"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
"I had always used ******* but for the past 2 weeks have been trying DTN IQFeed. Customer support has been extraordinary. They call just to make sure your problem hasn't recurred." - Comment from Public Forum
"Very impressed with the quality of your feed - ******* is a real donkey in comparison." - Comment from A.C. via Email
"If you are serious about your trading I would not rely on IB data for serious daytrading. Took me a while to justify the cost of IQ Feed and in the end, it's just a 2 point stop on ES. Better safe than sorry" - Comment from Public Forum
"I was on the phone with a friend who uses CQG and right after the Fed announcement, CQG was as much as 30 seconds behind DTN.IQ. Some quotes were off by as much as 15-18 cents. Your feed never missed a beat." - Comment from Roger
"It’s so nice to be working with real professionals!" - Comment from Len
"Everything is working great with the API. I love it." - Comment from Calvin
"If someone needs the best quality data and backfill beyond what their broker provides at a rate that is the best in the industry, I highly recommend IQFeed." - Comment from Josh via Public Forum
"Boy, probably spent a thousand hours trying to get ******* API to work right. And now two hours to have something running with IQFeed. Hmmm, guess I was pretty stupid to fight rather than switch all this time. And have gotten more customer service from you guys already than total from them… in five years." - Comment from Jim
"This is an excellent value, the system is generous (allowing for 500 stocks) and stable (and really is tick-by-tick), and the support is fantastic." - Comment from Shirin via Email

Hi Jay.
Thanks for the quick reply.
Is it easy to switch the service to satellite broadcast, as that seems like a much better way to do things? Is it still the same kind of streaming interface, ie. instantiate an object to set a Watch on some particular symbols, and let it fire back messages whenever there are changes to the stock? If it does, that would be easy to put into my current design, which uses Visual Basic to create the IQFeedY object.
I'm not the one buying the service, it's for the person I'm building this application for, so I don't know the steps he took to set this up.
Also, you said the satellite broadcast has an SDK. Does that mean it exposes the source code, for me to link with my programming, or is it just an API, similar to the IQFeedY object?
Mike.
Hi All,
The API functions I see all deal with stock symbols as an input parameter. But what if I don't know the stock symbols, and I just want to get any stock symbols that meet a certain criteria, say Volume >= 300000? I know the documentation says that the data is not filtered. Does that mean, then, that I have to maintain my own database of all the stock symbols, and try them all with the IQFeedY object's WatchSymbol method, and try each stock symbol's data against the criteria?
Thanks.
Mike.
