"I just wanted to let you know how fast and easy I found it to integrate IQFeed into our existing Java code using your JNI client. In my experience, such things almost never go so smoothly - great job!" - Comment from Nate

"I just wanted to tell you what a fine job you have been doing. While *******, from what I hear, has been down and out, off and on, IQ feed has held like a champ this week." - Comment from Shirin

"I noticed that ******* quotes locked up shortly after the interest rate announcement yesterday while yours stayed stable." - Comment from Ron in Utah

"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

"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

Author	Topic: Question about Intraday Historical Data (5 messages, Page 1 of 1)

DTN_Gary_Stephen -DTN Guru- Posts: 396 Joined: Jul 3, 2019	Posted: Jun 6, 2023 11:25 AM Msg. 2 of 5 In general: - tick data is held for 180 days (though only the last 8 days are available during trading hours) - minute data is complete since 2007. This is the case for QGC# - daily data can go back much further; for this symbol is goes back to January 1991. Sincerely, Gary Stephen DTN IQFeed Implementation Support Specialist

DTN_Gary_Stephen -DTN Guru- Posts: 396 Joined: Jul 3, 2019	Posted: Aug 17, 2023 03:12 PM Msg. 5 of 5 Correct, you're connected to the wrong port for the type of command you're sending. Only port 5009 (Level 1) and 9200 (level 2) send timestamps. HTD and HTX are historical/lookup commands which should be sent to port 9100.
