Steve hi,

Could you tell me the symbols for DJIA and NAS100 to use for HIT request? Also how can I modify HIT command to get just daily OHLC values?

Also I've read about your benchmarking codes. Can I have them?

Thanks.

From our symbol lookup on the IQFeed website, I believe these are the symbols you are looking for:

INDU.X DOW JONES 30 INDUSTRIALS CBOT INDEX DJ
NDX.X NASDAQ 100 INDEX DTN INDEX DTN

To get Daily OHLC, you will want to use the Daily history requests (HDX/HDT) instead of the Interval history requests (HIT).

We don't have any code available for benchmarking. The comment you read was an an internal benchamarking app I compiled for another developer using his productID to help troubleshoot an issue. If you would like I can compile the same app with your productID and email it to you but in the other thread it sounded like this was functionality you wanted to implement in your own app rather than wanting to run an exe along side your app.
