"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

"This is an excellent value, the system is generous (allowing for 500 stocks) and stable (and really is tick-by-tick), and the support is fantastic." - Comment from Shirin via Email

"You are either overstaffed or people just don't have problems with your feed because customer support always answers the phone quickly." - Comment from Jay via Email

"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've (at least tried to) set the protocol to 6.1. Could anyone shine any light on why my trade aggressor field appears to have an invalid value? Thanks for your help in advance.

We are looking into this now. As an aside, there will never be any trade aggressor data in the API as far back as April. The exchanges only started providing this data about May 25 of this year. The field should say 0 in this case. Sincerely, Gary Stephen DTN IQFeed Implementation Support Specialist

I ran the same HTT command last yesterday, and got 0 in the TradeAggressor field where it should be. We are still working on it, though.

So I really don't know what happened. Definitely let me know if it happens again. Sincerely, Gary Stephen DTN IQFeed Implementation Support Specialist
