"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

Hi,

I am using IQFeed API in order to get Fundamental Data from the Streaming Data socket.

There is a field named "Short Interest" in the Fundamental Message Format, but I am getting no value for that field.

Is this normal? Should I have to update or activate something extra in my IQFeed account in order to get this field's value?

Thank you!

What symbol are you looking at? This will happen when there is no valid data for a given field on a given symbol. An example where you should expect a blank return would be for Expiration date on an equity.

I just heard that field is actually no longer part of the feed that we offer, so I need to get that removed from the documentation and the code going forward. My apologies for missing that when the change occurred.
