"With HUGE volume on AAPL and RIMM for 2 days, everyone in a trading room was whining about freezes, crashes and lag with *******, RealTick, TS and Cyber. InvestorRT with IQFeed was rock solid. I mean SOLID!" - Comment from Public IRC Chat

"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

Author	Topic: Invalid Symbols - Used To Be Valid (3 messages, Page 1 of 1)
Lewcifer -Interested User- Posts: 33 Joined: Jul 8, 2006 Lew Payne	Posted: Oct 4, 2007 01:15 PM Msg. 1 of 3 The following symbols keep coming up as invalid, yet they used to be valid as of several months ago. In addition, they are still listed in your online "symbol search" facility: CL# HO# NG# PN# QRB# @QO# @QI# @QC# QHG# HG# PL# PA# GC# SI# CFN7 Con someone please tell me what's going on, and why I'm no longer able to track them. It used to be that I could track them, depending on which server I was connected to. I didn't think much of it at the time, attributing it to ticker farm upgrades you were doing. Thanks in advance...

Back in September 2006, NYMEX and COMEX started charging $1.00 a month each for delayed quotes. Our servers were not fully compatible with authorizing this change, so you still continued to recieve these quotes for free until around July, when our first server farm was upgraded. That is when you were only able to get the quotes sometimes, depending on the server. Now that we have upgraded both server farms, you will no longer get those quotes without the delayed COMEX and NYMEX authorization. Please email support@iqfeed.net with your login id or account number if you would like to add these. Kind regards, Sarah
