"Can I get another account from you? I am tired of ******* going down so often" - Comment from George
"DTN has never given me problems. It is incredibly stable. In fact I've occasionally lost the data feed from Interactive Brokers, but still been able to trade because I'm getting good data from DTN." - Comment from Leighton
"Thank you so much - awesome feed, awesome service!" - Comment from Greg via Email
"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
"I have been using IQFeed now for a few years in MultiCharts and I have zero complaints. Very, very rare to have any data hiccups or anything at all go wrong." - Comment from Public Forum
"IQFeed version 4 is a real screamer compared to anything else I have seen." - Comment from Tom
"I just wanted to say how happy I am with your service. I was able to download the API docs last week and I was able to replicate Interactive Brokers historical bar queries and realtime bar queries over the weekend. That was about one of the fastest integrations that I've ever done and it works perfectly!!!!" - Comment from Jason via Email

IQFeed Developer Support » Settle trades not chronological Jul 25, 2016 06:52 AM (Total replies: 1)

I was trying to get historical tick data for GC (Gold future). I noticed that a settle trade (basis for last='S') with an older time stamp came after a trade with basis for last='C'. I was getting historical tick data with oldest to newest order. Is this natural or an error? It was messing up my historical tick database.
The time stamp in question was 2016-02-08 14:14:59.

Thanks.

IQFeed Developer Support » Definition of trading hours for historical tick data availability May 20, 2016 08:22 AM (Total replies: 1)

What is the definition of trading hours for historical tick data availability ( 8 days vs 180 days) for futures? For example for LE (Live Cattle) is the time window for getting 180 days tick data outside of the LE trading hours (8:30am CT - 1:05pm CT) or the standard NYSE trading hours?

IQFeed Developer Support » How to get the earliest date tick data available May 19, 2016 04:16 PM (Total replies: 1)

I was trying to write a function to retrieve the earliest date tick data is available for a symbol. I am sending a HTT request with begin date as a very old date ( 20000101 000000), end date as blank, data direction as oldest to newest and maxdatapoints as 1. Its only returning the latest tick.

But if I supply only the end date with trial and error it does return the oldest date. Is there any other simple way?

Thanks.

IQFeed Developer Support » BufferedReader.readLine hangs for history lookup May 18, 2016 10:29 AM (Total replies: 2)

I am trying to get historical tick data using the Java API (IQFeed version 5.2.1). Here is the code snippet:

String command = "HTX,IBM,5,,testid,\r\n\n";
// String line;
C_LookupIQFeed_Socket.brBufferedWriter.write(command);
C_LookupIQFeed_Socket.brBufferedWriter.flush();

while ((line = C_LookupIQFeed_Socket.brBufferedReader.readLine()) != null) {
logger.debug("HistoryRecord={}", line);
}

It prints the output till the last record ("!ENDMSG!,"), but hangs at the readLine() thereafter i.e. the readLine() is never returning null after the last record. I have tested this on the samples provided, same thing happens. Any idea? Is it possible that the server is not sending a new line after the last message. Is there any other way to handle this?

Thanks.
