The version of IQFeed currently in development will have this available. Jay Froscheiser DTN Market Access, LLC.

Posted: Mar 11, 2005 02:21 PM Msg. 3 of 3 Actually, IQFeed v2.3.0.2 does support Future chains via COM, but not via sockets. You can use the IOptionChainLookup2 interface which has the following functions: GetFutureOrSpreadSymbols(BSTR bsClient, BSTR bsClientVersion, BSTR bsSymbol, BSTR bsSecurityType, BSTR bsMonthCodes, int iNearMonths, BOOL bLeaps, BSTR bsYears, BSTR pbsSymbols); GetFutureOrSpreadSymbolsByFilter(BSTR bsClient, BSTR bsClientVersion, BSTR bsSymbol, BSTR bsSecurityType, BSTR bsMonthCodes, int iNearMonths, BOOL bLeaps, BSTR bsYears, int iFilterType, double dFilter1, double dFilter2, BSTR pbsBaseSymbols); GetOptionOrFutOptionSymbols(BSTR bsClient, BSTR bsClientVersion, BSTR bsSymbol, BSTR bsSecurityType, BSTR bsMonthCodes, int iNearMonths, BOOL bLeaps, BSTR bsYears, BSTR bsRequestPutsCalls, BSTR pbsBaseSymbols); GetOptionOrFutOptionSymbolsByFilter(BSTR bsClient, BSTR bsClientVersion, BSTR bsSymbol, BSTR bsSecurityType, BSTR bsMonthCodes, int iNearMonths, BOOL bLeaps, BSTR bsYears, int iFilterType, double dFilter1, double dFilter2, BSTR bsRequestPutsCalls, BSTR pbsBaseSymbols); In IQFeed v2.3.0.3, this functionality will also be available via sockets.
