"Thanks for the great product and support. During this week of high volume trading, my QuoteTracker + IQ Feed setup never missed a beat. Also, thanks for your swiftness in responding to data issues. I was on ******* for a few years before I made the switch over early this year, and wish I had done it a long time ago." - Comment from Ken
"If you are serious about your trading I would not rely on IB data for serious daytrading. Took me a while to justify the cost of IQ Feed and in the end, it's just a 2 point stop on ES. Better safe than sorry" - Comment from Public Forum

I should also note that I'm on version 5.0 of the API. I know that's an old version.
No need to dig into this if no one else is seeing any issues. It may be an issue on my end anyway, and I've found a workaround that patches together data collected before and after April 12, instead of collecting the last couple months all at once.
It's been a while since I've worked on this software, but I believe that it is sending the following request.
HTD,CNGT,50,,,,1,321687954
For this request, I'm not seeing any ticks after April 12. However, if I change the third column from 50 to 20, so that April 12 is not covered, then I see ticks after that date.
It's very possible that there's something else in my software that's getting tripped up by the error lines that I'm trying to ignore.
I ran my software again, this time requesting data starting from a date after April 12. This resulted in many more ticks being returned. It's still aggregate data, but the results look to be in line with what I was seeing before the backfill.
In summary, I seem to be retrieving fewer ticks for days after April 12, but only if I ask for data starting from before April 12.
So, I'm wondering if whatever is causing those "Connection Timeout Error" lines to appear in the results is also affecting the data that is returned for a stock after that point.
Since the backfill was completed, historical data requests done via the API receive lines like with:
"E,Connection Timeout Error."
Since these occur after receiving data around the time of the outage, I assume I should just ignore them.
More importantly, I'm also seeing far fewer ticks on the trading days starting after April 12. I only have aggregate data right now, but I'm seeing about 1/30 as many ticks on each day.
These are all OTCBB stocks.
