This is because 1 second data is based upon tick data, tick data is limited to 8 days during market hours. Where as 3600 seconds can be inferred from minute data which does not have this restriction.

Ah, I wasn't aware of that time limit, for some reason I thought per/second data was available for the past half-year.

Thanks!

It is, but just not during market hours, try after 3:30 CST and you should be fine.

Thanks Tim,

BTW, I see volume numbers in the HIT data. Are they meaningful and if so what is the meaning?

Zane

PS. IqFeed is awesome, thanks to all!

In regards to minute data, it represents the sum of all last qualified and form T trades for the period given. Other trades are omitted from this number.
