"Just a quick one to say I'm very impressed so far :) The documentation for developers is excellent and I've quickly managed to get an app written to do historical downloads. The system is very robust and pretty quick considering the extent of data that's available. The support guys have been very helpful too, in combination with the forums it's been plain sailing so far!" - Comment from Adam

Author	Topic: +GC4Z vs GC4Z (2 messages, Page 1 of 1)
richinger -Interested User- Posts: 17 Joined: Nov 12, 2004	Posted: Nov 16, 2004 08:19 AM Msg. 1 of 2 I just received my 8080 receiver, to replace the 8000 receiver that was trashed last week. I now see that certain futures symbols that used to be refreshed (e.g. GC4Z) now no longer are ticking after market open, but their counterparts named "+GC4Z" are in fact ticking, and although I can't make the comparison, they appear to have the same prices as the "old style" tickers. What's going on here? I use Ensign for my PC software, and keep charts (daily as well as intraday) on most of the currently trading futures. Now it appears that without a massive effort on my part (copying each of the history files into an equivalent version prepended with a '+'), I will lose all of this data. I used DTN.IQ for the two days that I did not have a receiver, and the GC4Z symbol ticked very nicely in that feed. Is this a problem that I can fix here? Thanks in advance. richinger

The + in front of the symbol will give you a combined session (day/night) in a single symbol. I show GCZ4 ticking away right now. Since both DTN.IQ and Satellite use the same feeds, the symbols are the same for futures. If you are receiving data on +GCZ4 but not GCZ4, it may have something to do with the Ensign symbol list (please verify the symbols in that list). I say this, because both of these symbols are authorized in the same database, so if you are getting data on one of these symbols, you should be getting data on both.
