"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

"I've been using Neoticker RT with IQFeed for two months, and I'm very happy with both of the products (I've had IQFeed for two years with very few complaints). The service from both companies is exceptional." - Comment from Public Forum

"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

"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

Author	Topic: Pauses & slow data off the open? (4 messages, Page 1 of 1)
adrian -Interested User- Posts: 28 Joined: Oct 24, 2008	Posted: Apr 23, 2010 09:00 AM Msg. 1 of 4 I'm using QuoteTracker and several times each morning my IQFeed feed will stop getting data or will lag badly behind InteractiveBroker's data. I think it's IQFeed and not IB's problem because none of my charts update and I'm able to execute trades at the displayed NBBO on IB which may be 0.10 or 0.20 away from what IQFeed is showing (on a $25 stock like LVS). I experience the same thing when using custom applications so I don't think this is a QuoteTracker bug. My system stats show 60% Memory usage and none of my 4 cores show more than 70% usage so it's probably not a hardware issue (and, as I've said, IB is still updating). Is there a way of fixing or tracking down this problem?

I use SierraChart and never had any problems (tick charts of @ES, @NQ, @YM, USO, UNG, COMPX.X, INDU.X, SPX.XO, TICK.Z) . IQFeed and TWS go hand in hand, news events included. There might be an occasional discrepancy one way or the other, but nothing serious (in sub-second range).

Our customer service department should be able to help you identify the issue if you contact them via phone or chat.
