IQFeed Developer Support » Tick history is not working Jan 28, 2005 04:16 PM (Total replies: 8)

I am using my own program and it normally downloads data on daily basis just fine.
The commands for which I could not get a response were:
HT,DISK,1;
HT,ISSX,1;
HT,NT,1;

Every time I tried to write any of these strings to the socket (one at a time, of course), I was getting the following response:
"..Error: History data currently unavailable".

These commands worked during the day yesterday and they are working today, but I had a problem last night for about an hour until I gave up. Socket buffer overflow and the like are not to blame, since I also tried re-logins, computer restarts, longer delays, etc.

I did not try running a sample application though, and it would be a good thing to do next time I encounter this problem.
But, anyway, doesn't the error message "History data currently unavailable" indicate the data feed for ticks was down? Is it the iqfeed client who generates this message, or it is coming from the data server?

The tick history is not working again no matter if I am requesting a single day or several days of data.
It is Thursday, 2005-01-28 01:51 (Iqfeed time)

The EOD history is working though.

The problem persisted next day too. Then I started getting the historical tick data on Jan 17th.
No changes in my software were done. The problem went away suddenly just like it appeared.
Did anybody else experience the issue over the past weekend?

To js2004:
Yes, I remember seing a discussion about it in this forum. However, it was not the reason: the symbols are always entered in the uppercase.
Thank you for the suggestion though.

Is the tick history down?

I am not getting tick data for any symbols.
The feed returns "..Error: History data currently unavailable".

Daily history is working fine though.
