"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
"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
"I just wanted to let u know that your data feed/service is by far the best!!! Your unfiltered tick data is excellent for reading order flow and none of your competitors delivers this quality of data!" - Comment from Peter via Email
"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

Hello, new user and cannot easily find options on futures. In particular lets start with:

Crude oil (WTI) June 2013 Call - 120Strike.
There is about 30,000 open interest on this call and about 60 contracts traded on friday. I would like to find the symbol for this please.

As I am new I am just unfamiliar with the symbol structure so once I get this one I should be able to figure out others.

Cheers.

the symbol is QCM13C12000

We do have our symbol Lookup on our web site www.iqfeed.net or the the symbol Guide on the same site.
You can also contact our support department on that site or send a email to our support department at support@iqfeed.net

Hey LorenF,

I tried entering it though multicharts manually and there is no data.

I then searched the symbol lookup on your site with QCM for the search string under name/description or symbol but it says that no records exist.

I must be doing something wrong...

I missed a letter in the list it should have been QCLM13C12000

in the Multi charts: Go to the quote manager, add symbol, by Data source, IQfeed
select options and the catagory is Future options.
Then put in the Symbol bos QCLM13C12000
There will be a list below to choose from.
Select add, press ok and close
it will be in your symbol list.
