"This is an excellent value, the system is generous (allowing for 500 stocks) and stable (and really is tick-by-tick), and the support is fantastic." - Comment from Shirin via Email

"I had always used ******* but for the past 2 weeks have been trying DTN IQFeed. Customer support has been extraordinary. They call just to make sure your problem hasn't recurred." - Comment from Public Forum

"Excellent datafeed !!!" - Comment from Arely

"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. The system is very robust and pretty quick considering the extent of data that's available. The support guys have been very helpful too, in combination with the forums it's been plain sailing so far!" - Comment from Adam

"The service is great, I see a noticeable improvement in my volume profiles over [broker]'s data feed" - Comment from Larry

"Thank you so much - awesome feed, awesome service!" - Comment from Greg via Email

"I "bracket trade" all major news releases and I have not found one lag or glitch with DTN.IQ feed. I am very comfortable with their feed under all typical news conditions (Fed releases, employment numbers, etc)." - Comment from Public Forum

"The people at Nirvana have very nice things to say about your company and I can see why! Price and service is a potent combination." - Comment from Ed

"I was on the phone with a friend who uses CQG and right after the Fed announcement, CQG was as much as 30 seconds behind DTN.IQ. Some quotes were off by as much as 15-18 cents. Your feed never missed a beat." - Comment from Roger

"I am keeping IQFeed, much better reliabilty than *******. I may refer a few other people in the office to switch as well." - Comment from Don

IQFeed users can watch 500, while DTN.IQ can watch 1300. Other than the above limit, Level II doesn't have any other specific limit. However, in practical use you won't be able to watch more than say 10-20 level II symbols at a time due to sheer volume of data and updates. It is definately dependant on the users machine. I have had upwards of 50 level II screens running as a test, but it wasn't too pretty. You can tell how many symbols your account is authorized for by looking at the connection manager (in the system tray) after you login. It will show Maximum Symbols as well as other stats that may be of use. Jay Froscheiser DTN Market Access, LLC.
