"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: IQFeed with Sierra Chart - how to export? (4 messages, Page 1 of 1)
mooq -Interested User- Posts: 1 Joined: Jul 1, 2013	Posted: Jul 1, 2013 02:13 PM Msg. 1 of 4 I have Sierra Chart as my charting with IQFeed. I want to maintain a database of my own containing markets I watch with a granularity of one second (don't need all the ticks). If I export from sierra chart, it exports all data from 2006 which is OK for my first export but I need to refresh the data weekly. I'm wondering if there's a way to get it directly from IQFeed or by using DDE with Excel or something like that? I want: Symbol,Date,Time,Open, High, Low, Close, Vol for each second. I then want to be able to update this weekly by refreshing my database somehow. Would appreciate any ideas.

You will need a time and sales application that pulls data in 1 second time captures. From the IQFeed you can request the data in 1 second time blocks. We have some developer tools that will do the work but nothing available in the regular softwares. There are some 3rd party softwares that may have the capability to capture the data you are looking for.
