"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

"Thank God for your Data Feed as the only Zippers I see are on my pants (LOL), and no more 200 pip spikes to mess up charts." - Comment from Spiro via Email

"Previously I was using *******. IQFeed is WAY more economical, and for my charting needs is just as good, if not better." - Comment from Public Forum Post

"Very impressed with the quality of your feed - ******* is a real donkey in comparison." - Comment from A.C. via Email

"I was with ******* for 4 years at $230 a month, this is a huge savings for me, GOD BLESS YOU PEOPLE," - Comment from T.S. via Email

"I just wanted to say how happy I am with your service. I was able to download the API docs last week and I was able to replicate Interactive Brokers historical bar queries and realtime bar queries over the weekend. That was about one of the fastest integrations that I've ever done and it works perfectly!!!!" - Comment from Jason via Email

"The service is great, I see a noticeable improvement in my volume profiles over [broker]'s data feed" - Comment from Larry

"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

"This beats the pants off CQG, I am definitely switching to the ProphetX 3.0!" - Comment from Stephen

"Thanks for the great product and support. During this week of high volume trading, my QuoteTracker + IQ Feed setup never missed a beat. Also, thanks for your swiftness in responding to data issues. I was on ******* for a few years before I made the switch over early this year, and wish I had done it a long time ago." - Comment from Ken

I send a fundamental request (used as a ping [which I requested a few years ago, but haven't seen]), but get no reply in the new system. As the specially requested fundamental message ( f;symbol]<CR><LR> ) is my trigger to action, my action never happens in the new system (148 farm), but still works fine on the 156 farm. I checked the new docs and there has been no change from the old. Help. Terry Terry Laughlin Buy low, soar high.

Can you explain a bit more about the following comment? "(used as a ping [which I requested a few years ago, but haven't seen])" What exactly are you trying to accomplish with the force command? Are you simply wanting to verify that the server is still connected or are you acutally wanting the data that you are requesting for that symbol?

I am using the fundamental request as a ping. I need to pass a message from an interrupt routine where action is supposed to be limited to an somewhat lengthy (time wise) routine. SO, I ping (fundamental request) the server and when I get the reply and verify that it is the reply to my ping request, I trigger my time lengthy action routine. terry Terry Laughlin Buy low, soar high.
