Author	Topic: Intraday data retrieval problem (5 messages, Page 1 of 1)
Alyuda -Interested User- Posts: 2 Joined: Aug 20, 2004 Alyuda	Posted: Aug 20, 2004 07:08 AM Msg. 1 of 5 I experience problems retrieving intraday or tick data. All I get is "History data is currently unavailable". Daily data is ok. I get this message even with the shipped examples. What am I doing wrong? How can I get intraday data?

I tried installing both versions of the latest client and developer packages. (BETA and non BETA) on two computers. I am able to connect to the IQFeed service (I am a new user) and get End Of Day historical data using all the different examples, yet I am unable to get historical Ticks and Intraday using any days parameter and using symbols such as: gm, ge, dell and msft. (for which I can get EOD, Weekly, Monthly data). I am using the VC++ compiled example and the VB compiled example (COM / Tick and 5 MInute data), all of which give out the error message: "History data currently unavailable". Thanks.
