decreased by one, and another request could begin without exceeding this limit. Going forward, iqfeed will allow up to 25 historical requests in a second, with no regard to whether past requests have completed. If your application makes a lot of small history requests at a time, this may cause you to start receiving the "E, too many requests" error message. Whenever you make a new history request, your number of active requests is increased by 1. Every 1/25th of a second (40 milliseconds) this number decreases by one. As long as you don't exceed a rolling average of 25 history requests per second, you will avoid the "too many requests" error. In other words: time your requests such that you do not exceed 25 per second. This change was made in hopes of setting a more consistent, and easier to understand, bar for historical requests. It was difficult to know whether you had exceeded the old "15 simultaneous active requests" standard; a limit of 25 per second regardless of how long each request takes to run is much easier to work with. Also, it sets a consistent standard for history requests of all sizes, that will work with our server. These changes pertain to request sent to the history server (port 9100) only. Level 1 (port 5009) requests, and other requests, are not affected. If you have any questions about this change, please ask us! Sincerely, Gary Stephen DTN IQFeed Implementation Support Specialist

The 5MS command only returns the report once. If you want to receive it every five minutes, you'd have to re-request it each time. Sincerely, Gary Stephen DTN IQFeed Implementation Support Specialist

missing split event? Dec 18, 2020 04:45 PM
(Total replies: 6)
I should also mention that we entered the 1-for-20 reverse split in this stock dated today. This has been corrected in IQ history and should now be visible. Furthermore: the stock symbol changed from ANTGF to ANTGD just prior to the split, and it is now listed under ANTGD. This is typical for OTC stocks that undergo reverse splits – a fifth letter “D” is added to the symbol or replaces the previous fifth letter. This is a temporary symbol and after a few days the symbol will revert to ANTGF. This symbol change is an industry standard and not unique to DTN.

missing split event? Dec 18, 2020 04:38 PM
(Total replies: 6)
I don't know the exact timing of the update. As for GECC, I did not find any history of any splits. I know there are some online websites that mention it, but I could not find any official documentation. GECC merged with Full Circle CApital in 2016 (http://www.investor.greatelmcc.com/node/6246/pdf). GECC declared three monthly distributions of $0.083 per share through December 2020. These can be paid in cash, stock, or a combination thereof. In cases like this, where the shareholder as han option of receiving stock or cash, these can be treated as a dividend. GECC does show a most recent dividend date that would match this payout. Sincerely, Gary Stephen DTN IQFeed Implementation Support Specialist

ANTGF is a NASDAQ symbol. Splits for NASDAQ symbols are never entered before the day of the split. I would expect that new split to appear tomorrow. (NYSE symbols can, sometimes, be updated in advance, and have a 'last split' date that is in the future.) I will investigate why GECC's splits aren't listed. If you can provide any other symbols you know of that are missing split data, we can investigate and add it where appropriate. Sincerely, Gary Stephen DTN IQFeed Implementation Support Specialist

COM Interface documentation broken? Dec 15, 2020 01:48 PM
(Total replies: 3)
I should be a little more thorough about the COM interface: The COM interfaces are end of life, and have been for some time now. We will not make any new code changes to the COM interfaces. They can still be used in the IQFeed API, but we only keep them active to support backwards compatibility. If you're working with an older app that used COM interfaces, they still work, and I can help with any questions about it. But no new development should be done with the COM interfaces.
