"Everything is working amazing now. I'm already impressed with the true-tick feed of IQFeed and it's ability to support my 480 symbol layout." - Comment from Tyler via Email

"Previously I was using *******. IQFeed is WAY more economical, and for my charting needs is just as good, if not better." - Comment from Public Forum Post

"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

"With HUGE volume on AAPL and RIMM for 2 days, everyone in a trading room was whining about freezes, crashes and lag with *******, RealTick, TS and Cyber. InvestorRT with IQFeed was rock solid. I mean SOLID!" - Comment from Public IRC Chat

"I like you guys better than *******...much more stable and a whole lot fewer issues." - Comment from Philip

"Excellent datafeed !!!" - Comment from Arely

"I use IQ Feed, Great stuff as far as data analysis information, storage and retrieval is concerned." - Comment from Public Forum

"I am enjoying the feed very much - so superior to the broker provided feed I was previously using." - Comment from George

"You have an excellent product !!!!!!" - Comment from Arely

"I've been using IQFeed 4 in a multi-threaded situation for the last week or two on 2600 symbols or so with 100 simultaneous daily charts, and I have had 100% responsiveness." - Comment from Scott

Author	Topic: Found another bug(?) in charting app for DTN 2.8.0.7 (8 messages, Page 1 of 1)
AMA -DTN Evangelist- Posts: 183 Joined: Aug 1, 2007	Posted: May 13, 2011 03:27 PM Msg. 1 of 8 Found another problem. I'm running an equity chart, 2 minute intervals, and two or three times today it's just stopped updating. When I click on the green refresh button at top, it'll produce an up-to-date chart, but it hasn't been correctly updating the chart as time goes on today. Too soon to tell if this is going to be an everyday thing or not, but could you guys back at HQ try running a simple 2-minute chart of well-known stocks(AAPL, WFC, IBM, etc) and see if you encounter the same problem? You'll need to run this next week during market hours to adequately test. All of my other numbers/apps are updating as normal, so this leads me to believe it's a bug in the charting program. If this is ongoing, I'll have to rollback to the earlier code... Btw, as mentioned in my other post, I'm current on Win7, etc. DTNIQ upgrade is the only change I've made in a while, so I don't think this is on my platform. Running to day on server: 66.112.156.224

My 2-minute chart is not updating at all. When I click on the green refresh button, it refreshes to the current time, but will not update after that. Tried several well-known stocks(AAPL, MSFT, IBM, etc), so seems to be market-wide. TOTAL show-stopper. Will have to roll back to earlier version. Pls post here whether you all at HQ encounter the same problem. If so, someone needs to do some actual testing on releases before unleashing on the public. Not good, guys... How soon can you get a version out for download that has these basic bugs fixed? I'd like to upgrade, but gotta have sumpin' that works correctly. Win7 Pro, DTNIQ 2.8.0.7, IQFeed 4.7.2.0

I was talking to your support people today about a DTNIQ problem and got the run around about being on an old release and needing to upgrade. Problem is, I can't upgrade if the new code doesn't work correctly. Mid-May to mid-August...waiting...

I believe it should address these issues but I don't have an ETA currently on when it will get released (it should be fairly soon, there are just a couple remaining issues to work out).

The forums will then email you anytime there is a post in that forums. I will make sure that we post an announcement when the new version is available.
