"There is no doubt that IQFeed is the best data provider. I am very satisfied with your services. And IQFeed is the only one that I would recommend to my friends. Now, most of them are using your product in China." - Comment from Zhezhe

"Boy, probably spent a thousand hours trying to get ******* API to work right. And now two hours to have something running with IQFeed. Hmmm, guess I was pretty stupid to fight rather than switch all this time. And have gotten more customer service from you guys already than total from them… in five years." - Comment from Jim

"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

"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

"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: Export Volume and Bid / Ask from IQFeed (4 messages, Page 1 of 1)
tradebuster -Interested User- Posts: 2 Joined: Jun 15, 2012	Posted: Jun 15, 2012 06:46 PM Msg. 1 of 4 I use a charting platform that uses IQFeed. When a bar closes it gives me total volume and then breaks that down to volume traded at the bid and ask (not Upticks and Downticks). Is there any way I can get this exact data direct from IQFeed using DDE, or do I need to write a custom app using the API? I am trying to import this data into a trading platform which does not have this data available to it natively. Any suggestions on how to get this data on a time basis? Thanks!

If you do not want to use that software, you are correct that you would need to write a custom app. You may want to check out our Developer Support services at: http://www.iqfeed.net/index.cfm?displayaction=developer§ion=main There is also a list of the data fields there that are available in IQFeed.
