"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 ran your IQFeed DDE vs. my broker vs. a level II window for some slow-moving options. I would see the level II quote change, then your feed update instantaneously. My broker's DDE, however, would take as much as 30 seconds to update. I am not chasing milliseconds, but half a minute is unacceptable." - Comment from Rob

"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

The commands I am sending in Java are: HM,GOOG,1,1; HM,GOOG,5,1; HX,GOOG,1; None of these work. The line I get back from the socket stream is: !ERROR! Unknown Error. This command works though: SN:YHOO::1::; What could be going on?

The error does not occur anymore, even with DTN.IQ going. I think the error has magically fixed itself, not sure how.. Perhaps a server-side thing?

There weren't any known server issues at this time and I haven't heard of reports from other customers. Please let us know if it happens again and we will look into it deeper.
