"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

dhakme -DTN Evangelist- Posts: 150 Joined: Sep 17, 2004	Posted: Sep 17, 2004 02:10 AM Msg. 1 of 2 I'm looking to support IQFeed on a trading platform I'm developing but am a little confused about the capabilities. The advertising blurb says "real time, true tick by tick data..." and then talks about "500 simultaneous symbols can be watched". Does this mean that the real time tick data is restricted to the 500 symbols I nominate? If this is the case does that mean that the DTN-IQ service is more capable in that it support 1300 symbols? I am only interested in NASDAQ trades and ideally I want all listed (~3500) symbols in real time (I cannot get the satellite service as I am not in North America). cheers, Dennis

You would need to choose the symbols and set a watch list on them. DTN.IQ isn't "more capable" we just allow more symbols to be watched with a DTN.IQ subscription.
