Hi Steve,

Just a quick question. I am not having success sending a telnet request of:

w@YM#;

Should this work? I can send other requests such as a historical data request like:

HM,@YM#,2,5;

Attached is a screenshot of what I get back. You can see the response for the Historical data request and also the error when I try to subscribe to basic Level 1 Messages.

Thanks,

Shawn

Any response to this?

Hello, sorry for the delayed response, what socket are you connected to when you issue that command? That should work fine over a level 1 socket, but your other request would need the lookup socket, so you will need two connections for that to work. Let me know though and I am happy to help troubleshoot further if needed.

Hi Tim,

Thanks for the response. Here is what I am doing. I open a putty session and issue a command of localhost 5009. I see time stamps in the console with no data. Now I want to issue a second command to watch a symbol so I start typing w@YM# and hit enter. At this point, nothing happens except that the text I have typed just get's inter-mingled with the timestamps that are being output to the console. How can I send new commands to port 5009?

Try setting the Putty connection type to raw. I think you are probably using telnet or one of the others which will not attach the appropriate line ending characters that IQFeed needs.
